The Polarity Reversal of Lightning‐Generated Sky Wave

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Wenhao Hou

The polarity reversal of the lightning‐generated first sky wave as a function of the observation distance is studied using a novel approach combining the finite‐difference time domain (FDTD) method and the superposition principle of electromagnetic waves. ...

The BUFFALO HST Survey

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Pascale Jablonka, David Richard Harvey, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Mathilde Jauzac, Huanyuan Shan, Hakim Atek, Anja Von der Linden, Matthieu Schaller, Céline Tchernin, Richard Massey, Johan Richard

The Beyond Ultra-deep Frontier Fields and Legacy Observations (BUFFALO) is a 101 orbit + 101 parallel Cycle 25 Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury program taking data from 2018 to 2020. BUFFALO will expand existing coverage of the Hubble Frontier Fields ...

Vague de surf en bassin

Cédric Maxime Egolf

A design of a wave pool for surfing is defined in this work. The geometry is designed in order to optimize the relatively small area available for the project. The bathymetry is suited to the different levels of surfers. A wave generation system composed o ...

Reconstructing the spectral shape of a stochastic gravitational wave background with LISA

Daniel Garcia Figueroa

We present a set of tools to assess the capabilities of LISA to detect and reconstruct the spectral shape and amplitude of a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB). We first provide the LISA power-law sensitivity curve and binned power-law sensiti ...

Mapping the site-specific accuracy of loop-based local pulse wave velocity estimation and reflection magnitude: a 1D arterial network model analysis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers

Objective: Local pulse wave velocity (PWV) can be estimated from the waterhammer equation and is an essential component of wave separation analysis. However, previous studies have demonstrated inaccuracies in the estimations of local PWV due to the presenc ...

Gravitational Mass Carried by Sound Waves

Angelo Esposito

We show that the commonly accepted statement that sound waves do not transport mass is only true at linear order. Using effective field theory techniques, we confirm the result found by Nicolis and Penco [Phys. Rev. 13 97, 134516 (2018)] for zero -temperat ...

Generalized dissipation dilution in strained mechanical resonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Nils Johan Engelsen, Sergey Fedorov, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Mechanical resonators with high quality factors are widely used in precision experiments, ranging from gravitational wave detection and force sensing to quantum optomechanics. Beams and membranes are well known to exhibit flexural modes with enhanced quali ...

Ability of LIGO and LISA to probe the equation of state of the early Universe

Daniel Garcia Figueroa

The expansion history of the Universe between the end of inflation and the onset of radiation-domination (RD) is currently unknown. If the equation of state during this period is stiffer than that of radiation, w > 1/3, the gravitational wave (GW) backgrou ...

Inflationary perturbations with Lifshitz scaling

Sergey Sibiryakov

Instead of Lorentz invariance, gravitational degrees of freedom may obey Lifshitz scaling at high energies, as it happens in Horava's proposal for quantum gravity. We study consequences of this proposal for the spectra of primordial perturbations generated ...

Boosting the dark matter signal with Coulomb resonances

Rakhi Nandalal Mahbubani, Kin Shanho Eliaou Mimouni

We show that the presence of nearby Coulombic resonances at finite energy could lead to the enhancement of the dark matter annihilation cross section at specific non-zero velocities correlated with the mass splitting between the dark matter pair and that o ...
