Time-reversed electromagnetic fields in anisotropic media

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Elias Per Joachim Le Boudec

Electromagnetic time reversal is commonly used for field imaging and focusing. This Letter builds upon the concept of the time -reversal cavity, which constitutes the main theoretical framework of time reversal theory. We study the behavior of the fields u ...

Imaging magnetic spiral phases, skyrmion clusters, and skyrmion displacements at the surface of bulk Cu2OSeO3

Arnaud Magrez

Surfaces – by breaking bulk symmetries, introducing roughness, or hosting defects – can significantly influence magnetic order in magnetic materials. Determining their effect on the complex nanometer-scale phases present in certain non-centrosymmetric magn ...

Search for supersymmetry in final states with disappearing tracks in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV

Jan Steggemann, Konstantin Androsov, Anna Mascellani, Joanna Malgorzata Wanczyk

A search is presented for charged, long-lived supersymmetric particles in final states with one or more disappearing tracks. The search is based on data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected with the CMS detector at t ...

Understanding snow saltation parameterizations: lessons from theory, experiments and numerical simulations

Michael Lehning, Armin Sigmund, Daniela Brito Melo

Drifting and blowing snow are important features in polar and high mountain regions. They control the surface mass balance in windy conditions and influence sublimation of snow and ice surfaces. Despite their importance, model representations in weather an ...

CRYOWRF—Model Evaluation and the Effect of Blowing Snow on the Antarctic Surface Mass Balance

Michael Lehning, Varun Sharma, Franziska Gerber

The surface mass balance (SMB) of large polar ice sheets and of snow and ice surfaces in general are incompletely understood because of the complexity of processes involved. One such process, drifting and blowing snow, has only been considered in a very si ...

Blue ice in Antarctica: The gateway to travel in time and space

Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger

Antarctica has unique areas that expose blue ice, which contrast to most of the continent (~98%) that is covered by snow. Some of these blue ice areas (BIAs) contain meteorite concentrations and (very) old ice, making them very valuable for understanding o ...

Spatio-Temporal Dynamics of Snow on Central Arctic Sea Ice and its Implications

David Nicholas Wagner

This thesis presents a comprehensive investigation of the interaction between precipitation and wind-induced erosion and deposition of snow on Arctic sea ice. The study uses observations from the 2019-2020 MOSAiC expedition and makes use of the 3D snow cov ...

Reconstruction of decays to merged photons using end-to-end deep learning with domain continuation in the CMS detector

Jian Wang, Matthias Finger, Qian Wang, Yiming Li, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Varun Sharma, Yi Zhang, Lei Zhang, Tian Cheng, Yixing Chen, Alexis Kalogeropoulos, Ioannis Papadopoulos, Hua Zhang, Siyuan Wang, Jessica Prisciandaro, Xin Chen, Michele Bianco, Sebastiana Gianì, Sun Hee Kim, Davide Di Croce, Guido Andreassi, Arvind Shah, Jian Zhao, Rakesh Chawla, Jan Steggemann, Konstantin Androsov, Federica Legger, Gabriele Grosso

A novel technique based on machine learning is introduced to reconstruct the decays of highly Lorentz boosted particles. Using an end-to-end deep learning strategy, the technique bypasses existing rule-based particle reconstruction methods typically used i ...

The role of secondary ice production in mixed-phase clouds

Paraskevi Georgakaki

Clouds are omnipresent in the Earth's atmosphere. Their phase composition significantly modulates their interaction with solar and terrestrial radiation, as well as precipitation formation. Particularly for clouds containing both phases, known as mixed-pha ...

Polar oceans and sea ice in a changing climate

Julia Schmale, Hélène Paule Angot

Polar oceans and sea ice cover 15% of the Earth’s ocean surface, and the environment is changing rapidly at both poles. Improving knowledge on the interactions between the atmospheric and oceanic realms in the polar regions, a Surface Ocean–Lower Atmospher ...

Near-bed stratification controls bottom hypoxia in ice-covered alpine lakes

Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Janine Rüegg, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier, Tomy Doda, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Pascal Perolo

In ice-covered lakes, near-bottom oxygen concentration decreases for most of the wintertime, sometimes down to the point that bottom waters become hypoxic. Studies insofar have reached divergent conclusions on whether climate change limits or reinforces th ...

A full year of aerosol size distribution data from the central Arctic under an extreme positive Arctic Oscillation: insights from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada, Jakob Boyd Pernov, Benjamin Jérémy Laurent Heutte

The Arctic environment is rapidly changing due to accelerated warming in the region. The warming trend is driving a decline in sea ice extent, which thereby enhances feedback loops in the surface energy budget in the Arctic. Arctic aerosols play an importa ...

Physicochemical characterization and source apportionment of Arctic ice-nucleating particles observed in Ny-Alesund in autumn 2019

Athanasios Nenes, Ghislain Gilles Jean-Michel Motos

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) initiate primary ice formation in Arctic mixed-phase clouds (MPCs), altering cloud radiative properties and modulating precipitation. For atmospheric INPs, the complexity of their spatiotemporal variations, heterogeneous sou ...

Structure of pressure-gradient-driven current singularity in ideal magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium

Joaquim Loizu Cisquella

Singular currents typically appear on rational surfaces in non-axisymmetric ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibria with a continuum of nested flux surfaces and a continuous rotational transition. These currents have two components: a surface current (D ...

Magnetic excitations in the topological semimetal YbMnSb2

Possible restoration of particle-hole symmetry in the 5/2-quantized Hall state at small magnetic field

Frédéric Mila, Loïc Jean Pierre Herviou

Motivated by the experimental observation of a quantized 5/2 thermal conductance at filling nu = 5/2, a result incompatible with both the Pfaffian and the anti-Pfaffian states, we have pushed the expansion of the effective Hamiltonian of the 5/2-quantized ...

Snow transport in extreme environments: from small to large scale modeling

Annual cycle observations of aerosols capable of ice formation in central Arctic clouds

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck

The Arctic is warming faster than anywhere else on Earth, prompting glacial melt, permafrost thaw, and sea ice decline. These severe consequences induce feedbacks that contribute to amplified warming, affecting weather and climate globally. Aerosols and cl ...
