The formation of the milky way halo and its dwarf satellites: a NLTE-1D abundance analysis. IV. Segue 1, Triangulumii, and Coma Berenices UFDs

We present atmospheric parameters and abundances for chemical elements from carbon to barium in metal-poor stars in Segue 1 (seven stars), Coma Berenices (three stars), and Triangulum II (one star) ultrafaint dwarf galaxies (UFDs). The effective temperatur ...

BBN constraints on universally-coupled ultralight scalar dark matter

Sergey Sibiryakov

Ultralight scalar dark matter can interact with all massive Standard Model particles through a universal coupling. Such a coupling modifies the Standard Model particle masses and affects the dynamics of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We model the cosmological e ...

Generation and observation of fast deuterium ions and fusion-born alpha particles in JET D-He-3 plasmas with the 3-ion radio-frequency heating scenario

Henri Weisen, Javier García Hernández, Alberto Mariani, Samuele Mazzi

Dedicated experiments to generate energetic D ions and D-(3) He fusion-born alpha particles were performed at the Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall (ILW). Using the 3-ion D-(D-NBI)-(3) He radio frequency (RF) heating scenario, deuterium io ...

Constant light element abundances suggest that the extended P1 in NGC 2808 is not a consequence of CNO-cycle nucleosynthesis

Carmela Lardo

Recent photometric results have identified a new population among globular cluster stars. This population, referred to as the 'extended P1', has been suggested to be the manifestation of a new abundance pattern where the initial mass fraction of He changes ...

VLT/FLAMES high-resolution chemical abundances in Sculptor: a textbook dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

We present detailed chemical abundances for 99 red-giant branch stars in the centre of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, which have been obtained from high-resolution VLT/FLAMES spectroscopy. The abundances of Li, Na, alpha-elements (O, Mg, Si, Ca Ti), ...

Broadbeam microstrip patch antenna using higher order modes

Anja Skrivervik, Ismael Vico Triviño

The aim of this contribution is to assess the potential of using various microstrip radiating elements excited with different modes to achieve wide pattern beamwidths. The proposed antenna is made in classic microstrip technology and consists of a circular ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Galactic evolution of sulphur and zinc

Carmela Lardo

Context. Due to their volatile nature, when sulphur and zinc are observed in external galaxies, their determined abundances represent the gas-phase abundances in the interstellar medium. This implies that they can be used as tracers of the chemical enrichm ...

Carbon and nitrogen abundances of individual stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

We present [C/Fe] and [N/Fe] abundance ratios and CH(lambda 4300) and S(lambda 3883) index measurements for 94 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy from VLT/VIMOS MOS observations at a resolving power R = 1150 at 4020 A. Thi ...

The last stages of star formation in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans

Romaine Theler

This thesis is anchored in the research of better understanding of the chemical evolution of galaxies. Many dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) are orbiting the Milky Way displaying various star formation histories. The formation of these dwarf galaxies and t ...

The post-infall evolution of a satellite galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Matthew Luke Nichols

We describe a new method that only focuses on the local region surrounding an infalling dwarf in an effort to understand how the hot baryonic halo alters the chemodynamical evolution of dwarf galaxies. Using this method, we examine how a dwarf, similar to ...

Novel technique for supernova detection with IceCube

Mathieu Ribordy

The current supernova detection technique used in IceCube relies on the sudden deviation of the summed photomultiplier noise rate from its nominal value during the neutrino burst, making IceCube a approximate to 3 Megaton effective detection volume - class ...

Constraints on high-energy neutrino emission from SN 2008D

Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Matthias Wolf, Xiaoxia Bai

SN 2008D, a core collapse supernova at a distance of 27 Mpc, was serendipitously discovered by the Swift satellite through an associated X-ray flash. Core collapse supernovae have been observed in association with long gamma-ray bursts and X-ray flashes an ...

Microturbulence driven transport of energetic ions in the ITER steady-state scenario

Mattia Albergante

Modelling of microturbulence-driven transport of energetic ions in an ITER steady-state scenario is presented. Results indicate that a significant fraction of the velocity space distribution of alpha particles and deuterium ions can be transported above ne ...

Stability properties of anisotropic pressure stellarator plasmas with fluid and noninteractive energetic particles

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Jonathan Graves, Trach-Minh Tran

The three-dimensional (3-D) VMEC code has been modified to model an energetic species with a variant of a Bi-Maxwellian distribution function that satisfies the constraint B . del F-h = 0, and the 3-D TERPSICHORE stability code has been extended to investi ...

Study of spectral heterogeneities for the interpretation of calculational trends in predicting pin power distributions in a SVEA-96+ BWR assembly

Rakesh Chawla, Filippo Tani, Fabian Jatuff

Detailed energy spectra have been calculated with the codes CASMO-4 and BOXER for neutron reaction rates in individual regions of a Westinghouse SVEA-96+ BWR fuel assembly immersed in water at room temperature, as investigated in Core 1A of the LWR-PROTEUS ...
