Non-perturbative probability distribution function for cosmological counts in cells

We present a non-perturbative calculation of the 1-point probability distribution function (PDF) for the spherically-averaged matter density field. The PDF is represented as a path integral and is evaluated using the saddle-point method. It factorizes into ...

Characterising the environment and the line of sight of gravitationally lensed quasars using weak lensing technique

Olga Tihhonova

Estimates of the Hubble constant from different cosmological probes produce discrepant results in the framework of the standard cosmological model. In order to assess whether this tension is coming from unaccounted systematic errors, or is hinting towards ...

Optimization of Spin-Wave Propagation with Enhanced Group Velocities by Exchange-Coupled Ferrimagnet-Ferromagnet Bilayers

Dirk Grundler, Vinayak Shantaram Bhat, Kyongmo An

We report broadband spectroscopy and numerical analysis by which we explore propagating spin waves in a magnetic bilayer consisting of a 23-nm thick permalloy film deposited on 130-nm thick Y_3Fe_5O_12. In the bilayer, we observe a characteristic mode that ...

Time-sliced perturbation theory with primordial non-Gaussianity and effects of large bulk flows on inflationary oscillating features

Mikhail Ivanov

We extend the formalism of time-sliced perturbation theory (TSPT) for cosmological large-scale structure to include non-Gaussian initial conditions. We show that in such a case the TSPT interaction vertices acquire new contributions whose time-dependence f ...

Probing Molecular Chirality by Orbital-Angular-Momentum-Carrying X-ray Pulses

A twisted X-ray beam with orbital angular momentum is employed in a theoretical study to probe molecular chirality. A nonlocal response description of the matter-field coupling is adopted to account for the field short wavelength and the structured spatial ...

Side emissions during EC injection for PDI studies in FTU tokamak

Cristian Galperti, Gabriele Grosso

The evidence of Parametric Decay Instabilities (PDI) excited by the ECH power injected in O-Mode has been explored in FTU Tokamak, using the Collective Thomson Scattering (CTS) diagnostic. The experiments show evidences to support the hypothesis of low-thr ...

Effect of bed roughness on tsunami-like waves and induced loads on buildings

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich

Tsunami, impulse-waves and dam-break waves afflict humanity with casualties and damages. An insight into the flow mechanisms of these waves is important to provide safety and reduce reconstruction costs. This experimental study focuses on the effect of bed ...

Phase control of spin waves based on a magnetic defect in a one-dimensional magnonic crystal

Dirk Grundler, Sho Watanabe

Magnonic crystals are interesting for spin-wave based data processing. We investigate one-dimensional magnonic crystals (1D MCs) consisting of bistable Co20Fe60B20 nanostripes separated by 75 nm wide air gaps. By adjusting the magnetic history, we program ...

Spatial Encoding of Translational Optic Flow in Planar Scenes by Elementary Motion Detector Arrays

Dario Floreano, Julien Jean Denis Nicolas Lecoeur, Emily Baird

Elementary Motion Detectors (EMD) are well-established models of visual motion estimation in insects. The response of EMDs are tuned to specific temporal and spatial frequencies of the input stimuli, which matches the behavioural response of insects to wid ...

Multi-directional emission and detection of spin waves propagating in yttrium iron garnet with wavelengths down to about 100 nm

Dirk Grundler

We performed broadband spin-wave spectroscopy on 200 nm thick yttrium iron garnet containing arrays of partially embedded magnetic nanodisks. Using integrated coplanar waveguides (CPWs), we studied the excitation and transmission of spin waves depending on ...
