Luminous efficiency based on FRIPON meteors

Esther Drolshagen, Theresa Ott, Detlef Koschny +36

In meteor physics the luminous efficiency is used to convert the meteor's magnitude to the corresponding meteoroid's mass. However, lack of sufficiently accurate verification m…

Collisionless transport equations derived from a kinetic exospheric solar wind model with kappa velocity distribution functions

Gabriel Voitcu, Viviane Pierrard, Herve Lamy +2

In this paper we discuss the collisionless transport equations, continuity, momentum and energy conservation, derived from a kinetic exospheric model of the solar wind based on a k…

Complexity Phenomena and ROMA of the Magnetospheric Cusp, Hydrodynamic Turbulence, and the Cosmic Web

Tom Chang, Cheng-chin Wu, Marius Echim +4

Dynamic Complexity is a phenomenon exhibited by a nonlinearly interacting system within which multitudes of different sizes of large scale coherent structures emerge, resulting in…

Optical circular polarization in quasars

D. Hutsemékers, B. Borguet, D. Sluse +2

We present new optical circular polarization measurements with typical uncertainties < 0.1% for a sample of 21 quasars. All but two objects have null circular polarization. We use…

Dust in the Interplanetary Medium

Ingrid Mann, Andrzej Czechowski, Nicole Meyer-Vernet +2

The mass density of dust particles that form from asteroids and comets in the interplanetary medium of the solar system is, near 1 AU, comparable to the mass density of the solar w…

Large-Scale Alignments of Quasar Polarization Vectors: Evidence at Cosmological Scales for Very Light Pseudoscalar Particles Mixing with Photons?

D. Hutsemekers, A. Payez, R. Cabanac +4

Based on a sample of 355 quasars with significant optical polarization, we found that quasar polarization vectors are not randomly oriented over the sky as naturally expected. The…
