Regularization for distributionally robust state estimation and prediction

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Jean-Sébastien Hubert Brouillon

The increasing availability of sensing techniques provides a great opportunity for engineers to design state estimation methods, which are optimal for the system under observation and the observed noise patterns. However, these patterns often do not fulfil ...

Strong and micro lensing in distant quasars

Eric Gérard Guy Paic

Most large galaxies contain Super Massive Black Holes at their centers, drawing matter nearby to form swirling accretion disks emitting electromagnetic radiation. These are Active Galactic Nuclei. The brightest quasars are the most luminous Universe object ...

Constraints on dark matter to dark radiation conversion in the late universe with DES-Y1 and external data

Eduardo Sanchez, Jonathan Andrew Blazek

We study a phenomenological class of models where dark matter converts to dark radiation in the low redshift epoch. This class of models, dubbed DMDR, characterizes the evolution of comoving dark-matter density with two extra parameters, and may be able to ...

Effective photon mass and (dark) photon conversion in the inhomogeneous Universe

Kyrylo Bondarenko

Photons traveling cosmological distances through the inhomogeneous Universe experience a great variation in their in-medium induced effective mass. Using the EAGLE suite of hydrodynamical simulations, we infer the free electron distribution and thereby the ...
