Towards the validation of neutron noise simulators: qualification of data acquisition systems

Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Mathieu Hursin, Oskari Ville Pakari, Axel Guy Marie Laureau, Adolfo Rais

This paper deals with the processes involved in the generation of reliable experimental data for the validation of computer simulations. In the field of neutron noise, the analysis of results is based on spectral features of the detector signals in the fre ...

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 ...

Numerical simulation of a collapsing bubble subject to gravity

Mohamed Farhat, Outi Supponen

The present paper focuses on the simulation of the expansion and aspherical collapse of a laser-generated bubble subjected to an acceleration field and comparison of the results with instances from high-speed videos. The interaction of the liquid and gas i ...

High-redshift supernova rates measured with the gravitational telescope A 1689

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Johan Richard

Aims. We present a ground-based, near-infrared search for lensed supernovae behind the massive cluster Abell 1689 at z = 0.18, which is one of the most powerful gravitational telescopes that nature provides. Methods. Our survey was based on multi-epoch J-b ...

(Re-)inventing the relativistic wheel: gravity, cosets, and spinning objects

Alexander Monin, Francesco Riva, Solomon G Shamsuddin Osman Endlich

Space-time symmetries are a crucial ingredient of any theoretical model in physics. Unlike internal symmetries, which may or may not be gauged and/or spontaneously broken, space-time symmetries do not admit any ambiguity: they are gauged by gravity, and an ...

Effects of LHRF on toroidal rotation in Alcator C-Mod plasmas

Christian Gabriel Theiler

Application of lower hybrid range of frequencies (LHRF) waves can induce both co- and counter-current directed changes in toroidal rotation in Alcator C-Mod plasmas, depending on the target plasma current, electron density, confinement regime and magnetic ...

Searching for soft relativistic jets in core-collapse supernovae with the IceCube optical follow-up program

Matthias Wolf, Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Xiaoxia Bai

Context. Transient neutrino sources such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and supernovae (SNe) are hypothesized to emit bursts of high-energy neutrinos on a time-scale of less than or similar to 100 s. While GRB neutrinos would be produced in high relativistic j ...

Nucleosynthesis And The Inhomogeneous Chemical Evolution Of The Carina Dwarf Galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

The detailed abundances of 23 chemical elements in nine bright red giant branch stars in the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy are presented based on high-resolution spectra gathered at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) and Magellan telescopes. A spherical model ...

Constraints on high-energy neutrino emission from SN 2008D

Matthias Wolf, Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Xiaoxia Bai

SN 2008D, a core collapse supernova at a distance of 27 Mpc, was serendipitously discovered by the Swift satellite through an associated X-ray flash. Core collapse supernovae have been observed in association with long gamma-ray bursts and X-ray flashes an ...

The Cas A-Like Snr 1E 0102.2-7219 In The Small Magellanic Cloud: An Asymmetric Bipolar Explosion

Frédéric Vogt

We have used the Wide Field Spectrograph on the 2.3 m telescope at Siding Spring Observatory to map the [O III] lambda 5007 dynamics of the young oxygen-rich supernova remnant 1E 0102.2-7219 in the Small Magellanic Cloud. From the resultant data cube, we h ...
