The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Improving Lag Detection with an Extended Multiyear Baseline

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Yuguang Chen, Yue Shen, Feng Li

We investigate the effects of extended multiyear light curves (9 yr photometry and 5 yr spectroscopy) on the detection of time lags between the continuum variability and broad-line response of quasars at z greater than or similar to 1.5, and compare with t ...

Probing alloy formation using different excitonic species: The particular case of InGaN

Nicolas Grandjean, Raphaël Butté, Gordon Jens Callsen

Since the 1960s, alloys are grouped into two classes, featuring bound states in the bandgap (I - GaP:N, ZnTe:O, etc.) or additional, non-discrete, band states (II - SiGe, GaAsP, InGaAs, etc.). Therefore, one can observe either a rich and informative zoo of ...

Association of Both Inhibitory and Stimulatory G alpha Subunits Implies Adenylyl Cyclase 5 Deactivation

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen, Daniele Narzi

Adenylyl cyclase (AC) generates cyclic AMP required for a variety of cellular functions, and its regulation plays a major role in cellular signal transduction in eukaryotes and prokaryotes. All membrane-bound AC isoforms in eukaryotes can be activated by s ...

Multiple Stellar Populations in Globular Clusters

Carmela Lardo

Globular clusters (GCs) exhibit star-to-star variations in specific elements (e.g., He, C, N, O, Na, Al) that bear the hallmark of high-temperature H-burning. These abundance variations can be observed spectroscopically and also photometrically, with the a ...

COSMOGRAIL XVII. Time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Sun Hee Kim, Hung-Hsu Chan, Malte Tewes, Vivien François Bonvin, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate

We present time-delay estimates for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080. Our results are based on almost daily observations for seven months at the ESO MPIA 2.2m telescope at La Silla Observatory, reaching a signal-to-noise ratio of about 1000 per quas ...

T-RECS: A Virtual Commissioning Tool for Software-Based Control of Electric Grids – Design, Validation, and Operation

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Lorenzo Enrique Reyes Chamorro, Wajeb Saab, Roman Rudnik, Jagdish Prasad Achara

In real-time control of electric grids using multiple software agents, the control performance depends on (1) the proper functioning of the software agents, i.e., absence of software faults, and (2) the behavior of software agents in the presence of non-id ...

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. ...
