Kavli Affiliate: Oskar J. Painter | First 5 Authors: Stefan A. Maier, Paul E. Barclay, Thomas J. Johnson, Michelle D. Friedman, Oskar J. Painter | Summary: A metal nanoparticle plasmon waveguide for electromagnetic energy transport utilizing dispersion engineering to dramatically increase lateral energy confinement via a two-dimensional pattern of Au dots on an optically thin […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Cameron | First 5 Authors: John D. Silverman, Paul J. Green, Thomas L. Aldcroft, Dong-Woo Kim, Wayne Barkhouse | Summary: We present an X-ray and optical analysis of a 2-8 keV flux limited (fx > 10e-14 erg s^-1 cm^-2) sample of 126 AGN detected in 16 Chandra fields. This work represents […]
Kavli Affiliate: Toshitake Kohno | First 5 Authors: Frederick R. Cohen, Toshitake Kohno, Miguel A. Xicotencatl, , | Summary: The purpose of this article is to analyze several Lie algebras associated to "orbit configuration spaces" obtained from a group G acting freely, and properly discontinuously on the upper 1/2-plane H^2. The Lie algebra obtained from […]
Kavli Affiliate: David H. Shoemaker | First 5 Authors: Ewald Mueller, Markus Rampp, Robert Buras, H. -Thomas Janka, David H. Shoemaker | Summary: We have computed the gravitational wave signal from supernova core collapse using the presently most realistic input physics available. We start from state-of-the-art progenitor models of rotating and non-rotating massive stars, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sarah Church | First 5 Authors: Lloyd Knox, Gil Holder, Sarah Church, , | Summary: Observations of clusters in the 30 to 350 GHz range can in principle be used to determine a galaxy cluster’s Comptonization parameter, y, peculiar velocity, v and gas temperature, T_e via the dependence of the kinetic and thermal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Catherine E. Grant | First 5 Authors: Herman L. Marshall, Allyn Tennant, Catherine E. Grant, Adam P. Hitchcock, Steve O’Dell | Summary: The Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on the Chandra X-ray Observatory is suffering a gradual loss of low energy sensitivity due to a buildup of a contaminant. High resolution spectra of […]
Kavli Affiliate: P. C. Joss | First 5 Authors: J. Madej, M. Pietrachowicz, P. C. Joss, A. Majczyna, A. Rozanska | Summary: We explore photometric properties of hypothetical iron core white dwarfs and compute their expected colors in UBVRI Johnson broadband system. Atmospheres of iron core WDs in this paper consist of pure iron covered […]
Kavli Affiliate: David H. Shoemaker | First 5 Authors: Michael J. Mortonson, Christophoros C. Vassiliou, David J. Ottaway, David H. Shoemaker, Gregory M. Harry | Summary: We report on the effects of an electrical charge on mechanical loss of a fused silica disk. A degradation of Q was seen that correlated with charge on the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew P. Rasmussen | First 5 Authors: Ehud Behar, Andrew P. Rasmussen, Alexander J. Blustin, Masao Sako, Steven M. Kahn | Summary: A long 280 ks observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 with XMM-Newton is reported. We focus on the oxygen line complex between 17 and 24 A as measured with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Todor E. Milanov | First 5 Authors: Alexander B. Givental, Todor E. Milanov, , , | Summary: The paper math.AG/0108100 gives a construction of the total descendent potential corresponding to a semisimple Frobenius manifold. In math.AG/0209205, it is proved that the total descendent potential corresponding to K. Saito’s Frobenius structure on the parameter […]
