Secular effects of ultralight dark matter on binary pulsars

Dark matter (DM) can consist of very light bosons behaving as a classical scalar field that experiences coherent oscillations. The presence of this DM field would perturb the dynamics of celestial bodies, either because the (oscillating) DM stress tensor m ...

Spectroscopic Orbits Of Three Dwarf Barium Stars

Pierre North

Barium stars are thought to result from binary evolution in systems wide enough to allow the more massive component to reach the asymptotic giant branch and eventually become a CO white dwarf. While Ba stars were initially known only among giant or subgian ...

Barium and related stars, and their white-dwarf companions

Pierre North, Conrad Johnston, Shreeya Sushil Shetye

Barium (Ba) dwarfs and CH subgiants are the less evolved analogues of Ba and CH giants. They are F- to G-type main-sequence stars polluted with heavy elements by their binary companions when the companion was on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB). This comp ...

Koopmans-Compliant Functionals and Potentials and Their Application to the GW100 Test Set

Nicola Marzari, Nicola Colonna, Ngoc Linh Nguyen, Andrea Ferretti

Koopmans-compliant (KC) functionals have been shown to provide accurate spectral properties through a generalized condition of piecewise linearity of the total energy as a function of the fractional addition/removal of an electron to/from any orbital. We a ...

Critical inclination for absolute/convective instability transition in inverted falling films

Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman

Liquid films flowing down the underside of inclined plates are subject to the interaction between the hydrodynamic and the Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instabilities causing a patterned and wavy topology at the free surface. The R-T instability results from the d ...

Jahn-Teller versus quantum effects in the spin-orbital material LuVO3

Paul Gregory Freeman, Sándor Tóth, Mechthild Enderle

We report on combined neutron and resonant x-ray scattering results, identifying the nature of the spin-orbital ground state and magnetic excitations in LuVO3 as driven by the orbital parameter. In particular, we distinguish between models based on orbital ...

Properties and nature of Be stars 30. Reliable physical properties of a semi-detached B9.5e+G8III binary BR CMi = HD 61273 compared to those of other well studied semi-detached emission-line binaries

Pierre North, Matthias Wolf

Reliable determination of the basic physical properties of hot emission-line binaries with Roche-lobe filling secondaries is important for developing the theory of mass exchange in binaries. It is a very hard task, however, which is complicated by the pres ...

The upgraded Collective Thomson Scattering diagnostics of FTU

Cristian Galperti, Gabriele Grosso

The 140 GHz Collective Thomson Scattering (CTS) diagnostics installed on the Frascati Tokamak Upgrade (FTU) has been upgraded. The new system now is ready both to detect the thermal CTS radiation (for the first time with the probe frequency below the 1st h ...

Solid-state carbon-13 NMR and computational characterization of the N719 ruthenium sensitizer adsorbed on TiO2 nanoparticles

Michael Graetzel, Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Diego Carnevale, Nicola Salvi, Julien Edouard Frey

The ruthenium-containing sensitizing dye N719 grafted on TiO2 nanoparticles was investigated by solidstate NMR. The carbon resonances are assigned by means of 13C cross-polarized dipolar dephasing experiments. DFT calculations of the carbon magnetic shield ...

Apparatus and method for quantitative phase tomography through linear scanning with coherent and non-coherent detection

Christian Depeursinge, Nicolas Pavillon

The disclosed invention describes a new apparatus performing a new data acquisition for quantitative refractive index tomography. It is based on a linear scanning of the specimen, opposed to the classical approaches based on rotations of either the sample ...
