Two Massive, Compact, and Dust-obscured Candidate z ≃ 8 Galaxies Discovered by JWST

Michaela Hirschmann

We present a search for extremely red, dust-obscured, z > 7 galaxies with JWST/NIRCam+MIRI imaging over the first 20 arcmin(2) of publicly available Cycle 1 data from the COSMOS-Web, CEERS, and PRIMER surveys. Based on their red color in F277W-F444W (simil ...

Permeability sets the linear path instability of buoyancy-driven disks

François Gallaire, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

The prediction of trajectories of buoyancy-driven objects immersed in a viscous fluid is a key problem in fluid dynamics. Simple-shaped objects, such as disks, present a great variety of trajectories, ranging from zig-zag to tumbling and chaotic motions. Y ...

Design and Validation of a Compact Embedded Photometric Device for Real-time Daylighting Computing in Office Buildings

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

Studies have shown that the exposure to daylight can have substantial visual/non-visual benefits for building occupants. To optimise daylighting provision while maintaining a comfortable visual environment, daylighting control systems have been investigate ...

Exploring the Extent in the Visual Field of the Honeycomb and Extinction Illusions

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud

There are situations in which what is perceived in central vision is different to what is perceived in the periphery, even though the stimulus display is uniform. Here, we studied two cases, known as the Extinction illusion and the Honeycomb illusion, invo ...

Periodic cellular aluminum structures for space applications : from casting to additive manufacturing

Florian Thibaut Gallien

Mass is one of the crucial parameters for hardware that has to be placed in Earth orbit. Due to its harsh environment, a material with highest specific properties is desired to achieve space missions. The rise and development of new technologies, such as a ...

Accretion Disk Size Measurement and Time Delays in the Lensed Quasar WFI 2033-4723

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin

We present 13 seasons of R-band photometry of the quadruply lensed quasarWFI 2033-4723 from the 1.3m SMARTS telescope at CTIO and the 1.2m Euler Swiss Telescope at La Silla, in which we detect microlensing variability of similar to 0.2mag on a timescale of ...

A large planetary body inferred from diamond inclusions in a ureilite meteorite

Cécile Hébert, Emad Oveisi, Marco Cantoni, Philippe Gillet, James Badro, Farhang Nabiei, Teresa Katharina Dennenwaldt

Planetary formation models show that terrestrial planets are formed by the accretion of tens of Moon-to Mars-sized planetary embryos through energetic giant impacts. However, relics of these large proto-planets are yet to be found. Ureilites are one of the ...

Structure of Herbig AeBe Disks at the milliarcsecond Scale—A Statistical Survey in the H Band Using PIONIER-VLTI

Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez

Context. It is now generally accepted that the near-infrared excess of Herbig AeBe stars originates in the dust of a circumstellar disk. Aims. The aims of this article are to infer the radial and vertical structure of these disks at scales of order 1 au, a ...

How many factors are there in vision?

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Aline Françoise Cretenoud

Common factors are ubiquitous in cognition, audition, and somato-sensation. Surprisingly, there seems to be no common factor in vision, i.e., visual tasks correlate very weakly with each other. Here, we show that there are likely many very specific factors ...

A Disk Asymmetry in Motion Around the B[e] Star MWC158

Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez

Context. MWC158 is a star with the B[e] phenomenon that shows strong spectrophotometric variability (in lines and in UV and visible continuum) attributed to phases of shell ejection. The evolutionary stage of this star was never clearly determined. Previou ...

The visible perimeter of an arrangement of disks

János Pach, Gabriel Nivasch

Given a collection of n opaque unit disks in the plane, we want to find a stacking order for them that maximizes their visible perimeter, the total length of all pieces of their boundaries visible from above. We prove that if the centers of the disks form ...

Silicon isotopes in angrites and volatile loss in planetesimals

James Badro

Inner solar system bodies, including the Earth, Moon, and asteroids, are depleted in volatile elements relative to chondrites. Hypotheses for this volatile element depletion include condensation from the solar nebula and volatile loss during energetic impa ...

Resolving The Stellar Outskirts Of M81: Evidence For A Faint, Extended Structural Component

Pascale Jablonka

We present a wide field census of resolved stellar populations in the northern half of M81, conducted with Suprime-Cam on the 8 m Subaru telescope and covering an area similar to 0.3 deg(2). The resulting color-magnitude diagram reaches over one magnitude ...

Simultaneous estimation of time delays and quasar structure

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Christel Vuissoz

We expand our Bayesian Monte Carlo method for analyzing the light curves of gravitationally lensed quasars to simultaneously estimate time delays and the sizes of quasar continuum emission regions including their mutual uncertainties. We apply the method t ...
