Stellar chemo-kinematics of the Cetus dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

Context. The great majority of early-type dwarf galaxies, in the Local Group as well as in other galaxy groups, are found in the vicinity of much larger galaxies, making it hard to disentangle the role of internal versus external effects in driving their e ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: dynamics of ionized and neutral gas in the Lagoon nebula (M 8)

Carmela Lardo

Aims. We present a spectroscopic study of the dynamics of the ionized and neutral gas throughout the Lagoon nebula (M 8), using VLT-FLAMES data from the Gaia-ESO Survey. The new data permit exploration of the physical connections between the nebular gas an ...

Observations of Sagittarius A* during the pericenter passage of the G2 object with MAGIC

Thomas Günther Bretz

Context. We present the results of a multi-year monitoring campaign of the Galactic center (GC) with the MAGIC telescopes. These observations were primarily motivated by reports that a putative gas cloud (G2) would be passing in close proximity to the supe ...

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 ...

The Agora High-Resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. Ii. Isolated Disk Test

Yves Revaz

Using an isolated Milky Way-mass galaxy simulation, we compare results from nine state-of-the-art gravitohydrodynamics codes widely used in the numerical community. We utilize the infrastructure we have built for the AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulation ...

Thermal-hydraulic modeling of a novel HTS CICC for nuclear fusion applications

Pierluigi Bruzzone

A thermal-hydraulic model has been developed for the novel cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) recently proposed by ENEA, which foresees the use of 2nd Generation REBCO-based Coated Conductor tapes stacked into twisted grooves slotted into an Al core. A cent ...

Backward diodes using heavily Mg-doped GaN growth by ammonia molecular-beam epitaxy

Nicolas Grandjean, Denis Martin, Marco Malinverni

We grew heavily Mg-doped GaN using ammonia molecular-beam epitaxy. The use of low growth temperature (740 degrees C) allows decreasing the incorporation of donor-like defects (

Satellite galaxies in semi-analytic models of galaxy formation with sterile neutrino dark matter

Alexey Boyarsky, Oleg Ruchayskiy

The sterile neutrino is a viable darkmatter candidate that can be produced in the early Universe via non-equilibrium processes, and would therefore possess a highly non-thermal spectrum of primordial velocities. In this paper we analyse the process of stru ...

The Smith Cloud and its dark matter halo: survival of a Galactic disc passage

Matthew Luke Nichols

Under conservative assumptions about the Galaxy, the derived velocity of the Smith Cloud indicates that it will have undergone at least one passage of the Galactic disc. Using hydrodynamic simulations, we examine the present-day structure of the Smith Clou ...

Lensed Type Ia supernovae as probes of cluster mass models

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek

Using three magnified Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) detected behind CLASH (Cluster Lensing and Supernovae with Hubble) clusters, we perform a first pilot study to see whether standardizable candles can be used to calibrate cluster mass maps created from stro ...

Microlensing of the broad line region in 17 lensed quasars

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

When an image of a strongly lensed quasar is microlensed, the different components of its spectrum are expected to be differentially magnified owing to the different sizes of the corresponding emitting region. Chromatic changes are expected to be observed ...
