Looking for dark matter trails in colliding galaxy clusters

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey

If dark matter interacts, even weakly, via non-gravitational forces, simulations predict that it will be preferentially scattered towards the trailing edge of the halo during collisions between galaxy clusters. This will temporarily create a non-symmetric ...

Constraining the production of cosmic rays by pulsars

Mikhail Ivanov

One of the possible sources of hadronic cosmic rays (CRs) are newborn pulsars. If this is indeed the case, they should feature diffusive gamma-ray halos produced by interactions of CRs with interstellar gas. In this paper we try to identify extended gamma- ...

Network-timing-dependent plasticity

Henry Markram, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Daniel Keller, Vincent Delattre

Bursts of activity in networks of neurons are thought to convey salient information and drive synaptic plasticity. Here we report that network bursts also exert a profound effect on Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity (STDP). In acute slices of juvenile rat ...

FIRST NuSTAR OBSERVATIONS OF MRK 501 WITHIN A RADIO TO TeV MULTI-INSTRUMENT CAMPAIGN

Xin Chen, Thomas Günther Bretz

We report on simultaneous broadband observations of the TeV-emitting blazar Markarian 501 between 2013 April 1 and August 10, including the first detailed characterization of the synchrotron peak with Swift and NuSTAR. During the campaign, the nearby BL La ...

Suprathermal electron dynamics and MHD instabilities in a tokamak

Stefano Coda, Jonathan Graves, Joan Decker, Josef Kamleitner

The dynamics of suprathermal electrons in the presence of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) activity and the excitation of MHD modes by suprathermal electrons are studied experimentally to improve the understanding of the interaction of fast particles with MHD in ...

Instrument intercomparison in the pulsed neutron fieldsat the CERN HiRadMat facility

Nikolaos Charitonidis

An intercomparison of the performances of active neutron detectors was carried out in pulsed neutron fields in the new HiRadMat facility at CERN. Five detectors were employed: four of them (two ionization chambers and two rem counters) are routinely employ ...

Hubble Space Telescope Grism Spectroscopy Of Extreme Starbursts Across Cosmic Time: The Role Of Dwarf Galaxies In The Star Formation History Of The Universe

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek

Near infrared slitless spectroscopy with the Wide Field Camera 3, on board the Hubble Space Telescope, offers a unique opportunity to study low-mass galaxy populations at high redshift (z similar to 1-2). While most high-z surveys are biased toward massive ...

Loading and release of internally self-assembled emulsions embedded in a magnetic hydrogel

László Forró, Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Katarzyna Pierzchala

We have investigated drug loading and release from thermosensitive gel emulsions with external triggering by an alternating magnetic field (AMF) for on-demand drug delivery. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles dispersed in gel emulsions were used to ...

Star formation histories, extinction, and dust properties of strongly lensed z similar to 1.5-3 star-forming galaxies from the Herschel Lensing Survey

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib

Context. Multi-wavelength, optical to IR/submm observations of strongly lensed galaxies identified by the Herschel Lensing Survey are used to determine the physical properties of high-redshift star-forming galaxies close to or below the detection limits of ...
