Stochastic Model for Tumor Control Probability: Effects of Cell Cycle and (A)symmetric Proliferation

Andrew Dhawan, Kamran Kaveh, Mohammad Kohandel +1

Estimating the required dose in radiotherapy is of crucial importance since the administrated dose should be sufficient to eradicate the tumor and at the same time should inflict m…

Modes and Mode Volumes of Leaky Optical Cavities and Plasmonic Nanoresonators

Philip Trøst Kristensen, Stephen Hughes

Electromagnetic cavity modes in photonic and plasmonic resonators offer rich and attractive regimes for tailoring the properties of light-matter interactions. Yet there is a distur…

Elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds over a del Pezzo surface

Simon Rose, Noriko Yui

We consider certain elliptic threefolds over the projective plane (more generally over certain rational surfaces) with a section in Weierstrass normal form. In particular, over a d…

Mathematical models for geometric control theory

Saber Jafarpour, Andrew D. Lewis

Just as an explicit parameterisation of system dynamics by state, i.e., a choice of coordinates, can impede the identification of general structure, so it is too with an explicit p…

On Rates of Convergence for Markov Chains under Random Time State Dependent Drift Criteria

Ramiro Zurkowski, Serdar Yüksel, Tamás Linder

Many applications in networked control require intermittent access of a controller to a system, as in event-triggered systems or information constrained control applications. Motiv…

Quasinormal mode approach to modelling light-emission and propagation in nanoplasmonics

Rong-Chun Ge, Philip Trost Kristensen, Jeff. F. Young +1

We describe a powerful and intuitive technique for modeling light-matter interactions in classical and quantum nanoplasmonics. Our approach uses a quasinormal mode expansion of the…

Mean-field yrast spectrum and persistent currents in a two-component Bose gas with interaction asymmetry

Z. Wu, E. Zaremba, J. Smyrnakis +3

We analyze the mean-field yrast spectrum of a two-component Bose gas in the ring geometry with arbitrary interaction asymmetry. Of particular interest is the possibility that the y…

The large-scale structure of the halo of the Andromeda Galaxy Part I: global stellar density, morphology and metallicity properties

Rodrigo A. Ibata, Geraint F. Lewis, Alan W. McConnachie +14

We present an analysis of the large-scale structure of the halo of the Andromeda galaxy, based on the Pan-Andromeda Archeological Survey (PAndAS), currently the most complete map o…

An Observational Evaluation of Magnetic Confinement in the Winds of BA Supergiants

M. Shultz, G. A. Wade, V. Petit +4

Magnetic wind confinement has been proposed as one explanation for the complex wind structures of supergiant stars of spectral types B and A. Observational investigation of this hy…

Dynamics of harmonically confined systems: some rigorous results

Z. Wu, E. Zaremba

In this paper we consider the dynamics of harmonically-confined atomic gases. We present various general results which are independent of particle statistics, interatomic interacti…

Stokes IQUV mapping of CVn & other Ap stars using ESPaDOnS and NARVAL

J. Silvester, O. Kochukhov, G. A. Wade

New spectral line polarisation observations of 7 bright Ap stars have been obtained with the ESPaDOnS and Narval high resolution spectropolarimeters (Silvester et al. 2012). The ai…

A New Approach to Detailed Structural Decomposition: Kicked-up Disk Stars in Andromeda's Halo?

Claire E. Dorman, Lawrence M. Widrow, Puragra Guhathakurta +1

We characterize the bulge, disk, and halo subcomponents in the Andromeda galaxy (M31) over the radial range 0.4 < R < 225 kpc. The cospatial nature of these subcomponents renders t…
