Precision luminosity measurement at hadron colliders

This thesis links two realms of particle accelerator dynamics and precision particle physics. The achievement of precise luminosity measurement at hadron colliders is enabled with dedicated luminometers. For the Run 3 period, the luminometer upgrade was pl ...

Small-amplitude Red Giants Elucidate the Nature of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch as a Standard Candle

Richard Irving Anderson, Nolan Wayne Koblischke

The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) is an important standard candle for determining luminosity distances. Although several 105 small-amplitude red giant stars (SARGs) have been discovered, variability was previously considered irrelevant for the TRGB as ...

Characterisation of detachment in the MAST-U Super-X divertor using multi-wavelength imaging of 2D atomic and molecular emission processes

Basil Duval, Artur Perek, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh

In this work, we provide the first 2D spatially resolved description of radiative detachment in MAST-U Super-X L-mode divertor plasmas. The Super-X magnetic configuration was designed to achieve reduced heat- and particle loads at the divertor target compa ...

Gaia Focused Product Release: Radial velocity time series of long-period variables

Stephan Morgenthaler, Shuangqing Liao

Context. The third Gaia Data Release (DR3) provided photometric time series of more than 2 million long-period variable (LPV) candidates. Anticipating the publication of full radial-velocity data planned with Data Release 4, this Focused Product Release (F ...

Revealing galaxy candidates out to z similar to 16 with JWST observations of the lensing cluster SMACS0723

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek, Johan Richard

One of the main goals of the JWST is to study the first galaxies in the Universe. We present a systematic photometric analysis of very distant galaxies in the first JWST deep field towards the massive lensing cluster SMACS0723. As a result, we report the d ...

Potential scientific synergies in weak lensing studies between the CSST and Euclid space probes

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Jean-Luc Starck, Huanyuan Shan

Aims. With the next generation of large surveys poised to join the ranks of observational cosmology in the near future, it is important to explore their potential synergies and to maximize their scientific outcomes. In this study, we aim to investigate the ...

To grow old and peculiar: Survey of anomalous variable stars in M80 with age determinations using K2 and Gaia

Henryka Ewa Netzel

The globular cluster Messier 80 was monitored by the Kepler space telescope for 80 days during the K2 mission. Continuous, high-precision photometry of such an old, compact cluster allows us for studies of its variable star population in unprecedented deta ...

Gaia Data Release 3 Summary of the variability processing and analysis

Context. Gaia has been in operations since 2014, and two full data releases (DR) have been delivered so far: DR1 in 2016 and DR2 in 2018. The third Gaia data release expands from the early data release (EDR3) in 2020, which contained the five-parameter ast ...

The first generations of stars in the Local Group

Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

The different projects of this thesis contribute to improving our understanding of the early chemical evolution of the galaxies.The standard cosmological model states an hierarchical formation of the galaxies, the dwarf galaxies being the first stellar sys ...

Searching for globular cluster chemical anomalies on the main sequence of a young massive cluster

Carmela Lardo

The spectroscopic and photometric signals of the star-to-star abundance variations found in globular clusters seem to be correlated with global parameters like the cluster's metallicity, mass, and age. Understanding this behaviour could bring us closer to ...
