Reducing cross-flow vibrations of underflow gates: experiments and numerical studies

C. D. Erdbrink, V. V. Krzhizhanovskaya, P. M. A. Sloot

An experimental study is combined with numerical modelling to investigate new ways to reduce cross-flow vibrations of hydraulic gates with underflow. A rectangular gate section pla…

The accretion-ejection coupling in the black hole candidate X-ray binary MAXI J1836-194

T. D. Russell, R. Soria, J. C. A. Miller-Jones +4

We present the results of our quasi-simultaneous radio, sub-mm, infrared, optical and X-ray study of the Galactic black hole candidate X-ray binary MAXI J1836-194 during its 2011 o…

Induced representations and traces for chains of affine and cyclotomic Hecke algebras

O. V. Ogievetsky, L. Poulain d'Andecy

Properties of relative traces and symmetrizing forms on chains of cyclotomic and affine Hecke algebras are studied. The study relies on a use of bases of these algebras which gener…

BPS domain walls from backreacted orientifolds

Johan Blåbäck, Bert Janssen, Thomas Van Riet +1

Compactifications with D-brane and orientifold sources lead to standard gauged supergravity theories if the sources are smeared over the internal directions. It is therefore of int…

The cooling rate of neutron stars after thermonuclear shell flashes

J. J. M. in 't Zand, A. Cumming, T. L. Triemstra +2

Thermonuclear shell flashes on neutron stars are detected as bright X-ray bursts. Traditionally, their decay is modeled with an exponential function. However, this is not what theo…

Relative Upper Confidence Bound for the K-Armed Dueling Bandit Problem

Masrour Zoghi, Shimon Whiteson, Remi Munos +1

This paper proposes a new method for the K-armed dueling bandit problem, a variation on the regular K-armed bandit problem that offers only relative feedback about pairs of arms. O…
