The infrared-radio correlation of star-forming galaxies is strongly M-star-dependent but nearly redshift-invariant since z similar to 4

Salim Bennouna, Shan Jin, Mark Thomas Sargent

Over the past decade, several works have used the ratio between total (rest 8-1000 mu m) infrared and radio (rest 1.4 GHz) luminosity in star-forming galaxies (q(IR)), often referred to as the infrared-radio correlation (IRRC), to calibrate the radio emiss ...

Forcing the "lazy" protons to work

Jayasubba Reddy Yarava

The combination of cross-polarization (CP) with flip-back (FB) pulse has enabled in NMR the enhancement of C-13 sensitivity and the decrease of the recycling delay at both moderate and fast magic-angle spinning (MAS) frequencies. However, only continuous-w ...

Dissipation as a resource in circuit quantum electromechanics

László Dániel Tóth

A primary challenge in quantum science and technology is to isolate the fragile quantum states from their environment in order to prevent the irreversible leakage of energy and information which causes decoherence. In the late 1990s, however, a new paradig ...

Beamforming-deconvolution: A novel concept of deconvolution for ultrasound imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Yves Wiaux, Adrien Georges Jean Besson

In ultrasound (US) imaging, beamforming is usually separated from the deconvolution or some other post-processing techniques. The former processes raw data to build radio-frequency (RF) images while the latter restore high-resolution images, denoted as tis ...
