H.E.S.S. observations of the supernova remnant RCW 86

S. Hoppe, M. Lemoine-Goumard

The shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) RCW 86 - possibly associated with the historical supernova SN 185 - was observed during the past three years with the High Energy Stereoscopi…

Low-Density Parity-Check Codes for Nonergodic Block-Fading Channels

Joseph J. Boutros, Albert Guillen i Fabregas, Ezio Biglieri +1

We solve the problem of designing powerful low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with iterative decoding for the block-fading channel. We first study the case of maximum-likelihood…

Interferometric imaging of the sulfur-bearing molecules H2S, SO and CS in comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp)

J. Boissier, D. Bockelée-Morvan, N. Biver +4

We present observations of rotational lines of H2S, SO and CS performed in comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) in March 1997 with the Plateau de Bure interferometer (IRAM). The observation…

Structure-Dependent Fluorescence Efficiencies of Individual Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

Dmitri A. Tsyboulski, John-David R. Rocha, Sergei M. Bachilo +2

Single-nanotube photometry was used to measure the product of absorption cross-section and fluorescence quantum yield for 12 (n,m) structural species of semiconducting SWNTs in aqu…

Thermophoresis of charged colloidal particles

S. Fayolle, T. Bickel, A. Würger

Thermally induced particle flow in a charged colloidal suspension is studied in a fluid-mechanical approach. The force density acting on the charged boundary layer is derived in de…

Light-driven liquid crystalline nonlinear oscillator under optical periodic forcing

Dmitry O. Krimer, Etienne Brasselet

An all-optically driven strategy to govern a liquid crystalline collective molecular nonlinear oscillator is discussed. It does not require external feedbacks of any kind while the…

Vortex States Induced by Proximity Effect in Hybrid Ferromagnet-Superconductor Systems

A. V. Samokhvalov, A. S. Mel'nikov, A. I. Buzdin

We consider superconductivity nucleation in multiply connected mesoscopic samples such as thin-walled cylinders or rings placed in electrical contact with a ferromagnet. The superc…

Long range triplet Josephson effect through a ferromagnetic trilayer

M. Houzet, A. I. Buzdin

We study the Josephson current through a ferromagnetic trilayer, both in the diffusive and clean limits. For colinear (parallel or antiparallel) magnetizations in the layers, the J…

On The Local Well-Posedness for Some Systems of Coupled KdV Equations

Borys Alvarez-Samaniego, Xavier Carvajal

Using the theory developed by Kenig, Ponce, and Vega, we prove that the Hirota-Satsuma system is locally well-posed in Sobolev spaces for…

The tensor part of the Skyrme energy density functional. I. Spherical nuclei

T. Lesinski, M. Bender, K. Bennaceur +2

We perform a systematic study of the impact of the J^2 tensor term in the Skyrme energy functional on properties of spherical nuclei. In the Skyrme energy functional, the tensor te…

Large time existence for 3D water-waves and asymptotics

Borys Alvarez-Samaniego, David Lannes

We rigorously justify in 3D the main asymptotic models used in coastal oceanography, including: shallow-water equations, Boussinesq systems, Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) approximati…

Probing the structure of protoplanetary disks: a comparative study of DM Tau, LkCa 15 and MWC 480

Vincent Piétu, Anne Dutrey, Stéphane Guilloteau

We report sub-arcsec CO observations of the disks around MWC 480, LkCa 15 and DM Tau, and simultaneous measurements of HCO+ J=1-0. We derive the disk properties by fitting a standa…

Coherent acoustic vibration of metal nanoshells

C. Guillon, P. Langot, N. Del Fatti +5

Using time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy we have performed the first investigation of the vibrational modes of gold nanoshells. The fundamental isotropic mode launched by a femt…

Asymptotics of characters of symmetric groups related to Stanley character formula

Valentin Féray, Piotr Sniady

We prove an upper bound for characters of the symmetric groups. Namely, we show that there exists a constant a>0 with a property that for every Young diagram λwith n boxes, r(λ) ro…
