Magic Numbers for Packing Adamantane in Helium Droplets: Cluster Cations, Dications and Trications
M. Goulart, M. Kuhn, L. Kranabetter +7
We report the first observation of cations, dications and trications of large clusters of adamantane. Cluster formation was initiated near 0 K in helium droplets and ionization was…
gamma Doradus pulsation in two pre-main sequence stars discovered by CoRoT
K. Zwintz, L. Fossati, T. Ryabchikova +5
Pulsations in pre-main sequence stars have been discovered several times within the last years. But nearly all of these pulsators are of delta Scuti-type. gamma Doradus-type pulsat…
The excitation of solar-like oscillations in a delta Scuti star by efficient envelope convection
V. Antoci, G. Handler, T. L. Campante +21
Delta Scuti (delta Sct) stars are opacity-driven pulsators with masses of 1.5-2.5M, their pulsations resulting from the varying ionization of helium. In less massive star…
Logarithmic electroweak corrections to gauge-boson pair production at the LHC
E. Accomando, A. Denner, A. Kaiser
We have studied the effects of the complete logarithmic electroweak O(alpha) corrections on the production of vector-boson pairs WZ, ZZ, and WW at the LHC. These corrections are im…
Hybrid gamma Doradus - delta Scuti pulsators: New insights into the physics of the oscillations from Kepler observations
A. Grigahcene, V. Antoci, L. Balona +39
Observations of the pulsations of stars can be used to infer their interior structure and test theoretical models. The main sequence Doradus (Dor) and Scuti (Sct) stars w…
How to capture active particles
A. Kaiser, H. H. Wensink, H. Löwen
For many applications, it is important to catch collections of autonomously navigating microbes and man-made microswimmers in a controlled way. Here we propose an efficient trap to…
Magnetic activity in the photosphere of CoRoT-Exo-2a. Active longitudes and short-term spot cycle in a young Sun-like star
A. F. Lanza, I. Pagano, G. Leto +18
The space experiment CoRoT has recently detected transits by a hot Jupiter across the disc of an active G7V star (CoRoT-Exo-2a) that can be considered as a good proxy for the Sun a…
Gamma Dor and Gamma Dor - Delta Sct Hybrid Stars In The CoRoT LRa01
M. Hareter, P. Reegen, A. Miglio +7
A systematic search for gamma Dor and gamma Dor - delta Scuti hybrid pulsators was conducted on the CoRoT LRa01 Exo-archive yielding a total of 418 gamma Dor and 274 hybrid candida…
Cold Physics and Chemistry: Collisions, Ionization and Reactions inside Helium Nanodroplets Close to Zero K
A. Mauracher, O. Echt, A. M. Ellis +6
This review has two principal aims. The first of these is to provide a comprehensive overview of the applications of HNDs in the study of collections of atoms and molecules, i.e. c…
Capturing self-propelled particles in a moving microwedge
A. Kaiser, K. Popowa, H. H. Wensink +1
Catching fish with a fishing net is typically done either by dragging a fishing net through quiescent water or by placing a stationary basket trap into a stream. We transfer these…
Electroweak corrections and anomalous triple gauge-boson couplings in WW and WZ production at the LHC
E. Accomando, A. Kaiser
We have analysed the production of WW and WZ vector-boson pairs at the LHC. These processes give rise to four-fermion final states, and are particularly sensitive to possible non-s…
