The relativistic foundations of synchrotron radiation

Special relativity (SR) determines the properties of synchrotron radiation, but the corresponding mechanisms are frequently misunderstood. Time dilation is often invoked among the causes, whereas its role would violate the principles of SR. Here it is show ...

Mitigating the impact of errors in travel time reporting on mode choice modelling

Michel Bierlaire, Aurélie Glerum, Giovanni Longo, Amanda Blomberg Stathopoulos, Silvia Francesca Varotto

Travel time is a major component in understanding travel demand. However, the quantification of demand and forecasting hinges on understanding how travel time is perceived and reported. Travel time reporting is typically subject to errors and this paper fo ...

Models of the strongly lensed quasar DES J0408-5354

Eduardo Sanchez, Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Adriano Agnello

We present detailed modelling of the recently discovered, quadruply lensed quasar J0408-5354, with the aim of interpreting its remarkable configuration: besides three quasar images (A, B, D) around the main deflector (G1), a fourth image (C) is significant ...

Thermodynamics in the hydrologic response: Travel time formulation and application to Alpine catchments

Andrea Rinaldo, Michael Lehning, Bettina Schaefli, Francesco Comola

This paper presents a spatially-explicit model for hydro-thermal response simulations of Alpine catchments, accounting for advective and non-advective energy fluxes in stream networks characterized by arbitrary degrees of geomorphological complexity. The r ...

Qualitatively Incorrect Features in the TDDFT Spectrum of Thiophene-Based Compounds

Basile Curchod, Alberto Fabrizio, Antonio Prlj, Leonard Floryan

Ab initio molecular electronic structure computations of thiophene-based compounds constitute an active field of research prompted by the growing interest in low-cost materials for organic electronic devices. In particular, the modeling of electronically e ...

Stochastic interpretation of the advection diffusion equation and its relevance to bed load transport

Christophe Ancey, Joris Heyman

The advection diffusion equation is one of the most widespread equations in physics. It arises quite often in the context of sediment transport, e.g., for describing time and space variations in the particle activity (the solid volume of particles in motio ...

2DVD Data Revisited: Multifractal Insights into Cuts of the Spatiotemporal Rainfall Process

Alexis Berne

Data collected during four heavy rainfall events that occurred in Ardeche (France) with the help of a 2D video disdrometer (2DVD) are used to investigate the structure of the raindrop distribution in both space and time. A first type of analysis is based o ...

Flow and Temperature Dynamics in the Hydrologic Response: Travel Time Formulation and Application to Alpine Catchments

Andrea Rinaldo, Michael Lehning, Bettina Schaefli, Francesco Comola

We present a travel time formulation of water and energy transport at sub-catchment scale, resulting in a closed form solution for water temperature evolution in the subsoil compartment. The derived equations are implemented in Alpine3D, a physically-based ...

Managing Evolving Uncertainty in Trajectory Databases

Saket Sathe, Ho Young Jeung

Modern positioning technologies enable collecting trajectories from moving objects across different locations over time, typically containing time-varying measurement errors of positioning systems. Unfortunately, current models on uncertain trajectories ar ...
