Majorana edge states in interacting one-dimensional systems
Suhas Gangadharaiah, Bernd Braunecker, Pascal Simon +1
We show that one-dimensional electron systems in proximity of a superconductor that support Majorana edge states are extremely susceptible to electron-electron interactions. Strong…
Water in IRC+10216: a genuine formation process by shock-induced chemistry in the inner wind
Isabelle Cherchneff
Context: The presence of water in the wind of the extreme carbon star IRC+10216 has been confirmed by the Herschel telescope. The regions where the high-J H2O lines have been detec…
Explosive nucleosynthesis in core-collapse supernovae
A. Arcones
The specific mechanism and astrophysical site for the production of half of the elements heavier than iron via rapid neutron capture (r-process) remains to be found. In order to re…
Modified spin-wave theory with ordering vector optimization II: Spatially anisotropic triangular lattice and model with Heisenberg interactions
Philipp Hauke, Tommaso Roscilde, Valentin Murg +2
We study the ground state phases of the Heisenberg quantum antiferromagnet on the spatially anisotropic triangular lattice and on the square lattice with up to next-next-ne…
Origin of the p-Nuclei in Explosive Nucleosynthesis
T. Rauscher
A number of naturally occurring, proton-rich nuclides (the p-nuclei) cannot be made in the s- and r-process. It has been found that massive stars can produce p-nuclei through photo…
Origin of the Chemical Elements
T. Rauscher, A. Patkos
This review provides the necessary background from astrophysics, nuclear, and particle physics to understand the cosmic origin of the chemical elements. It reflects the year 2009 s…
Photoproduction of -mesons off the deuteron
I. Jaegle, T. Mertens, A. Fix +62
Quasi-free photoproduction of mesons off nucleons bound in the deuteron has been measured with the combined Crystal Barrel - TAPS detector. The experiment was done at a tagged…
Determining reaction cross sections via characteristic X-ray detection: α-induced reactions on 169Tm for the astrophysical γ -process
G. G. Kiss, T. Rauscher, T. Szücs +7
The cross sections of the 169Tm(α, γ)173Lu and 169Tm(α,n)172Lu reactions have been measured first time using a new method, by detecting the characteristic X-ray radiation following…
New period-luminosity and period-color relations of classical Cepheids. IV. The low-metallicity galaxies IC 1613, WLM, Pegasus, Sextans A and B, and Leo A in comparison to SMC
G. A. Tammann, B. Reindl, A. Sandage
The metal-poor, fundamental-mode (P0) and first-overtone (P1) Cepheids in the dwarf galaxies IC 1613, WLM, Pegasus, Sextans A, Sextans B, and Leo A are compared with the about equa…
Symmetry & Controllability for Spin Networks with a Single-Node Control
Xiaoting Wang, Peter Pemberton-Ross, Sophie G Schirmer
We consider the relation of symmetries and subspace controllability for spin networks with XXZ coupling subject to control of a single node by a local potential (Z-control). Such n…
The energy landscape of fullerene materials: a comparison between boron, boron-nitride and carbon
Sandip De, Alexander Willand, Maximilian Amsler +3
Using the minima hopping global geometry optimization method on the density functional potential energy surface we study medium size and large boron clusters. Even though for isola…
Ideal Quantum non-demolishing measurement of a flux qubit at variable bias
Ying-Dan Wang, Xiaobo Zhu, Christoph Bruder
We propose a scheme to realize a quantum non-demolition (QND) measurement of a superconducting flux qubit by a Josephson bifurcation amplifier. Our scheme can implement a perfect Q…
Numerical Parameter Survey of Nonradiative Black Hole Accretion -- Flow Structure and Variability of the Rotation Measure
Bijia Pang, Ue-Li Pen, Christopher D. Matzner +2
We conduct a survey of numerical simulations to probe the structure and appearance of non-radiative black hole accretion flows like the supermassive black hole at the Galactic cent…
Simple relations in the Cremona group
Jérémy Blanc
We give a simple set of generators and relations for the Cremona group of the plane. Namely, we show that the Cremona group is the amalgamated product of the de Jonquières group wi…
Helical modes in carbon nanotubes generated by strong electric fields
Jelena Klinovaja, Manuel J. Schmidt, Bernd Braunecker +1
Helical modes, conducting opposite spins in opposite directions, are shown to exist in metallic armchair nanotubes in an all-electric setup. This is a consequence of the interplay…
The Origin of Dust in the Early Universe: Probing the Star Formation History of Galaxies by their Dust Content
Eli Dwek, Isabelle Cherchneff
Two distinct scenarios for the origin of the ~ 4 \times 10^8 M\odot of dust observed in the high-redshift (z = 6.4) quasar J1148+5251 have been proposed. The first assumes that thi…
The effect of ionization on the global minima of small and medium sized silicon and magnesium clusters
Sandip De, S. Alireza Ghasemi, Alexander Willand +3
We re-examine the question of whether the geometrical ground state of neutral and ionized clusters are identical. Using a well defined criterion for being "identical" together, the…
Quantum memory coupled to cavity modes
Fabio L. Pedrocchi, Stefano Chesi, Daniel Loss
Inspired by spin-electric couplings in molecular magnets, we introduce in the Kitaev honeycomb model a linear modification of the Ising interactions due to the presence of quantize…
Core-collapse supernova explosions triggered by a quark-hadron phase transition during the early post-bounce phase
T. Fischer, I. Sagert, G. Pagliara +7
We explore explosions of massive stars, which are triggered via the quark-hadron phase transition during the early post bounce phase of core-collapse supernovae. We construct a qua…
