Mid Infrared Spectro-Photometric Monitoring of V4334 Sagittarii (aka Sakurai’s Object)
V4334 Sgr is a star which underwent a very late Helium shell flash in 1995 [1,2]. The last known similar event was V605Aql in 1919. V4334 Sgr has... -
Phoenix Spectra of Carbon Stars in the LMC
We present high-resolution, IR-spectra of Carbon stars in the LMC obtained with the Phoenix spectrometer on the Gemini South 8-meter telescope. This... -
Spectroscopy of the M Supergiant α Ori in the 1–2.5 μm Region
The study of elemental abundances in cool stars via atomic lines in the optical region is made di.cult by stellar molecular absorption. At infrared... -
Rotation of Young Very Low Mass Objects
We present our large sample of photometric rotation periods for VLM objects in young open clusters. Based on these periods, we investigate the mass... -
Magnetic Fields and Atmospheric Motions in Pulsating Stars
New series of high-precision longitudinal magnetic field measurements of RR Lyrae has been reported here, obtained with the MuSiCoS... -
Spectral Properties of Brown Dwarfs and Hot Jupiters
Brown dwarfs bridge the gap between the stellar and planetary mass regimes. Evolving from conditions very similar to the lowest-mass stars, the... -
Surface Imaging with Atomic and Molecular Features
I give here a report on the results obtained with a new Doppler imaging code which for the first time made it possible to perform the reconstruction... -
First Spectroscopic Observations of Low-Mass Companions to X-Ray Selected Main Sequence Late B-type Dwarfs with NIRSPEC at Keck II
Recently, using near infrared photometric observations with ADONIS+ SHARP II, we have detected 21 new IR objects around 49 X-ray selected late B-type... -
Momentum and Energy Relations
The equations of motion (5.12) for the charged insulating sphere of radius a moving with arbitrary center velocity u(t) can be rewritten in... -
Baryon Spectroscopy in Lattice QCD
We review recent developments in the study of excited baryon spectroscopy in lattice QCD. After introducing the basic methods used to extract masses... -
Hadron Properties with FLIC Fermions
The Fat-Link Irrelevant Clover (FLIC) fermion action provides a new form of nonperturbative O(a)-improvement in lattice fermion actions offering near... -
Semiconductor Few-Electron Quantum Dots as Spin Qubits
The spin of an electron placed in a magnetic field provides a natural two-level system suitable as a qubit in a quantum computer[1]. In this work, we... -
Desynchronization and Chaos in the Kuramoto Model
Abstract. The Kuramoto model of N globally coupled phase oscillators is an essentially non-linear dynamical system with a rich dynamical behavior and... -
Spatially Extended Monotone Map**s
This chapter deals with the study of travelling waves in discrete time spatially extended systems with monotone dynamics. Such systems appear for... -
Magnetic Confinement
This chapter describes the basic principles of magnetic confinement. The main representatives of magnetic confinement are the mirror machine, the... -
Euclidean Quantum Field Theory on Commutative and Noncommutative Spaces
I give an introduction to Euclidean quantum field theory from the point of view of statistical physics, with emphasis both on Feynman graphs and on... -
Optimal Control of Stochastic Processes
Many control problems appearing for complex systems are subject to imperfectly known disturbances. As we have learned in the previous chapter, these... -
Dumbbell Model for Dilute and Semi-Dilute Solutions
Dumbbell models are very crude representations of polymer molecules. Too crude to be of much interest to a polymer chemist, since it in no way... -
Ion Microscopy on Diamond
Because of its physical properties (strong radiation hardness, wide energy gap with a consequent extremely low dark current, very large electron and... -
Raman Spectroscopy and Optical Properties of Amorphous Diamond-Like Carbon Films
The Raman spectroscopy and optical characterization of amorphous hydrogen-free diamond-like carbon films is described. The samples were prepared by...
