Universe's Primordial Quantum Memories

Gia Dvali, Lukas Eisemann, Marco Michel +1

We provide a very general argument showing that the Universe must have kept its quantum memories from an epoch much earlier than e-foldings before the end of inflation. The po…

Non-commutative Fourier transform for the Lorentz group via the Duflo map

Daniele Oriti, Giacomo Rosati

We defined a non-commutative algebra representation for quantum systems whose phase space is the cotangent bundle of the Lorentz group, and the non-commutative Fourier transform en…

Strong Strain-Induced Coupling between Nanomechanical Pillar Resonators

Juliane Doster, Simon Hoenl, Heribert Lorenz +2

Networks of coupled resonators are an ubiquitous concept in physics, forming the basis of synchronization phenomena, metamaterial formation, nonreciprocal behavior and topological…

Circumstellar dust distribution in systems with two planets in resonance

Francesco Marzari, Gennaro D'Angelo, Giovanni Picogna

We investigate via numerical modeling the effects of two planets locked in resonance, and migrating outward, on the dust distribution of the natal circumstellar disk. We aim to tes…

The imprint of X-ray photoevaporation of planet-forming discs on the orbital distribution of giant planets

Kristina Monsch, Barbara Ercolano, Giovanni Picogna +2

High energy radiation from a planet host star can have strong influence on the final habitability of a system through several mechanisms. In this context we have constructed a cata…

The main sequence of star forming galaxies I. The local relation and its bending

P. Popesso, A. Concas, L. Morselli +11

By using a set of different SFR indicators, including WISE mid-infrared and Halpha emission, we study the slope of the Main Sequence (MS) of local star forming galaxies at stellar…
