Whose knowledge, whose values? An empirical analysis of power in transdisciplinary sustainability research

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Livia Bianca Fritz

The participation of practitioners in transdisciplinary sustainability research has been heralded as a promising tool for producing ‘robust’ knowledge and engendering societal transformations. Although transdisciplinary approaches have been advanced as an ...

Precision Positioning of Microrobots for Multi-Object Spectrographs

Luzius Gregor Kronig

How does one study the evolution of the Milky Way, or the expansion of the Universe, or explore the mysteries of Dark energy? To investigate these complex topics, astronomers require data, and a great deal of it, in the form of the spectra of stars, galaxi ...

The core of the massive cluster merger MACS J0417.5-1154 as seen by VLT/MUSE

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac, Richard Massey, Johan Richard

We present a multiwavelength analysis of the core of the massive galaxy cluster MACS J0417.5-1154 (z = 0.441). Our analysis takes advantage of Very Large Telescope/Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer observations which allowthe spectroscopic confirmation of ...

Development and Characterisation of Silicon Photomultiplier Multichannel Arrays for the Readout of a Large Scale Scintillating Fibre Tracker

Axel Kuonen

The current LHCb detector will continue collecting data until the long shutdown 2 (2019/2020). It will be upgraded in order to operate at higher luminosity. To achieve this, two major changes are required. First the Level-0 hardware trigger limited to 1,M ...

Pushing amplitude equations far from threshold: application to the supercritical Hopf bifurcation in the cylinder wake

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Philippe Meliga, Cristobal Manuel Arratia Martinez, Vladislav Mantic Lugo

The purpose of this review article is to push amplitude equations as far as possible from threshold. We focus on the Stuart-Landau amplitude equation describing the supercritical Hopf bifurcation of the flow in the wake of a cylinder for critical Reynolds ...
