The Pristine survey IX. CFHT ESPaDOnS spectroscopic analysis of 115 bright metal-poor candidate stars

A chemo-dynamical analysis of 115 metal-poor candidate stars selected from the narrow band Pristine photometric survey is presented based on CFHT high-resolution ESPaDOnS spectroscopy, We have discovered 28 new bright (V < 15) stars with I Fe/H]

Activity induced synchronization: Mutual flocking and chiral self-sorting

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

Synchronization, the temporal coordination of coupled oscillators, allows fireflies to flash in unison, neurons to fire collectively, and human crowds to fall in step on the London millenium bridge. Here, we interpret active (or self-propelled) chiral micr ...

Multimode microwave circuit optomechanics as a platform to study coupled quantum harmonic oscillators

Nathan Rafaël Bernier

Harmonic oscillators might be one of the most fundamental entities described by physics. Yet they stay relevant in recent research. The topological properties associated with exceptional points that can occur when two modes interact have generated much int ...

Resistive Coupled VO2 Oscillators for Image Recognition

Igor Stolichnov, Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Kirsten Emilie Moselund, Elisabetta Corti, Siegfried Karg

Oscillator networks are known for their interesting collective behavior such as frequency locking, phase locking, and synchronization. Compared to other artificial neural network implementations, timing rather than amplitude information is used for computa ...

Optical backaction-evading measurement of a mechanical oscillator

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

Quantum mechanics imposes a limit on the precision of a continuous position measurement of a harmonic oscillator, due to backaction arising from quantum fluctuations in the measurement field. This standard quantum limit can be surpassed by monitoring only ...

Structural Properties Of Dendrite Groups

Nicolas Monod

Let G be the homeomorphism group of a dendrite. We study the normal subgroups of G. For instance, there are uncountably many nonisomorphic such groups G that are simple groups. Moreover, these groups can be chosen so that any isometric G-action on any metr ...

Kerr Comb-based Transfer Oscillator for Ultralow Noise Photonic Microwave Synthesis

Tobias Kippenberg, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas

We perform optical frequency division of an ultra-stable laser by using a crystalline-based Kerr frequency comb as a transfer oscillator. We demonstrate absolute phase noise levels of -110 dBc/Hz at 200-Hz offset from a 14 GHz carrier. (C) 2019 The Author( ...

Theory and design of spherical oscillator mechanisms

Simon Nessim Henein, Nicolas Ferrier, Roland Andreas Bitterli, Billy Nussbaumer, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan, Ilan Vardi, Lennart Rubbert

In previous work, we showed that two degree of freedom oscillators can be advantageously applied to horological time bases since they can be used to eliminate the escapement mechanism. We subsequently examined planar two degree of freedom oscillators based ...

Backaction-evading measurement of mechanical motion in the optical domain

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

When measuring the position of a mechanical oscillator, quantum mechanics imposes a strict limit on the attainable precision: Any reduction of imprecision leads to increased quantum backaction of the measuring probe on the oscillator. This quantum limit ca ...

Ultra-coherent nano-mechanical resonators for quantum optomechanics at room temperature

Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Mechanical oscillators are among the most important scientific tools in the modern physics. From the pioneering experiments in 18th by founding fathers of modern physics such as Newton, Hooke and Cavendish to the ground braking experiments in the 21th cent ...
