The effect of pressure-anisotropy-driven kinetic instabilities on magnetic field amplification in galaxy clusters

Context. The intracluster medium (ICM) is the low-density diffuse gas that fills the space between galaxies within galaxy clusters. It is primarily composed of magnetized plasma, which reaches virial temperatures of up to 10(8) K, probably due to mergers o ...

A radio ridge connecting two galaxy clusters in a filament of the cosmic web

Claudio Gheller

Galaxy clusters are the most massive gravitationally bound structures in the Universe. They grow by accreting smaller structures in a merging process that produces shocks and turbulence in the intracluster gas. We observed a ridge of radio emission connect ...

Experimental results of gravity currents travelling over a fissured bed

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents are geophysical flows having large impact on human life and on the environment. The need to prevent and mitigate their negative consequences justifies the multitude of studies carried out to understand their physics. However little has bee ...

Towards understanding edge localised mode mitigation by resonant magnetic perturbations in MAST

Wilfred Anthony Cooper

Type-I Edge Localised Modes (ELMs) have been mitigated in MAST through the application of n = 3; 4, and 6 resonant magnetic perturbations. For each toroidal mode number of the non-axisymmetric applied fields, the frequency of the ELMs has been increased si ...

Characterization of the Flow Generated in an Annular Test Facility

Peter Ott, Dominique Charbonnier, Elia Colombo, Cécile Deslot

Annular cascades are particularly useful to study the three dimensional phenomena encountered in turbomachines. The Non-Rotating Annular Test Facility of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) consists in a radial-axial inlet nozzle a ...

Two-Phase Pressure Drops in Adiabatic Horizontal Circular Smooth U-Bends and Contiguous Straight Pipes (RP-1444)

John Richard Thome, Ricardo Lima

Curved channels in the form of bends are encountered in many industrial two-phase flow applications, such as U-bends in air-conditioning and refrigeration evaporators and condensers. For engineering design purposes, the evaluation of the pressure loss in t ...

THE ENVIRONMENTS OF STARBURST AND POST-STARBURST GALAXIES AT z=0.4-0.8

Pascale Jablonka, Anja Von der Linden

Post-starburst (E+A or k+a) spectra, characterized by their exceptionally strong Balmer lines in absorption and the lack of emission lines, belong to galaxies in which the star formation (SF) activity ended abruptly sometime during the past Gyr. We perform ...

Vertical distribution of the different types of aerosols in the stratosphere: Detection of solid particles and analysis of their spatial variability

Quentin Bourgeois

Stratospheric aerosols play a significant role in stratospheric chemistry. In the past, it was assumed that only liquid droplets are present in the stratosphere. Nevertheless, a few lidar measurements have shown that sudden enhancement of aerosol content i ...

Inclusion of aerodynamic non-equilibrium effects in supersonic plasma jet enthalpy probe measurements

Christoph Hollenstein, Malko Gindrat

Low pressure plasma spraying (LPPS) is a thermal spraying technique that has found a niche for low oxidation products. It uses a low pressure environment (i.e:, chamber pressure between 2 and 90 kPa) and yields supersonic plasma jets. The enthalpy probe te ...
