The Gaia-ESO Survey: Galactic evolution of sulphur and zinc

Context. Due to their volatile nature, when sulphur and zinc are observed in external galaxies, their determined abundances represent the gas-phase abundances in the interstellar medium. This implies that they can be used as tracers of the chemical enrichm ...

Multivalley engineering in semiconductor microcavities

Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac, Timothy Chi Hin Liew

We consider exciton-photon coupling in semiconductor microcavities in which separate periodic potentials have been embedded for excitons and photons. We show theoretically that this system supports degenerate ground-states appearing at non-zero inplane mom ...

The formation of the Milky Way halo and its dwarf satellites; a NLTE-1D abundance analysis

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North

We present a homogeneous set of accurate atmospheric parameters for a complete sample of very and extremely metal-poor stars in the dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) Sculptor, Ursa Minor, Sextans, Fornax, Botes I, Ursa Major II, and Leo IV. We also deliver ...

The formation of the Milky Way halo and its dwarf satellites; a NLTE-1D abundance analysis II. Early chemical enrichment

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North

We present the non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) abundances of up to 10 chemical species in a sample of 59 very metal-poor (VMP, -4

Neutronics modeling of the CROCUS reactor with SERPENT and PARCS codes

Andreas Pautz, Mathieu Hursin, Daniel Jerôme Siefman, Adolfo Rais

This paper reports the methodology used for the neutronic modelling of the CROCUS reactor and discusses the challenges encountered during the process. Full-core steady-state neutronics solutions were computed with the PARCS code. The Serpent Monte Carlo co ...

Properties of helium bubbles in covalent systems at the nanoscale: A combined numerical and experimental study

Cécile Hébert, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander

The properties of nanometric-sized helium bubbles in silicon have been investigated using both spatially resolved electron-energy-loss spectroscopy combined with a recently developed method, and molecular-dynamics simulations. The experiments allowed for a ...

MULTIWAVELENGTH STUDY OF QUIESCENT STATES OF Mrk 421 WITH UNPRECEDENTED HARD X-RAY COVERAGE PROVIDED BY NuSTAR IN 2013

Xin Chen, Thomas Günther Bretz

We present coordinated multiwavelength observations of the bright, nearby BL Lacertae object Mrk 421 taken in 2013 January-March, involving GASP-WEBT, Swift, NuSTAR, Fermi-LAT, MAGIC, VERITAS, and other collaborations and instruments, providing data from r ...

An advection-diffusion model for cross-field runaway electron transport in perturbed magnetic fields

Joan Decker

Disruption-generated runaway electrons (RE) present an outstanding issue for ITER. The predictive computational studies of RE generation rely on orbit-averaged computations and, as such, they lack the effects from the magnetic field stochasticity. Since st ...

Limits to dark matter annihilation cross-section from a combined analysis of MAGIC and Fermi-LAT observations of dwarf satellite galaxies

Thomas Günther Bretz

We present the first joint analysis of gamma-ray data from the MAGIC Cherenkov telescopes and the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) to search for gamma-ray signals from dark matter annihilation in dwarf satellite galaxies. We combine 158 hours of Segue 1 ob ...
