Using Laser-Induced Rydberg Spectroscopy diagnostic for direct measurements of the local electric field in the edge region of NSTX/NSTX-U: Modeling

Luc Reymond

We discuss a novel diagnostic allowing direct measurements of the local electric field in the edge region of NSTX/NSTX-U. This laser based diagnostic's principle consists of depleting the naturally populated n = 3 level to a Rydberg state-sensitive to elec ...

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 ...

A Multifaceted Approach to Covert Attention Brain-Computer Interfaces

Christoph Schneider

Over the last years, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have shown their value for assistive technology and neurorehabilitation. Recently, a BCI-approach for the rehabilitation of hemispatial neglect has been proposed on the basis of covert visuospatial atte ...

A High Space Density of Luminous Ly alpha Emitters at z similar to 6.5

Hakim Atek

We present the results of a systematic search for Ly alpha emitters (LAEs) at 6 less than or similar to z less than or similar to 7.6 using the HST WFC3 Infrared Spectroscopic Parallel (WISP) Survey. Our total volume over this redshift range is similar to ...

Detachment evolution on the TCV tokamak

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Marco Wischmeier, Benoît Labit, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Umar Sheikh, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Wouter Vijvers, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh

Divertor detachment in the TCV tokamak has been investigated through experiments and modelling. Density ramp experiments were carried out in ohmic heated L-mode pulses with the ion del B drift directed away from the primary X-point, similar to previous stu ...

MUSE- inspired view of the quasar Q2059-360, its Lyman alpha blob, and its neighborhood

Frédéric Courbin, Pierre North, Claudio Gorgoni

The radio-quiet quasar Q2059-360 at redshift z = 3 : 08 is known to be close to a small Lyman ff blob (LAB) and to be absorbed by a proximate damped Ly ff (PDLA) system. Here, we present the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) integral field spectrosc ...

Impact of neutral density fluctuations on gas puff imaging diagnostics

Paolo Ricci, Christoph Wersal

A three-dimensional turbulence simulation of the SOL and edge regions of a toroidally limited tokamak is carried out. The simulation couples self-consistently the drift-reduced two-fluid Braginskii equations to a kinetic equation for neutral atoms. A diagn ...

The Lyman alpha reference sample VII. Spatially resolved H alpha kinematics

Hakim Atek

We present integral field spectroscopic observations with the Potsdam Multi-Aperture Spectrophotometer of all 14 galaxies in the z similar to 0.1 Lyman Alpha Reference Sample (LARS). We produce 2D line-of-sight velocity maps and velocity dispersion maps fr ...

Effect of geometry modifications on the engulfment in micromixers: Numerical simulations and stability analysis

Andrea Fani, Lorenzo Siconolfi

The effect of geometry variations on the engulfment regime in micromixers is investigated. The engulfment regime is a steady flow regime resulting from a symmetry-breaking pitchfork bifurcation as the Reynolds number (based on the hydraulic diameter and bu ...

[C II] emission in z similar to 6 strongly lensed, star-forming galaxies

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement

The far-infrared fine-structure line [C II] at 1900.5 GHz is known to be one of the brightest cooling lines in local galaxies, and therefore it has been suggested to be an efficient tracer for star formation in very high redshift galaxies. However, recent ...

Deep optical spectroscopy of extended Ly alpha emission around three radio-quiet z=4.5 quasars

Frédéric Courbin, Pierre North, Alexander Patrick Eigenbrod

We report the first results of a spectroscopic search for Ly alpha envelopes around three z similar to 4.5 radio-quiet quasars. Our observational strategy adopts the FORS2 spectrograph mounted to the UT1 of the Very Large Telescope (VLT) in the multi-slit ...
