The Scenario Culture

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Ralph | First 5 Authors: Edward Wheatcroft, Henry Wynn, Chris J. Dent, Jim Q. Smith, Claire L. Copeland | Summary: Scenario Analysis is a risk assessment tool that aims to evaluate the impact of a small number of distinct plausible future scenarios. In this paper, we provide an overview of important aspects […]

Resolving the FU Ori System with ALMA: Interacting Twin Disks?

Kavli Affiliate: David Principe | First 5 Authors: Sebastián Pérez, Antonio Hales, Hauyu Baobab Liu, Zhaohuan Zhu, Simon Casassus | Summary: FU Orionis objects are low-mass pre-main sequence stars characterized by dramatic outbursts of several magnitudes in brightness. These outbursts are linked to episodic accretion events in which stars gain a significant portion of their […]

Effect of Rough Walls on Transport in Mesoscopic $^3$He Films

Kavli Affiliate: Jeevak M. Parpia | First 5 Authors: Priya Sharma, Antonio Corcoles, R. G. Bennett, Jeevak M. Parpia, Brian Cowan | Summary: The interplay of bulk and boundary scattering is explored in a regime where quantum size effects modify mesoscopic transport in a degenerate Fermi liquid film of $^3$He on a rough surface. We […]
