The Pristine dwarf galaxy survey-V. The edges of the dwarf galaxy Hercules

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We present a new spectroscopic study of 175 stars in the vicinity of the dwarf galaxy Hercules (d similar to 132 kpc) with data from the Anglo-Australian Telescope and its AAOmega spectrograph together with the Two Degree Field multi-object system to solve ...

3D Printed Acoustically Programmable Soft Microactuators

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Murat Kaynak, Amit Yedidia Dolev

The concept of creating all-mechanical soft microrobotic systems has great potential to address outstanding challenges in biomedical applications, and introduce more sustainable and multifunctional products. To this end, magnetic fields and light have been ...

Subhalo abundance matching through the lens of a hydrodynamical simulation

Ginevra Favole

We use the IllustrisTNG100 hydrodynamical simulation to study the dependence of the galaxy two-point correlation function on a broad range of secondary subhalo and galactic properties. We construct galaxy mock catalogues adopting a standard subhalo abundan ...

Estuarine tidal response to sea level rise: The significance of entrance restriction

Giovanni De Cesare, Steve Hottinger

Estuarine environments, as dynamic low-lying transition zones between rivers and the open sea, are vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR). To evaluate the potential impacts of SLR on estuarine responses, it is necessary to examine the altered tidal dynamics, i ...

How stellar rotation shapes the colour-magnitude diagram of the massive intermediate-age star cluster NGC 1846

Carmela Lardo

We present a detailed study of stellar rotation in the massive 1.5 Gyr old cluster NGC 1846 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Similar to other clusters at this age, NGC 1846 shows an extended main-sequence turn-off (eMSTO), and previous photometric studies ha ...

Effects of entrance conditions on tidal hydrodynamics in idealized prismatic estuaries under sea level rise

Steve Hottinger

Understanding tidal hydrodynamics response to sea level rise (SLR) in estuaries is essential to predict future potential issues such as shoreline erosion, more frequent and intense flooding, coastal wetland threatening, and their economic and ecological as ...

Tidal Interactions and Mergers in Intermediate-redshift EDisCS Clusters

Pascale Jablonka

We study the fraction of tidal interactions and mergers (TIMs) with well-identified observability timescales (f(TIM)) in group, cluster, and accompanying field galaxies and its dependence on redshift (z), cluster velocity dispersion (sigma), and environmen ...

Dynamics of falling films on the outside of a vertical rotating cylinder: waves, rivulets and dripping transitions

François Gallaire, Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman

Falling liquid films on the underside of a plate or on the outside of a rotating cylinder are subject to a destabilizing body force. The evolution of the film topology is determined by interactions between the Kapitza and the Rayleigh-Taylor instability, l ...

Stokes' third problem for Herschel-Bulkley fluids.

Christophe Ancey, Belinda Margaret Bates

Herschel-Bulkley materials can be set in motion when a sufficiently high shear stress or body force is applied to them. We investigate the behaviour of a layer of Herschel-Bulkley fluid when it is suddenly tilted and subject to gravitational forces. The ma ...

Stellar-to-halo mass relation of cluster galaxies

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan

In the formation of galaxy groups and clusters, the dark matter haloes containing satellite galaxies are expected to be tidally stripped in gravitational interactions with the host. We use galaxy-galaxy weak lensing to measure the average mass of dark matt ...
