Multiple scale kinetic simulations with the energy conserving semi implicit particle in cell (PIC) method

Giovanni Lapenta, Diego Gonzalez-Herrero, Elisabetta Boella

The recently developed energy conserving semi-implicit method (ECsim) for PIC simulation is applied to multiple scale problems where the electron-scale physics needs to be only par…

Capillary wave dynamics and interface structure modulation in binary Bose-Einstein condensate mixtures

Joseph O. Indekeu, Thu Van Nguyen, Chang-You Lin +1

The localized low-energy interfacial excitations, or Nambu-Goldstone modes, of phase-segregated binary mixtures of Bose-Einstein condensates are investigated analytically by means…

Approximate central limit theorems

Ben Berckmoes, Geert Molenberghs

We refine the classical Lindeberg-Feller central limit theorem by obtaining asymptotic bounds on the Kolmogorov distance, the Wasserstein distance, and the parametrized Prokhorov d…

Construction and implementation of asymptotic expansions for Laguerre-type orthogonal polynomials

Daan Huybrechs, Peter Opsomer

Laguerre and Laguerre-type polynomials are orthogonal polynomials on the interval with respect to a weight function of the form $w(x) = x^α e^{-Q(x)}, Q(x) = \sum_{k=0…

Structured backward error analysis of linearized structured polynomial eigenvalue problems

Froilán M. Dopico, Javier Pérez, Paul Van Dooren

We introduce a new class of structured matrix polynomials, namely, the class of M_A-structured matrix polynomials, to provide a common framework for many classes of structured matr…

Emergent structures and dynamics of cell colonies by contact inhibition of locomotion

Bart Smeets, Ricard Alert, Jiri Pesek +3

Cells in tissues can organize into a broad spectrum of structures according to their function. Drastic changes of organization, such as epithelial-mesenchymal transitions or the fo…

V473 Lyr, a modulated, period-doubled Cepheid, and U TrA, a double-mode Cepheid observed by MOST

L. Molnár, A. Derekas, R. Szabó +36

Space-based photometric measurements first revealed low-amplitude irregularities in the pulsations of Cepheid stars, but their origins and how commonly they occur remain uncertain.…

Holographic torus entanglement and its RG flow

Pablo Bueno, William Witczak-Krempa

We study the universal contributions to the entanglement entropy (EE) of 2+1d and 3+1d holographic conformal field theories (CFTs) on topologically non-trivial manifolds, focusing…

Asymptotic Localization in the Bose-Hubbard Model

Alex Bols, Wojciech De Roeck

We consider the Bose-Hubbard model. Our focus is on many-body localization, which was described by many authors in such models, even in the absence of disorder. Since our work is r…

Do A-type stars flare?

M. G. Pedersen, V. Antoci, H. Korhonen +5

For flares to be generated, stars have to have a sufficiently deep outer convection zone (F5 and later), strong large--scale magnetic fields (Ap/Bp-type stars) or strong, radiative…

Entanglement equilibrium for higher order gravity

Pablo Bueno, Vincent S. Min, Antony J. Speranza +1

We show that the linearized higher derivative gravitational field equations are equivalent to an equilibrium condition on the entanglement entropy of small spherical regions in vac…

Fast Hessenberg reduction of some rank structured matrices

Luca Gemignani, Leonardo Robol

We develop two fast algorithms for Hessenberg reduction of a structured matrix where is a real or unitary diagonal matrix and $U, V \in\mathbb{C}^{n…

Non-perturbative aspects of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories in linear covariant gauges: Nielsen identities and a BRST invariant two-point correlation function

M. A. L. Capri, D. Dudal, A. D. Pereira +5

In order to construct a gauge invariant two-point function in a Yang-Mills theory, we propose the use of the all-order gauge invariant transverse configurations A^h. Such configura…

A second post-AGB nebula that contains gas in rotation and in expansion: ALMA maps of IW Car

V. Bujarrabal, A. Castro-Carrizo, H. Van Winckel +2

We aim to study the presence of both rotation and expansion in post-AGB nebulae, in particular around IW Car, a binary post-AGB star that was suspected to be surrounded by a Kepler…

Post-common envelope PN, fundamental or irrelevant?

Orsola De Marco, T. Reichardt, R. Iaconi +6

One in 5 planetary nebulae are ejected from common envelope binary interactions but Kepler Space Telescope results are already showing this proportion to be larger. Their propertie…

Insights from Asteroseismology of Massive Stars: The Need for Additional Angular Momentum Transport Mechanisms

Ehsan Moravveji

In massive stars, rotation and oscillatory waves can have a tight interplay. In order to assess the importance of additional angular momentum transport mechanisms other than rotati…

Clustered Cell Decomposition in P-Minimal Structures

Saskia Chambille, Pablo Cubides Kovacsics, Eva Leenknegt

We prove that in a -minimal structure, every definable set can be partitioned as a finite union of classical cells and regular clustered cells. This is a generalization of previ…

ALMA Compact Array observations of the Fried Egg nebula: Evidence for large-scale asymmetric mass-loss from the yellow hypergiant IRAS 17163-3907

Sofia Wallstrom, E. Lagadec, S. Muller +12

Yellow hypergiants are rare and represent a fast evolutionary stage of massive evolved stars. That evolutionary phase is characterised by a very intense mass loss, the understandin…

Fusion of Range and Thermal Images for Person Detection

Wim Abbeloos, Toon Goedemé

Detecting people in images is a challenging problem. Differences in pose, clothing and lighting, along with other factors, cause a lot of variation in their appearance. To overcome…
