The structure of magnetic turbulence in the heliosheath region observed by Voyager 2 at 106 AU

Kavli Affiliate: John Richardson | Summary:It is currently believed that the turbulent fluctuations pervade the outermost heliosphere. Turbulence, magnetic reconnection, and their link may be responsible for magnetic energy conversion in these regions. The governing mechanisms of such anisotropic and compressible magnetic turbulence in the inner heliosheath (IHS) and in the local interstellar medium (LISM) […]

Magnetic turbulence spectra and intermittency in the heliosheath and in the local interstellar medium

Kavli Affiliate: John Richardson | Summary:The understanding of inertial-scale dynamics in the heliosheath is not yet thorough. Magnetic field fluctuations across the inner heliosheath (IHS) and the local interstellar medium (LISM) are here considered to provide accurate and highly resolved statistics over different plasma conditions between 88 and 136 au. By using the unique in […]

Transfer conditions and transmission bias in capillaries of vacuum interfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Stephan Rauschenbach | Summary:A detailed study of the transfer of ions in transfer capillaries of electrospray ion sources is presented. The laminar flow field for various capillary sizes and wall temperatures is calculated. It forms the base of ion transfer simulation of a large number of ions with space charge. This allows to […]

Securing the legacy of TESS through the care and maintenance of TESS planet ephemerides

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Morgan | Summary:Much of the science from the exoplanets detected by the TESS mission relies on precisely predicted transit times that are needed for many follow-up characterization studies. We investigate ephemeris deterioration for simulated TESS planets and find that the ephemerides of 81% of those will have expired (i.e. 1$σ$ mid-transit time […]

NuRadioMC: Simulating the radio emission of neutrinos from interaction to detector

Kavli Affiliate: Abigail Vieregg | Summary:NuRadioMC is a Monte Carlo framework designed to simulate ultra-high energy neutrino detectors that rely on the radio detection method. This method exploits the radio emission generated in the electromagnetic component of a particle shower following a neutrino interaction. NuRadioMC simulates everything from the neutrino interaction in a medium, the […]

On-chip integrated laser-driven particle accelerator

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Byer | Summary:Particle accelerators represent an indispensable tool in science and industry. However, the size and cost of conventional radio-frequency accelerators limit the utility and reach of this technology. Dielectric laser accelerators (DLAs) provide a compact and cost-effective solution to this problem by driving accelerator nanostructures with visible or near-infrared (NIR) pulsed […]
