The 'neutron deficit' in the JET tokamak

The measured D-D neutron rate of neutral beam heated JET baseline and hybrid H-modes in deuterium is found to be between approximately 50% and 100% of the neutron rate expected from the TRANSP code, depending on the plasma parameters. A number of candidate ...

Molecular gas properties of a lensed star-forming galaxy at z similar to 3.6: a case study

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Johan Richard

We report on the galaxy MACSJ0032-arc at z(CO) = 3.6314 discovered during the Herschel Lensing snapshot Survey of massive galaxy clusters, and strongly lensed by the cluster MACSJ0032.1+1808. The successful detections of its rest-frame ultraviolet (UV), op ...

Synthetic neutron camera and spectrometer in JET based on AFSI- ASCOT simulations

Henri Weisen

The ASCOT Fusion Source Integrator (AFSI) has been used to calculate neutron production rates and spectra corresponding to the JET 19-channel neutron camera (KN3) and the time-of-flight spectrometer (TOFOR) as ideal diagnostics, without detector-related ef ...

Multivalley engineering in semiconductor microcavities

Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac, Timothy Chi Hin Liew

We consider exciton-photon coupling in semiconductor microcavities in which separate periodic potentials have been embedded for excitons and photons. We show theoretically that this system supports degenerate ground-states appearing at non-zero inplane mom ...

Ultralight Dark Matter Resonates with Binary Pulsars

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

We consider the scenario where dark matter (DM) is represented by an ultralight classical scalar field performing coherent periodic oscillations. We point out that such DM perturbs the dynamics of binary systems either through its gravitational field or vi ...

Detecting unresolved binary stars in Euclid VIS images

Frédéric Courbin, Thibault Adrien Kuntzer

Measuring a weak gravitational lensing signal to the level required by the next generation of space-based surveys demands exquisite reconstruction of the point-spread function (PSF). However, unresolved binary stars can significantly distort the PSF shape. ...

The effect of the environment on the structure, morphology and star formation history of intermediate-redshift galaxies

Pascale Jablonka

With the aim of understanding the effect of the environment on the star formation history and morphological transformation of galaxies, we present a detailed analysis of the colour, morphology and internal structure of cluster and field galaxies at 0.4

Neutronics modeling of the CROCUS reactor with SERPENT and PARCS codes

Andreas Pautz, Mathieu Hursin, Daniel Jerôme Siefman, Adolfo Rais

This paper reports the methodology used for the neutronic modelling of the CROCUS reactor and discusses the challenges encountered during the process. Full-core steady-state neutronics solutions were computed with the PARCS code. The Serpent Monte Carlo co ...

The formation of the Milky Way halo and its dwarf satellites; a NLTE-1D abundance analysis

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North

We present a homogeneous set of accurate atmospheric parameters for a complete sample of very and extremely metal-poor stars in the dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) Sculptor, Ursa Minor, Sextans, Fornax, Botes I, Ursa Major II, and Leo IV. We also deliver ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: dynamics of ionized and neutral gas in the Lagoon nebula (M 8)

Carmela Lardo

Aims. We present a spectroscopic study of the dynamics of the ionized and neutral gas throughout the Lagoon nebula (M 8), using VLT-FLAMES data from the Gaia-ESO Survey. The new data permit exploration of the physical connections between the nebular gas an ...
