Nainital Microlensing Survey -- detection of short period Cepheids in the disk of M31
Y. C. Joshi, D. Narasimha, A. K. Pandey +1
The discovery of large number of Cepheid variables in far-off galaxies offers a unique opportunity to determine the accurate distance of the host galaxy through their period-lumino…
ROSA: a high cadence, synchronized multi-camera solar imaging system
D. B. Jess, M. Mathioudakis, D. J. Christian +3
Rapid Oscillations in the Solar Atmosphere (ROSA) is a synchronized, six camera high cadence solar imaging instrument developed by Queen's University Belfast. The system is availab…
Comment on "Electron transport through correlated molecules computed using the time-independent Wigner function: Two critical tests"
J. C. Greer, P. Delaney, G. Fagas
The many electron correlated scattering (MECS) approach to quantum electronic transport was investigated in the linear response regime [I. Baldea and H. Koeppel, Phys. Rev. B. 78,…
Optical and near infrared coverage of SN 2004et: physical parameters and comparison with other type IIP supernovae
K. Maguire, E. Di Carlo, S. J. Smartt +22
We present new optical and near infrared (NIR) photometry and spectroscopy of the type IIP supernova, SN 2004et. In combination with already published data, this provides one of th…
Type II-P supernovae as standardised candles: improvements using near infrared data
Kate Maguire, Rubina Kotak, Stephen J. Smartt +3
We present the first near infrared Hubble diagram for type II-P supernovae to further explore their value as distance indicators. We use a modified version of the standardised cand…
The quiet solar atmosphere observed and simulated in NaD1
J. Leenaarts, R. J. Rutten, K. Reardon +2
The NaD1 line in the solar spectrum is sometimes attributed to the solar chromosphere. We study its formation in quiet-Sun network and internetwork. We first present high-resolutio…
On the progenitor and early evolution of the type II supernova 2009kr
M. Fraser, K. Takats, A. Pastorello +13
We report the identification of a source coincident with SN 2009kr in HST pre-explosion images. The object appears to be a single point source with an intrinsic colour V-I = 1.1 an…
Accurate "superluminal" transmission via entanglement, superoscillations and quasi-Dirac distributions
D. Sokolovski, R. Sala Mayato
We analyse a system in which, due to entanglement between the spin and spatial degrees of freedom, the reduced transmitted state has the shape of the freely propagating pulse trans…
The spin-orbit alignment of the transiting exoplanet WASP-3b from Rossiter-McLaughlin observations
E. K. Simpson, D. Pollacco, G. Hebrard +7
We present an observation of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect for the planetary system WASP-3. Radial velocity measurements were made during transit using the SOPHIE spectrograph at…
On the nature of the progenitors of three type II-P supernovae: 2004et, 2006my and 2006ov
R. M. Crockett, S. J. Smartt, A. Pastorello +4
The pre-explosion observations of the type II-P supernovae 2006my, 2006ov and 2004et, are re-analysed. In the cases of supernovae 2006my and 2006ov we argue that the published cand…
Vortex entanglement in Bose-Einstein condensates coupled to Laguerre-Gauss beams
N. Lo Gullo, S. McEndoo, Th. Busch +1
We study the establishment of vortex entanglement in remote and weakly interacting Bose Einstein condensates. We consider a two-mode photonic resource entangled in its orbital angu…
On the density-potential mapping in time-dependent density functional theory
Neepa T. Maitra, Tchavdar N. Todorov, Chris Woodward +1
The key questions of uniqueness and existence in time-dependent density functional theory are usually formulated only for potentials and densities that are analytic in time. Simple…
The Return of Activity in Main-Belt Comet 133P/Elst-Pizarro
Henry H. Hsieh, David Jewitt, Pedro Lacerda +2
Comet 133P/Elst-Pizarro is the first-known and currently best-characterised member of the main-belt comets, a recently-identified class of objects that exhibit cometary activity bu…
Schur and operator multipliers
I. G. Todorov, L. Turowska
Schur multipliers were introduced by Schur in the early 20th century and have since then found a considerable number of applications in Analysis and enjoyed an intensive developmen…
Relative unitary commutator calculus and applications
R. Hazrat, N. Vavilov, Z. Zhang
This note revisits localisation and patching method in the setting of generalised unitary groups. Introducing certain subgroups of relative elementary unitary groups, we develop re…
Quantum state transfer via temporal kicking of information
C. Di Franco, M. Paternostro, M. S. Kim
We propose a strategy for perfect state transfer in spin chains based on the use of an unmodulated coupling Hamiltonian whose coefficients are explicitly time dependent. We show th…
Emergence of canonical ensembles from pure quantum states
Jaeyoon Cho, M. S. Kim
We consider a system weakly interacting with a bath as a thermodynamic setting to establish a quantum foundation of statistical physics. It is shown that even if the composite syst…
The Dark Red Spot on KBO Haumea
Pedro Lacerda
Kuiper belt object 136108 Haumea is one of the most fascinating bodies in our solar system. Approximately 2000x1600x1000 km in size, it is one of the largest Kuiper belt objects (K…
The Sizes of Kuiper Belt Objects
Pedro Lacerda
One of the most fundamental problems in the study of Kuiper belt objects (KBOs) is to know their true physical size. Without knowledge of their albedos we are not able to distingui…
Mesophases in Nearly 2D Room-Temperature Ionic Liquids
N. Manini, M. Cesaratto, M. G. Del Popolo +1
Computer simulations of (i) a [C12mim][Tf2N] film of nanometric thickness squeezed at kbar pressure by a piecewise parabolic confining potential reveal a mesoscopic in-plane densit…
EC-SNe from super-AGB progenitors: theoretical models vs. observations
M. L. Pumo, M. Turatto, M. T. Botticella +6
Using a parametric approach, we determine the configuration of super-AGB stars at the explosion as a function of the initial mass and metallicity, in order to verify if the EC-SN s…
