Data-driven cortical clustering to provide a family of plausible solutions to M/EEG inverse problem

Kostiantyn Maksymenko, Maureen Clerc, Théodore Papadopoulo

The M/EEG inverse problem is ill-posed. Thus additional hypotheses are needed to constrain the solution space. In this work, we consider that brain activity which generates an M/EE…

Quantitative estimation of effective viscosity in quantum turbulence

Vishwanath Shukla, Pablo D. Mininni, Giorgio Krstulovic +2

We study freely decaying quantum turbulence by performing high resolution numerical simulations of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) in the Taylor-Green geometry. We use resoluti…

GaN Schottky diodes for proton beam monitoring

Jean-Yves Duboz, Julie Zucchi, Eric Frayssinet +7

We have demonstrated that GaN Schottky diodes can be used for high energy (64.8 MeV) proton detection. Such proton beams are used for tumor treatment, for which accurate and radiat…

Constraining the p-mode--g-mode tidal instability with GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1136

We analyze the impact of a proposed tidal instability coupling -modes and -modes within neutron stars on GW170817. This non-resonant instability transfers energy from the orb…

Physical, spectral, and dynamical properties of asteroid (107) Camilla and its satellites

M. Pajuelo, B. Carry, F. Vachier +24

The population of large asteroids is thought to be primordial and they are the most direct witnesses of the early history of our Solar System. Those satellites allow study of the m…

Non-integrability of the minimum-time Kepler problem

Michael Orieux, Jean-Baptiste Caillau, Jacques Féjoz +1

We prove that the minimum-time controlled Kepler problem is not Liouville integrable in the class of meromorphic functions, via the Moralès-Ramis theory.
