On the mechanism of polaritonic rate suppression from quantum transition paths

Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Michelle C. Anderson, Esmae J. Woods, Thomas P. Fay, David J. Wales, David T. Limmer | Summary: Polariton chemistry holds promise for facilitating mode-selective chemical reactions, but the underlying mechanism behind the rate modifications observed under vibrational strong coupling is not well understood. Using the recently […]

The effect of scatter of polymer chain length on strength

Kavli Affiliate: Zhigang Suo | First 5 Authors: Manyuan Tao, Shawn Lavoie, Zhigang Suo, Maria K. Cameron, | Summary: A polymer network fractures by breaking covalent bonds, but the experimentally measured strength of the polymer network is orders of magnitude lower than the strength of covalent bonds. We investigate the effect of statistical variation of […]

X-ray Polarization of the Black Hole X-ray Binary 4U 1630-47 Challenges Standard Thin Accretion Disk Scenario

Kavli Affiliate: Herman Marshall | First 5 Authors: Ajay Ratheesh, Michal Dovčiak, Henric Krawczynski, Jakub Podgorný, Lorenzo Marra | Summary: Large energy-dependent X-ray polarization degree is detected by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer ({IXPE}) in the high-soft emission state of the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630–47. The highly significant detection (at $approx50sigma$ confidence level) […]

The high polarisation of the X-rays from the Black Hole X-ray Binary 4U 1630-47 challenges standard thin accretion disc scenario

Kavli Affiliate: Herman Marshall | First 5 Authors: Ajay Ratheesh, Michal Dovčiak, Henric Krawczynski, Jakub Podgorný, Lorenzo Marra | Summary: Large, energy-dependent X-ray polarisation is observed in 4U 1630-47, a black hole in an X-ray binary, in the high-soft emission state. In this state, X-ray emission is believed to be dominated by a thermal, geometrically […]
