On the vanishing orbital X-ray variability of the eclipsing binary millisecond pulsar 47 Tuc W

Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Pavan R. Hebbar, Craig O. Heinke, D. Kandel, Roger W. Romani, | Summary: Redback millisecond pulsars (MSPs) typically show pronounced orbital variability in their X-ray emission due to our changing view of the intrabinary shock (IBS) between the pulsar wind and stellar wind from the companion. […]

X-ray constraints on the spectral energy distribution of the $z=5.18$ blazar SDSS J013127.34-032100.1

Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Hongjun An, Roger W. Romani, , , | Summary: We report on X-ray measurements constraining the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the high-redshift $z=5.18$ blazar SDSS J013127.34$-$032100.1 with new XMM-Newton and NuSTAR exposures. The blazar’s X-ray spectrum is well fit by a power law with $Gamma=1.9$ […]

Low Energy Spread Attosecond Bunching and Coherent Electron Acceleration in Dielectric Nanostructures

Kavli Affiliate: Robert L. Byer | First 5 Authors: Uwe Niedermayer, Dylan S. Black, Kenneth J. Leedle, Yu Miao, Robert L. Byer | Summary: We demonstrate a compact technique to compress electron pulses to attosecond length, while keeping the energy spread reasonably small. The technique is based on Dielectric Laser Acceleration (DLA) in nanophotonic silicon […]
