The Role of Discs in the Collapse and Fragmentation of Prestellar Cores

O. Lomax, A. P. Whitworth, D. A. Hubber

Disc fragmentation provides an important mechanism for producing low mass stars in prestellar cores. Here, we describe Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics simulations which show how po…

On the depletion and accretion timescales of cold gas in local early-type galaxies

Timothy A. Davis, Martin Bureau

We consider what can be learnt about the processes of gas accretion and depletion from the kinematic misalignment between the cold/warm gas and stars in local early-type galaxies.…

Solving stable matching problems using answer set programming

Sofie De Clercq, Steven Schockaert, Martine De Cock +1

Since the introduction of the stable marriage problem (SMP) by Gale and Shapley (1962), several variants and extensions have been investigated. While this variety is useful to wide…

The first Galaxy scale hunt for the youngest high-mass protostars

T. Csengeri, S. Bontemps, F. Wyrowski +17

The origin of massive stars is a fundamental open issue in modern astrophysics. Pre-ALMA interferometric studies reveal precursors to early B to late O type stars with collapsing e…

Intermittency of Superpositions of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Type Processes

Danijel Grahovac, Nikolai N. Leonenko, Alla Sikorskii +1

The phenomenon of intermittency has been widely discussed in physics literature. This paper provides a model of intermittency based on Lévy driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) type proc…

Submillimeter Polarization Spectrum in the Vela C Molecular Cloud

Natalie N. Gandilo, Peter A. R. Ade, Francesco E. Angilè +27

Polarization maps of the Vela C molecular cloud were obtained at 250, 350, and 500um during the 2012 flight of the balloon-borne telescope BLASTPol. These measurements are used in…

Diagonally and antidiagonally symmetric alternating sign matrices of odd order

Roger E. Behrend, Ilse Fischer, Matjaž Konvalinka

We study the enumeration of diagonally and antidiagonally symmetric alternating sign matrices (DASASMs) of fixed odd order by introducing a case of the six-vertex model whose confi…

Another look to distortions of the CMB spectrum

G. De Zotti, M. Negrello, G. Castex +2

We review aspects of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) spectral distortions which do not appear to have been fully explored in the literature. In particular, implications of recent…

Multi-wavelength lens reconstruction of a -detected star-bursting galaxy

Nicholas Timmons, Asantha Cooray, Dominik A. Riechers +21

We present a source-plane reconstruction of a and -detected gravitationally-lensed dusty star-forming galaxy (DSFG) at using {\it Hubble}, S…

Planck intermediate results. XLI. A map of lensing-induced B-modes

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +178

The secondary cosmic microwave background (CMB) -modes stem from the post-decoupling distortion of the polarization -modes due to the gravitational lensing effect of large-sc…

Deuteration in infrared dark clouds

Matias Lackington, Gary A. Fuller, Jaime E. Pineda +3

Much of the dense gas in molecular clouds has a filamentary structure but the detailed structure and evolution of this gas is poorly known. We have observed 54 cores in infrared da…

The bolometric and UV attenuation in normal spiral galaxies of the Herschel Reference Survey

S. Viaene, M. Baes, G. Bendo +11

The dust in nearby galaxies absorbs a fraction of the UV-optical-near-infrared radiation produced by stars. This energy is consequently re-emitted in the infrared. We investigate t…

Modular nuclearity: A generally covariant perspective

Gandalf Lechner, Ko Sanders

A quantum field theory in its algebraic description may admit many irregular states. So far, selection criteria to distinguish physically reasonable states have been restricted to…
