D-term cosmic strings from N=2 Supergravity
Ana Achucarro, Alessio Celi, Mboyo Esole +2
We describe new half-BPS cosmic string solutions in N=2, d=4 supergravity coupled to one vector multiplet and one hypermultiplet. They are closely related to D-term strings in N=1…
Freezing transitions in non-Fellerian particle systems
C. Maes, F. Redig, E. Saada
Non-Fellerian processes show phenomena that are unseen in standard interacting particle systems. We consider freezing transitions in one-dimensional non-Fellerian processes which a…
Resolving the disk rotation of HD 97048 and HD 100546 in the [O I] 6300A line: evidence for a giant planet orbiting HD 100546
B. Acke, M. E. van den Ancker
Aims. We intend to spatially and spectrally resolve the [O I] emission region in two nearby Herbig stars. Methods. We present high-resolution (R = 80,000) VLT/UVES echelle spectra…
Stringy E-functions of varieties with A-D-E singularities
Jan Schepers
The stringy E-function for normal irreducible complex varieties with at worst log terminal singularities was introduced by Batyrev. It is defined by data from a log resolution. If…
Termination Analysis of General Logic Programs for Moded Queries: A Dynamic Approach
Yi-Dong Shen, Danny De Schreye
The termination problem of a logic program can be addressed in either a static or a dynamic way. A static approach performs termination analysis at compile time, while a dynamic ap…
The identification of conformal hypercomplex and quaternionic manifolds
Eric Bergshoeff, Stefan Vandoren, Antoine Van Proeyen
We review the map between hypercomplex manifolds that admit a closed homothetic Killing vector (i.e. `conformal hypercomplex' manifolds) and quaternionic manifolds of 1 dimension l…
Discovery of the neutron radiative decay
R. U. Khafizov, N. Severijns, O. Zimmer +5
The aim of this work is experimental discovery and research of a rare neutron mode, the radiative beta-decay, where a new particle, the radiative gamma-quantum, is formed along wit…
Algebraic decomposition of the electromagnetic constitutive tensor. A step toward pre-metric based gravitation?
E. Matagne
It is known that the electromagnetic constitutive tensor can be algebraically decomposed in three parts: the so-called principal part, the axion part and the skewon part (see gr-qc…
Multiple orthogonal polynomials of mixed type and non-intersecting Brownian motions
E. Daems, A. B. J. Kuijlaars
We present a generalization of multiple orthogonal polynomials of type I and type II, which we call multiple orthogonal polynomials of mixed type. Some basic properties are formula…
Second law of thermodynamics for macroscopic mechanics coupled to thermodynamic degrees of freedom
Christian Maes, Hal Tasaki
Based only on classical Hamiltonian dynamics, we prove the maximum work principle in a system where macroscopic dynamical degrees of freedom are intrinsically coupled to microscopi…
The mid- and far-infrared colours of AGB and post-AGB stars
M. A. T. Groenewegen
With the advent of space missions, like SPITZER and ASTRO-F, with sensitive detectors in the near- and mid-infra red covering a reasonable field-of-view and having a good spatial r…
Multiperiodicity in the large-amplitude rapidly-rotating Ceph ei star HD 203664
C. Aerts, P. De Cat, J. De Ridder +4
We perform a seismic study of the young massive Cephei star HD 203664 with the goal to constrain its interior structure. Our study is based on a time series of 328 new Geneva 7-…
Analysis of MERCATOR data Part I: variable B stars
P. De Cat, M. Briquet, C. Aerts +7
We re-classified 31 variable B stars which were observed more than 50 times in the Geneva photometric system with the P7 photometer attached to the MERCATOR telescope (La Palma) du…
Observational results for northern and southern (candidate) gamma Doradus stars
P. De Cat, K. Goossens, F. Bouckaert +7
We report on observational results obtained for 78 objects originally classified as bona-fide or candidate gamma Doradus stars. For the southern objects, we gathered echelle spectr…
A spectroscopic study of southern (candidate) gamma Doradus stars. I. Time series analysis
P. De Cat, L. Eyer, J. Cuypers +9
We present results of a spectroscopic study of 37 southern (candidate) gamma Doradus stars based on echelle spectra. The observed spectra were cross-correlated with the standard te…
Comparing two definitions for gauge variations of dielectric D-branes
Joke Adam
We compare two definitions of gauge variations in the case of non-Abelian actions for multiple D-branes. Equivalence is proven for the R-R variations, which shows that the action i…
String splitting and strong coupling meson decay
A. L. Cotrone, L. Martucci, W. Troost
We study the decay of high spin mesons using the gauge/string theory correspondence. The rate of the process is calculated by studying the splitting of a macroscopic string interse…
A Self-Organized-Criticality model consistent with statistical properties of edge turbulence in a fusion plasma
Fabio Sattin, Marco Baiesi
The statistical properties of the intermittent signal generated by a recent model for self-organized-criticality (SOC) are examined. A successful comparison is made with previously…
Trends in Space Astronomy and Cosmic Vision 2015-2025
Catherine Turon, Chris Done, Andreas Quirrenbach +14
As a short introduction to the astronomy session, the response of the community to the Call for Themes issued by ESA and the specific themes selected by the Astronomy Working Group…
A new picture for 4-dimensional 'spacetime' from intersecting D-branes on the T^9
Tassilo Ott
A factorization of spacetime of the form M^3xM^3xM^3 is considered in this paper as the closed string background in type IIA. The idea behind this construction is that each M^3 mig…
Estimating stellar oscillation-related parameters and their uncertainties with the moment method
Joris De Ridder, Geert Molenberghs, Conny Aerts
The moment method is a well known mode identification technique in asteroseismology (where `mode' is to be understood in an astronomical rather than in a statistical sense), which…
A New Look at an Old Mass Relation
J. -M. Gerard, F. Goffinet, M. Herquet
New data from neutrino oscillation experiments motivate us to extend a successful mass relation for the charged leptons to the other fundamental fermions. This new universal relati…
On metastable configurations of small-world networks
R. Heylen, N. S. Skantzos, J. Busquets Blanco +1
We calculate the number of metastable configurations of Ising small-world networks which are constructed upon superimposing sparse Poisson random graphs onto a one-dimensional chai…
The Metallicity Dependence of the Cepheid Period-Luminosity Relation
M. Romaniello, M. Mottini, F. Primas +3
We have assessed the influence of the stellar iron content on the Cepheid Period-Luminosity (PL) relation by relating the V band residuals from the Freedman et al (2001) PL relatio…
