Gyrokinetic simulations of turbulence in magnetic fusion plasmas using a delta-f PIC scheme with evolving background

Moahan Murugappan

Using the GKEngine code which simulates an electrostatic plasma with adiabatic electron response under a sheared-slab geometry, an attempt at developing a hybrid approach between the delta-f and full-f schemes to describe plasma profiles exhibiting high fl ...

The arrow-of-time in neuroimaging time series identifies causal triggers of brain function

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Enrico Amico, Raphaël Pierre Liégeois

Moving from association to causal analysis of neuroimaging data is crucial to advance our understanding of brain function. The arrow-of-time (AoT), that is, the known asymmetric nature of the passage of time, is the bedrock of causal structures shaping phy ...

COSMOGRAIL: XIX. Time delays in 18 strongly lensed quasars from 15 years of optical monitoring star

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin, Malte Tewes, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Rémy Elie Joseph, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Olga Tihhonova

We present the results of 15 years of monitoring lensed quasars, which was conducted by the COSMOGRAIL programme at the Leonhard Euler 1.2 m Swiss Telescope. The decade-long light curves of 23 lensed systems are presented for the first time. We complement ...

Raman spectroscopy and lattice dynamics calculations of tetragonally-structured single crystal zinc phosphide (Zn3P2) nanowires

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Jean-Baptiste Leran, Mahdi Zamani, Simon Robert Escobar Steinvall, Elias Zsolt Stutz, Rajrupa Paul, Mirjana Dimitrievska

Earth-abundant and low-cost semiconductors, such as zinc phosphide (Zn3P2), are promising candidates for the next generation photovoltaic applications. However, synthesis on commercially available substrates, which favors the formation of defects, and cont ...

Asymptotic dynamic for dipolar Quantum Gases below the ground state energy threshold

Luigi Forcella

We consider the Gross-Pitaevskii equation describing a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate without external confinement. We first consider the unstable regime, where the nonlocal nonlinearityis neither positive nor radially symmetric and standing states are k ...

A Nonlinear Adaptive Controller for Airborne Wind Energy Systems

Colin Neil Jones, Ioannis Lymperopoulos, Andrea Alessandretti, Sanket Sanjay Diwale

A nonlinear adaptive path following controller for a kite based airborne wind energy system is presented. For a given desired geometric path, we provide necessary conditions for closed-loop convergence of the kite to a tube centered around the desired path ...

Thermodynamics in the hydrologic response: Travel time formulation and application to Alpine catchments

Andrea Rinaldo, Michael Lehning, Bettina Schaefli, Francesco Comola

This paper presents a spatially-explicit model for hydro-thermal response simulations of Alpine catchments, accounting for advective and non-advective energy fluxes in stream networks characterized by arbitrary degrees of geomorphological complexity. The r ...

Response of the topological surface state to surface disorder in TlBiSe2

Jan Hugo Dil, Stefan Peter Muff

Through a combination of experimental techniques we show that the topmost layer of the topological insulator TlBiSe2 as prepared by cleavage is formed by irregularly shaped Tl islands at cryogenic temperatures and by mobile Tl atoms at room temperature. No ...

Semiclassical S-matrix for black holes

Sergey Sibiryakov

We propose a semiclassical method to calculate S-matrix elements for two-stage gravitational transitions involving matter collapse into a black hole and evaporation of the latter. The method consistently incorporates back-reaction of the collapsing and emi ...

Ideal knots and other packing problems of tubes

This thesis concerns optimal packing problems of tubes, or thick curves, where thickness is defined as follows. Three points on a closed space curve define a circle. Taking the infimum over all radii of pairwise-distinct point triples defines the thickness ...
