We present Submillimeter Array [ C II] 158 mu m and Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (CO)-C-12(1-0) line emission maps for the bright, lensed, submillimeter source at z = 5.2430 behind A 773: HLSJ091828.6+514223 (HLS0918). We combine these measurements with ...
The interaction between 3, 4, 9, 10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) and rare gas or para-hydrogen samples is studied by means of laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectroscopy. The comparison between spectra of PTCDA embedded in a neon matr ...
Extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars are old objects formed in the first Gyr of the Universe. They are rare and, to select them the most successful strategy has been to build on large and low-resolution spectroscopic surveys. The combination of narrow- and bro ...
One of the possible sources of hadronic cosmic rays (CRs) are newborn pulsars. If this is indeed the case, they should feature diffusive gamma-ray halos produced by interactions of CRs with interstellar gas. In this paper we try to identify extended gamma- ...
Stray light contamination reduces considerably the precision of photometric of faint stars for low altitude space-borne observatories. When measuring faint objects, the necessity of coping with stray light contamination arises in order to avoid systematic ...
The optical properties of small size selected metal clusters have been studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. Cun (n = 1-5, 8), Agn (n = 1-5, 8, 9, 20), Aun (n = 1-5, 8) and Nin (n = 1-3) clusters embedded in condensed neon are photoionized by VUV photons i ...
We perform a comprehensive estimate of the frequency of galaxy mergers and their impact on star formation over z similar to 0.24-0.80 (lookback time T-b similar to 3-7 Gyr) using similar to 3600 (M >= 1 x 10(9) M-circle dot) galaxies with GEMS Hubble Space ...
Low energy collisions of atomic ions and cluster ions with rare gas covered metal substrates can lead to strong light emission which is element and size specific. Instead of a direct energy transfer into the electronic system of the cluster the observed em ...
Experimental uncertainties concerning the coordination mode of trivalent plutonium in concentrated LiCl have led us to theoretically evaluate the f-f transitions of a series of rare earth aquo and chloro complexes. The calculation of Pr(III), U(III), Np(II ...
