Towards a liquid Argon TPC without evacuation: filling of a 6 m^3 vessel with argon gas from air to ppm impurities concentration through flushing
A. Curioni, L. Epprecht, A. Gendotti +11
In this paper we present a successful experimental test of filling a volume of 6 m with argon gas, starting from normal ambient air and reducing the impurities content down to…
Precise physical parameters of three late-type eclipsing binary giant stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
G. Rojas GarcÃa, D. Graczyk, G. PietrzyÅski +17
Detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs) allow for the possibility of precise characterization of its stellar components. They offer a unique opportunity to derive their physical paramet…
Evolved eclipsing binary systems in the Galactic bulge: Precise physical and orbital parameters of OGLE-BLG-ECL-305487 and OGLE-BLG-ECL-116218
K. Suchomska, D. Graczyk, C. GaÅan +17
Our goal is to determine, with high accuracy, the physical and orbital parameters of two double-lined eclipsing binary systems, where the components are two giant stars. We also ai…
BIGHORNS - Broadband Instrument for Global HydrOgen ReioNisation Signal
M. Sokolowski, S. E. Tremblay, R. B. Wayth +12
The redshifted 21cm line of neutral hydrogen (HI), potentially observable at low radio frequencies (~50-200 MHz), should be a powerful probe of the physical conditions of the inter…
Discovery of ionized circumstellar gas emission around the long-period Cepheid Carinae with ALMA
V. Hocdé, T. KamiÅski, M. Lewis +3
Cepheid circumstellar emissions have previously been detected via both infrared excess and infrared interferometric observations at a few stellar radii. Those studies have shown th…
The Araucaria Project: Improving the cosmic distance scale
The Araucaria Project, :, G. PietrzyÅski +21
The book consists of a number of short articles that present achievements of the Araucaria members, collaborators, and friends, in various aspects of distance determinations and re…
