Population gradient in the Sextans dSph: comprehensive mapping of a dwarf galaxy by Suprime-Cam

Pascale Jablonka

We present the deep and wide V and I-c photometry of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) taken by the Suprime-Cam imager on the Subaru Telescope, which extends out to the tidal radius. The colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) reaches two magnitudes below ...

Impacts of wave and tidal forcing on 3D nearshore processes on natural beaches. Part I: Flow and turbulence fields

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

The major objective of this study was to develop further understanding of 3D nearshore hydrodynamics under a variety of wave and tidal forcing conditions. The main tool used was a comprehensive 3D numerical model – combining the flow module of Delft3D with ...

Ising pairing in superconducting NbSe2 atomic layers

László Forró, Helmuth Berger

The properties of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides arising from strong spin-orbit interactions and valley-dependent Berry curvature effects have recently attracted considerable interest(1-7). Although single-particle and excitonic phenomena ...

SATELLITE CONSTELLATION DESIGN FOR THE SOLVE MISSION INVESTIGATING DIURNAL CYCLES OF VEGETATION PHENOMENA

Anton Ivanov, Luzius Gregor Kronig, Sung Wook Paek, Olivier Ladislas Alain de Weck

This paper discusses the problem of finding an optimal satellite constellation for the SOLVE (Satellites Observing Lakes and Vegetation Environments) Mission. A key requirement of this mission is a temporal resolution of several observations per day. A sem ...

Impacts of wave and tidal forcing on 3D nearshore processes on natural beaches. Part II. Sediment transport

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

This is the second of two papers on the 3D numerical modeling of nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics. In Part I, the focus was on surf and swash zone hydrodynamics in the cross-shore and longshore directions. Here, we consider nearshore processes with an e ...

Statistical characterization of spatiotemporal sediment dynamics in the Venice lagoon

Andrea Rinaldo, Gianluca Botter

Characterizing the dynamics of suspended sediment is crucial when investigating the long-term evolution of tidal landscapes. Here we apply a widely tested mathematical model which describes the dynamics of cohesive and noncohesive sediments, driven by the ...

Radiography appliance comprising a movable arm

Thomas Gabella

The invention relates to a radiography appliance comprising a column and a movable arm mounted such that it slides along the column and rotates about an axis oriented perpendicularly to the main direction of the column, one end of the arm comprising a dete ...

Photophysical and Computational Analysis of a Symmetrical Fluorene-Based Janus Dione Derivative

Alma Rosa Morales Morales

Molecular symmetry plays an important role in the physical characteristics and spectra of a molecule. However, experimental results can sometimes be counterintuitive due to unpredictable properties of a molecule. Photophysical characterization of a centros ...

The last stages of star formation in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans

Romaine Theler

This thesis is anchored in the research of better understanding of the chemical evolution of galaxies. Many dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) are orbiting the Milky Way displaying various star formation histories. The formation of these dwarf galaxies and t ...

Dimensional crossover in the quantum transport behaviour of the natural topological insulator Aleksite

Klaus Kern, Marko Burghard, Pascal Gehring, Alexander Ronald Hoyer, Kristina Vaklinova

Three-dimensional topological insulators comprise topologically protected surface states displaying massless, Dirac-like linear dispersion with spin-momentum locking. Electrical conduction through such surface states has been documented to manifest itself ...
