Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Cameron | First 5 Authors: Robert A. Cameron, , , , | Summary: We present the prospects for a future joint gamma-ray and radio survey of southern hemisphere sources using the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and the upcoming Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope. ASKAP is a next […]
Kavli Affiliate: Laurens Kuipers | First 5 Authors: Matteo Burresi, Tobias Kampfrath, Dries van Oosten, Jord C. Prangsma, Bong-Shik Song | Summary: The ability to actively tune the properties of a nanocavity is crucial for future applications in photonics and quantum information. Two important man-made classes of materials have emerged to mold the flow of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tom Chang | First 5 Authors: Sunny W. Y. Tam, Tom Chang, Paul M. Kintner, Eric M. Klatt, | Summary: Rank-Ordered Multifractal Analysis (ROMA), a recently developed technique that combines the ideas of parametric rank ordering and one parameter scaling of monofractals, has the capabilities of deciphering the multifractal characteristics of intermittent fluctuations. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Catherine Grant | First 5 Authors: Eric D. Miller, Marshall Bautz, Catherine Grant, Ryan Hickox, Mark Brodwin | Summary: Galaxy groups are key tracers of galaxy evolution, cluster evolution, and structure formation, yet they are difficult to study at even moderate redshift. We have undertaken a project to observe a flux-limited sample of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jos W. Zwanikken | First 5 Authors: Chantal Valeriani, Philip J. Camp, Jos W. Zwanikken, René van Roij, Marjolein Dijkstra | Summary: The problem of successfully simulating ionic fluids at low temperature and low density states is well known in the simulation literature: using conventional methods, the system is not able to equilibrate […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alan Levine | First 5 Authors: Martin Durant, Remon Cornelisse, Ron Remillard, Alan Levine, | Summary: Regular observations by the All Sky Monitor aboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer satellite have yielded well-sampled light-curves with a time baseline of over ten years. We find that up to eight of the sixteen brightest persistent […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ralf Heilmann | First 5 Authors: Herman L. Marshall, Ralf Heilmann, Norbert Schulz, Kendrah Murphy, | Summary: We developed an instrument design capable of measuring linear X-ray polarization over a broad-band using conventional spectroscopic optics. A set of multilayer-coated flats reflects the dispersed X-rays to the instrument detectors. The intensity variation with position […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tomiyoshi Haruyama | First 5 Authors: The J-Parc Ucn Taskforce, :, Tomokazu Aso, Masatoshi Futakawa, Tomiyoshi Haruyama | Summary: Discussions in the taskforce meetings in the period of Jan.-Mar. 2009 on the technical possibility of the ultracold neutron (UCN) source at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) is summarized. | Search Query: […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jos Zwanikken | First 5 Authors: Jos Zwanikken, René van Roij, , , | Summary: Within a modified Poisson-Boltzmann theory we study the effect of Bjerrum pairs on the typical length scale $1/bar{kappa}$ over which electric fields are screened in electrolyte solutions, taking into account a simple association-dissociation equilibrium between free ions and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Karen L. Byrum | First 5 Authors: Robert G. Wagner, Karen L. Byrum, Mayly Sanchez, Alexandre V. Vaniachine, Oswald Siegmund | Summary: We advocate support of research aimed at developing alternatives to the photomultiplier tube for photon detection in large astroparticle experiments such as gamma-ray and neutrino astronomy, and direct dark matter detectors.
