INTEGRAL observation of the high-mass X-ray transient V0332+53 during the 2005 outburst decline

N. Mowlavi, I. Kreykenbohm, S. E. Shaw +7

The decline of the high mass X-ray transient V0332+53 during the Dec. 2004 to Feb. 2005 outburst is analysed from the data recorded by INTEGRAL. The flux is shown to decrease expon…

Asymptotic perfect fluid dynamics as a consequence of AdS/CFT

Romuald A. Janik, Robi Peschanski

We study the dynamics of strongly interacting gauge-theory matter (modelling quark-gluon plasma) in a boost-invariant setting using the AdS/CFT correspondence. Using Fefferman-Grah…

Theory of Spin Torque in a nanomagnet

O. Parcollet, X. Waintal

We present a complete theory of the spin torque phenomena in a ultrasmall nanomagnet coupled to non-collinear ferromagnetic electrodes through tunnelling junctions. This model syst…

Direct experimental evidence of a growing length scale accompanying the glass transition

Ludovic Berthier, Giulio Biroli, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud +5

Understanding glass formation is a challenge because the existence of a true glass state, distinct from liquid and solid, remains elusive: Glasses are liquids that have become too…

Tachyon condensation and D-branes in generalized geometries

Pascal Grange, Ruben Minasian

In generalized complex geometry, D-branes can be seen as maximally isotropic spaces and are thus in one-to-one correspondence with pure spinors. When considered on the sum of the t…

The Galactic black hole transient H1743-322 during outburst decay: connections between timing noise, state transitions and radio emission

E. Kalemci, J. A. Tomsick, R. E. Rothschild +3

Multi-wavelength observations of Galactic black hole transients during outburst decay are instrumental for our understanding of the accretion geometry and the formation of outflows…

Do measurements of the one-point distribution of aperture-mass improve constraints on cosmology ?

Dipak Munshi, Patrick Valageas

We study the possibility of using the entire probability distribution function (PDF) of the aperture mass Map and its related cumulative probability distribution function (CPDF) to…

Search for rare quark-annihilation decays, B --> Ds(*) Phi

The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert

We report on searches for B- --> Ds- Phi and B- --> Ds*- Phi. In the context of the Standard Model, these decays are expected to be highly suppressed since they proceed through ann…

26Al in the inner Galaxy

R. Diehl, H. Halloin, K. Kretschmer +12

We performed a spectroscopic study of the 1809 keV gamma-ray line from 26Al decay in the Galaxy using the SPI imaging spectrometer with its high-resolution Ge detector camera on th…

Two-component model for the deuteron electromagnetic structure

E. Tomasi-Gustafsson, G. I. Gakh, C. Adamuscin

We suggest a simple phenomenological parametrization for all three deuteron electromagnetic form factors, and show that a good fit on the available data, with a minimal number of p…

Towards a fully automated computation of RG-functions for the 3- O(N) vector model: Parametrizing amplitudes

Riccardo Guida, Paolo Ribeca

Within the framework of field-theoretical description of second-order phase transitions via the 3-dimensional O(N) vector model, accurate predictions for critical exponents can be…

Evolution of the X-Ray Jets from 4U 1755--33

P. Kaaret, S. Corbel, J. A. Tomsick +4

We report on new X-ray observations of the large-scale jets recently discovered in X-rays from the black hole candidate 4U 1755-33. Our observations in 2004 show that the jets foun…

On the Rigidity of Amorphous Solids

Matthieu Wyart

We poorly understand the properties of amorphous systems at small length scales, where a continuous elastic description breaks down. This is apparent when one considers their vibra…
