Weak-Link Phenomena in AC-Biased Transition Edge Sensors
Luciano Gottardi, Hiroki Akamatsu, Marcel Bruijn +9
It has been recently demonstrated that superconducting transition edge sensors (TESs) behave as weak-links due to longitudinally induced superconductivity from the leads with highe…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission IX. CoRoT-6b: a transiting `hot Jupiter' planet in an 8.9d orbit around a low-metallicity star
M. Fridlund, G. Hebrard, R. Alonso +45
The CoRoT satellite exoplanetary team announces its sixth transiting planet in this paper. We describe and discuss the satellite observations as well as the complementary ground-ba…
Nulling interferometry: impact of exozodiacal clouds on the performance of future life-finding space missions
D. Defrère, O. Absil, R. den Hartog +2
Earth-sized planets around nearby stars are being detected for the first time by ground-based radial velocity and space-based transit surveys. This milestone is opening the path to…
Nulling interferometry: performance comparison between space and ground-based sites for exozodiacal disc detection
D. Defrère, O. Absil, V. Coudé du Foresto +2
Characterising the circumstellar dust around nearby main sequence stars is a necessary step in understanding the planetary formation process and is crucial for future life-finding…
Critical temperature of superconducting bilayers: theory and experiment
G. Brammertz, A. A. Golubov, P. Verhoeve +3
A generalized model for the critical temperature Tc of superconducting bilayers is presented, which is valid with no restrictions to film thicknesses, Tc of the layers and interfac…
Enhancement of photo-responsivity of small gap, multiple tunnelling superconducting tunnel junctions due to quasiparticle multiplication
G. Brammertz, A. G. Kozorezov, R. den Hartog +5
We recently predicted the formation of a highly non-equilibrium quasiparticle (qp) distribution in low TC multiple tunnelling superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs) [1]. The situa…
