A Microlensing Accretion Disk Size Measurement in the Lensed Quasar WFI 2026-4536
Frédéric Courbin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Vivien François Bonvin
We use 13 seasons of R-band photometry from the 1.2 m Leonard Euler Swiss Telescope at La Silla to examine microlensing variability in the quadruply imaged lensed quasar WFI 2026-4536. The lightcurves exhibit similar to 0.2 mag of uncorrelated variability ...
IOP PUBLISHING LTD2020The Pristine Survey - VIII. The metallicity distribution function of the Milky Way halo down to the extremely metal-poor regime
Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo
The Pristine survey uses narrow-band photometry to derive precise metallicities down to the extremely metal-poor regime ([Fe/H]
OXFORD UNIV PRESS2020The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Initial CIV Lag Results from Four Years of Data
Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Yuguang Chen, Yue Shen, Feng Li
We present reverberation-mapping (RM) lags and black hole mass measurements using the C IV lambda 1549 broad emission line from a sample of 348 quasars monitored as a part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey RM Project. Our data span four years of spectroscopi ...
IOP PUBLISHING LTD2019Elastic strain engineering for ultralow mechanical dissipation
Tobias Kippenberg, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Nils Johan Engelsen, Sergey Fedorov, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Amir Hossein Ghadimi
Extreme stresses can be produced in nanoscale structures, a feature which has been used to realize enhanced materials properties, such as the high mobility of silicon in modern transistors. Here we show how nanoscale stress can be used to realize exception ...

2018Potential Recoiling Supermassive Black Hole, CXO J101527.2+625911
We have carried out a systematic search for recoiling supermassive black holes (rSMBH) using the Chandra Source and SDSS Cross-Match Catalog. From the survey, we have detected a potential rSMBH, CXO J101527.2 +625911, at z = 0.3504. The source CXO J101527. ...
Iop Publishing Ltd2017On the physics of multimode polaritons
This thesis is devoted to the study of microcavity polariton systems, in which the strong coupling occurs between more than one exciton or photon modes i.e. multimode polaritons. The first part of this work states the theoretical background of light-matter ...
EPFL2017Detecting unresolved binary stars in Euclid VIS images
Frédéric Courbin, Thibault Adrien Kuntzer
Measuring a weak gravitational lensing signal to the level required by the next generation of space-based surveys demands exquisite reconstruction of the point-spread function (PSF). However, unresolved binary stars can significantly distort the PSF shape. ...
Edp Sciences S A2017PHOTOELECTRIC NEURAL INTERFACE COMBINING WIRE-BONDING mu LEDS WITH IRIDIUM OXIDE MICROELECTRODES FOR OPTOGENETICS
This paper reports the design, fabrication, electrical and thermal characterization, as well as attachment and stability of a flexible photoelectric neural interface (PENI). Upon the wire-bonding technology, three micro LED (mu LED) chips are well-connecte ...
