Rubber friction on wet and dry road surfaces: the sealing effect
B. N. J. Persson, U. Tartaglino, O. Albohr +1
Rubber friction on wet rough substrates at low velocities is typically 20-30% smaller than for the corresponding dry surfaces. We show that this cannot be due to hydrodynamics and…
On the nature of surface roughness with application to contact mechanics, sealing, rubber friction and adhesion
B. N. J. Persson, O. Albohr, U. Tartaglino +2
Surface roughness has a huge impact on many important phenomena. The most important property of rough surfaces is the surface roughness power spectrum C(q). We present surface roug…
First results from the ATCA 18 GHz pilot survey
R. Ricci, E. M. Sadler, R. D. Ekers +7
As a pilot study for the first all-sky radio survey at short wavelengths, we have observed 1216 sq. deg. of the southern sky at 18GHz (16mm) using a novel wide-band (3.4GHz bandwid…
Observational tests of the evolution of spheroidal galaxies and predictions for SIRTF/Spitzer cosmological surveys
Laura Silva, Gianfranco De Zotti, Gian Luigi Granato +2
Granato et al(2004) have elaborated a physically grounded model exploiting the mutual feedback between star-forming spheroidal galaxies and the active nuclei growing in their cores…
Detections of Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium
L. Zappacosta, R. Maiolino, F. Mannucci +3
Several popular cosmological models predict that most of the baryonic mass in the local universe is located in filamentary and sheet-like structures associated with groups and clus…
The EMSS Radio Loud Quasar Sample
Anna Wolter, Annalisa Celotti
We construct the first X-ray selected sample of radio-loud quasars from the EMSS survey. The X-ray selection allows us to explore the properties of radio-loud quasars 10-100 weaker…
