The Pristine survey IV: approaching the Galactic metallicity floor with the discovery of an ultra-metal-poor star

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard, Marc Gentile, Silvia Martin de Nicolas Agut

The early Universe presented a star formation environment that was almost devoid of heavy elements. The lowest metallicity stars thus provide a unique window into the earliest Galactic stages, but are exceedingly rare and difficult to find. Here, we presen ...

Photochemistry of 1- and 2-Naphthols and their Water Clusters: The Role of 1ππ*(La) Mediated Hydrogen Transfer to Carbon Atoms

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Antonio Prlj

The computational analysis of isomer- and conformer- dependent photochemistry of 1- and 2-naphthols and their microsolvated water clusters is motivated by their very different excited state reactivity. We present evidence that 1- and 2-naphthol follow dist ...

Probing the origin of cosmic rays with extremely high energy neutrinos using the IceCube Observatory

Matthias Wolf, Mark Tobin, Xiaoxia Bai, Mathieu Ribordy, Shirit Cohen

We have searched for extremely high energy neutrinos using data taken with the IceCube detector between May 2010 and May 2012. Two neutrino-induced particle shower events with energies around 1 PeV were observed, as reported previously. In this work, we in ...

Uniform broadband excitation of crystallites in rotating solids using interleaved sequences of delays alternating with nutation

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Marc Anthony Caporini, Simone Ulzega

In solids that are spinning about the magic angle, trains of short pulses in the manner of Delays Alternating with Nutations for Tailored Excitation (DANTE) allow one to improve the efficiency of the excitation of magnetization compared to rectangular puls ...

Broadband excitation and indirect detection of nitrogen-14 in rotating solids using Delays Alternating with Nutation (DANTE)

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Marc Anthony Caporini, Simone Ulzega

A train of short rotor-synchronized pulses in the manner of Delays Alternating with Nutations for Tailored Excitation (DANTE) applied to nitrogen-14 nuclei (I = 1) in samples spinning at the magic angle at high frequencies (typically nu(rot) = 62.5 kHz so ...

Acoustic resonant sensor for ultra high energy neutrino detection

Mathieu Ribordy, Reto Frei

The characterization of the cosmogenic neutrino flux would give insights into cosmological source evolution, source spectra and composition at injection, through the partial recovery of the degraded information carried by the ultra high energy cosmic rays. ...

Spectral Broadening of Characteristic gamma-Ray Emission Peaks from C-12(He-3, p gamma)N-14 Reactions in Fusion Plasmas

Patrick Blanchard, Gabriele Grosso

The spectral broadening of characteristic gamma-ray emission peaks from the reaction C-12(He-3, p gamma)N-14 was measured in D(He-3) plasmas of the JET tokamak with ion cyclotron resonance heating tuned to the fundamental harmonic of He-3. Intensities and ...
