Eddy diffusivity of quasi-neutrally-buoyant inertial particles

Marco Martins Afonso, Paolo Muratore-Ginanneschi, Sílvio M. A. Gama +1

We investigate the large-scale transport properties of quasi-neutrally-buoyant inertial particles carried by incompressible zero-mean periodic or steady ergodic flows. We show how…

CP symmetry and thermal effects on Dirac bi-spinor spin-parity local correlations

A. E. Bernardini, V. A. S. V. Bittencourt, M. Blasone

Intrinsic quantum correlations supported by the structure of the Dirac equation used to describe particle/antiparticle states, optical ion traps and bilayer gr…

Giant magnons and spiky strings in the Schrodinger/dipole-deformed CFT correspondence

George Georgiou, Dimitrios Zoakos

We construct semi-classical string solutions of the Schrödinger spacetime, which is conjectured to be the gravity dual of a non-local dipole-deformed CFT. They a…

Valley polarized magnetic state in hole-doped mono layers of transition metal dichalcogenides

João E. H. Braz, B. Amorim, Eduardo V. Castro

We compute the valley/magnetic phase diagram of mono layers of transition metal dichalcogenides in the hole doped region where spin-orbit effects are particularly relevant. Taking…

The continuous rise of bulges out of galactic disks

I. Breda, P. Papaderos

(abridged) This study revolves around dmB, a new distance- and extinction-independent measure of the contribution by stellar populations older than 9 Gyr to the mean r-band surface…

Line-dependent veiling in very active T Tauri Stars

A. C. S. Rei, P. P. Petrov, J. F. Gameiro

The T Tauri stars with active accretion disks show veiled photospheric spectra. This is supposedly due to non-photospheric continuum radiated by hot spots beneath the accretion sho…

On the thickness of the double layer in ionic liquids

Anton Ruzanov, Meeri Lembinen, Pelle Jakovits +6

In this study, we examined the thickness of the electrical double layer (EDL) in ionic liquids using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simula…

Using the phase shift to asymptotically characterize the dipolar mixed modes in post-main-sequence stars

C. Jiang, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard, M. Cunha

Mixed modes have been extensively observed in post-main-sequence stars by the Kepler and CoRoT space missions. The mixture of the p and g modes can be measured by the dimensionless…

Distinguishing the albedo of exoplanets from stellar activity

L. M. Serrano, S. C. C. Barros, M. Oshagh +5

Light curves show the flux variation from the target star and its orbiting planets as a function of time. In addition to the transit features created by the planets, the flux also…

Revisiting concurrent separation logic

Pedro Soares, António Ravara, Simão Melo de Sousa

We present a new soundness proof of Concurrent Separation Logic (CSL) based on a structural operational semantics (SOS). We build on two previous proofs and develop new auxiliary n…

Synchrony Branching Lemma for Regular Networks

Pedro Soares

Coupled cell systems are dynamical systems associated to a network and synchrony subspaces, given by balanced colorings of the network, are invariant subspaces for every coupled ce…

The Lifting Bifurcation Problem on Feed-Forward Networks

Pedro Soares

We consider feed-forward networks, that is, networks where cells can be divided into layers, such that every edge targeting a layer, excluding the first one, starts in the prior la…

Settling velocity of quasi-neutrally-buoyant inertial particles

Marco Martins Afonso, Sílvio Marques de Almeida Gama

We investigate the sedimentation properties of quasi-neutrally buoyant inertial particles carried by incompressible zero-mean fluid flows. We obtain generic formulae for the termin…

The RoPES project with HARPS and HARPS-N. I. A system of super-Earths orbiting the moderately active K-dwarf HD 176986

A. Suárez Mascareño, J. I. González Hernández, R. Rebolo +12

We report the discovery of a system of two super-Earths orbiting the moderately active K-dwarf HD 176986. This work is part of the RoPES RV program of G- and K-type stars, which co…

On resolution of 1-dimensional foliations on 3-manifolds

Julio C. Rebelo, Helena Reis

This paper is devoted to the resolution of singularities of holomorphic vector fields and of one-dimensional holomorphic foliations in dimension 3 and it has two main objectives. F…

Dark energy, scalar singlet dark matter and the Higgs portal

Ricardo G. Landim

One of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model (SM) comprises the inclusion of a massive real scalar field, neutral under the SM gauge groups, to be a dark matter candidate.…

DC resistivity of quantum critical, charge density wave states from gauge-gravity duality

Andrea Amoretti, Daniel Areán, Blaise Goutéraux +1

In contrast to metals with weak disorder, the resistivity of weakly-pinned charge density waves (CDWs) is not controlled by irrelevant processes relaxing momentum. Instead, the lea…

On finitely generated submonoids of virtually free groups

Pedro V. Silva, Alexander Zakharov

We prove that it is decidable whether or not a finitely generated submonoid of a virtually free group is graded, introduce a new geometric characterization as quasi-geodesic monoid…

Radial coordinates for defect CFTs

Edoardo Lauria, Marco Meineri, Emilio Trevisani

We study the two-point function of local operators in the presence of a defect in a generic conformal field theory. We define two pairs of cross ratios, which are convenient in the…
