HAWC Performance Enhanced by Machine Learning in Gamma-Hadron Separation
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, A. Andrés +92
Improving gamma-hadron separation is one of the most effective ways to enhance the performance of ground-based gamma-ray observatories. With over a decade of continuous operation,…
Morphology of star-forming clumps in ram-pressure stripped galaxies as seen by HST
Giunchi, E, Poggianti +18
We characterize the morphological properties of a statistically relevant sample of H and UV young star-forming clumps and optical complexes, observed with the \textit{Hubble Sp…
Thin current sheet behind the dipolarization front

We report a unique conjugate observation of fast flows and associated current sheet disturbances in the near-Earth magnetotail by MMS (Magnetospheric Multiscale) and Cluster preced…
Galactic cold cores V. Dust opacity
M. Juvela, I. Ristorcelli, D. J. Marshall +14
The project Galactic Cold Cores has made Herschel observations of interstellar clouds where the Planck satellite survey has located cold and compact clumps. The sources range from…
Rieger-type periodicity in the total irradiance of the Sun as a star during solar cycles 23-24
Gurgenashvili, E., Zaqarashvili +11
Context. Total solar irradiance allows for the use of the Sun as a star for studying observations of stellar light curves from recent space missions. Aims. We aim to study how the…
Optical spectroscopic observations of gamma-ray blazar candidates VIII: the 2016-2017 follow up campaign carried out at SPM, NOT, KPNO and SOAR telescopes
Marchesini, E. J., Peña-Herazo +24
The third Fermi source catalog lists 3033 gamma-ray sources above significance. More than 30% are classified as either unidentified/unassociated Gamma-ray sources (UGSs), wit…
Half-lives of neutron-rich Cd
Dunlop, R., Bildstein +69
The -decay half-lives of Cd have been measured with the newly commissioned GRIFFIN -ray spectrometer at the TRIUMF-ISAC facility. The time structures of…
X-ray study of high-and-low luminosity modes and peculiar low-soft-and-hard activity in the transitional pulsar XSS J12270-4859
Miraval Zanon, A., Campana +5
XSS J12270-4859 (henceforth J12270) is the first low-mass X-ray binary to exhibit a transition, taking place at the end of 2012, from an X-ray active state to a radio pulsar state.…
