Development of a new method to determine the axial void velocity profile in BWRs from measurements of the in-core neutron noise

Determination of the local void fraction in BWRs from in-core neutron noise measurements requires the knowledge of the axial velocity of the void. The purpose of this paper is to revisit the problem of determining the axial void velocity profile from the t ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: properties of newly discovered Li-rich giants

Carmela Lardo, Joao André Gomes de Sá e Sousa, Fadi Atef Bayoud

Aims. We report 20 new lithium-rich giants discovered within the Gaia-ESO Survey, including the first Li-rich giant with an evolutionary stage confirmed by CoRoT (Convection, Rotation and planetary Transits) data. We present a detailed overview of the prop ...

Luminosity scans for beam diagnostics

Tatiana Pieloni

A new type of fast luminosity separation scans ("emittance scans") was introduced at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2015. The scans were performed systematically in every fill with full-intensity beams in physics production conditions at the inter ...

Photometric redshifts and clustering of emission line galaxies selected jointly by DES and eBOSS

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Eduardo Sanchez, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac, Yi Zhang, Johan Comparat

We present the results of the first observations of the emission line galaxies (ELG) of the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. From the total 9000 targets, 4600 have been selected from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). In this subsample, the tot ...

Planck 2013 results. II. Low Frequency Instrument data processing

Julien Lesgourgues, Xin Chen, Fabio Finelli

We describe the data processing pipeline of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) data processing centre (DPC) to create and characterize full-sky maps based on the first 15.5 months of operations at 30, 44, and 70 GHz. In particular, we discuss the va ...

Planck 2013 results. IV. Low Frequency Instrument beams and window functions

Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

This paper presents the characterization of the in-flight beams, the beam window functions, and the associated uncertainties for the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI). Knowledge of the beam profiles is necessary for determining the transfer function to ...

Large micromirror array for generating programmable slit masks for Multi-Object Spectroscopy

Nico de Rooij, Michael David Canonica, Wilfried Noell

Multi-object spectroscopy (MOS) is a powerful tool for space and ground-based telescopes for the study of the formation and evolution of galaxies. This technique requires a programmable slit mask for astronomical object selection. We are engaged in a Europ ...

Improved parameters for the transiting planet HD 17156b: a high-density giant planet with a very eccentric orbit

Pierre North

We report high-precision transit photometry for the recently detected planet HD 17156b. Using these new data with previously published transit photometry and radial velocity measurements, we perform a combined analysis based on a Markov Chain Monte Carlo a ...
