Near-IR line-strengths in elliptical galaxies: evidence for IMF variations?

A. J. Cenarro, J. Gorgas, A. Vazdekis +2

We present new relations between recently defined line-strength indices in the near-IR (CaT*, CaT, PaT, MgI, and sTiO) and central velocity dispersion (sigma_0) for a sample of 35…

Optimal strategies in collective Parrondo games

Luis Dinis, Juan M. R. Parrondo

We present a modification of the so-called Parrondo's paradox where one is allowed to choose in each turn the game that a large number of individuals play. It turns out that, by ch…

Polarization Transfer in the ^4He(\vec e,e'\vec p)^3H Reaction up to Q^2 = 2.6 (GeV/c)^2

S. Strauch, S. Dieterich

We have measured the proton recoil polarization in the ^4He(\vec e,e'\vec p)^3H reaction at Q^2 = 0.5, 1.0, 1.6, and 2.6 (GeV/c)^2. The measured ratio of polarization transfer coef…
