Optical implementation of continuous-variable quantum cloning machines
Jaromir Fiurasek
We propose an optical implementation of the Gaussian continuous-variable quantum cloning machines. We construct a symmetric N -> M cloner which optimally clones coherent states and…
tau Boo b: Not so bright, but just as heavy
Andrew Collier Cameron, Keith Horne, David James +2
We present new results derived from high-resolution optical spectra of the tau Boo system, secured in March-May 2000. The results do not show the same feature reported by Cameron e…
The Evolution of Ellipticals, Spirals and Irregulars: Overcoming Selection Bias
Simon Driver
The Hubble Deep Fields represent our best opportunity for probing galaxy evolution over a substantive look-back time. However as with any dataset the HDFs are prone to selection bi…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Near Infrared Galaxy Luminosity Functions
Shaun Cole, Peder Norberg, Carlton Baugh +24
We combine the 2MASS extended source catalogue and the 2dFGRS to produce an IR selected galaxy catalogue with 17,173 measured redshifts. We use this extensive dataset to estimate t…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The Number and Luminosity Density of Galaxies
Nicholas Cross, Simon P. Driver, Warrick Couch +29
We present the bivariate brightness distribution (BBD) for the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) based on a preliminary subsample of 45,000 galaxies. The BBD is an extension of t…
Planetary dynamics in stellar clusters
Ian A. Bonnell, Kester W. Smith, Melvyn B. Davies +1
We investigate how the formation and evolution of extrasolar planetary systems can be affected by stellar encounters that occur in the crowded conditions of a stellar cluster. Usin…
