A comparison of multi-phase magnetic field tracers in a high-galactic latitude region of the filamentary interstellar medium
(IOP Publishing, 2022)Understanding how the Galactic magnetic field threads the multiphase interstellar medium (ISM) remains a considerable challenge, as different magnetic field tracers probe dissimilar phases and field components. We search for ... -
Consequences of using a smooth cosmic distance in a lumpy Universe. I.
(American Physical Society, 2022)How do we appropriately fit a model based on an idealised Friedmann-Lemaˆıtre Robertson-Walker spacetime to observations made from a single location in a lumpy Universe? We address this question for surveys that measure ... -
Inferring halo masses with graph neural networks
(Institute of Physics, 2022)Understanding the halo–galaxy connection is fundamental in order to improve our knowledge on the nature and properties of dark matter. In this work, we build a model that infers the mass of a halo given the positions, ... -
The CAMELS multifield data set: Learning the universe’s fundamental parameters with artificial intelligence
(IOP, 2022)We present the Cosmology and Astrophysics with Machine Learning Simulations (CAMELS) Multifield Data set (CMD), a collection of hundreds of thousands of 2D maps and 3D grids containing many different properties of cosmic ... -
The Impact of Observing Strategy on Cosmological Constraints with LSST
(2022)The generation-defining Vera C. Rubin Observatory will make state-of-the-art measurements of both the static and transient universe through its Legacy Survey for Space and Time (LSST). With such capabilities, it is immensely ... -
Trapum discovery of 13 new pulsars in ngc 1851 using meerkat
(Hans Publishers, 2022)We report the discovery of 13 new pulsars in the globular cluster NGC 1851 by the TRAPUM Large Survey Project using the MeerKAT radio telescope. The discoveries consist of six isolated millisecond pulsars (MSPs) and seven ... -
Pulsar scintillation studies with LOFAR I. The census
(Hans Publishers, 2022)Interstellar scintillation (ISS) of pulsar emission can be used both as a probe of the ionized interstellar medium (IISM) and cause corruptions in pulsar timing experiments. Of particular interest are so-called scintillation ... -
F+ center exchange mechanism and magnetocrystalline anisotropy in Ni-doped 3C-SiC
(Elsivier, 2022)Towards the development of a magnetic semiconductor suitable for spintronic device applications in extreme environments, we explored the possibility of inducing magnetic interaction in SiC by doping Nickel. The X-ray ... -
Ground-based Ku-band microwave observations of ozone in the polar middle atmosphere
(Copernicus Publications, 2021)Ground-based observations of 11.072 GHz atmospheric ozone (O3) emission have been made using the NyÅlesund Ozone in the Mesosphere Instrument (NAOMI) at the UK Arctic Research Station (latitude 78 550000 N, longitude 11 ... -
Finding universal relations in Subhalo properties with artificial intelligence
(The Astrophysical Journal, 2022)We use a generic formalism designed to search for relations in high-dimensional spaces to determine if the total mass of a subhalo can be predicted from other internal properties such as velocity dispersion, radius, or ... -
The circumgalactic medium from the camels simulations: Forecasting constraints on feedback processes from future Sunyaev–Zeldovich observations
(IOP Publishing, 2022)It is important to understand the cycle of baryons through the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in the context of galaxy formation and evolution. In this study, we forecast constraints on the feedback processes heating the ... -
Spectroscopic and electrochemical exploration of carbon-infused intercalation-type spinel composite for aqueous systems
(Frontiers Media, 2022)Lithium-manganese-based compounds are promising intercalation host materials for aqueous battery systems due to their synergy with high ionic conductive aqueous electrolytes, safety, eco-friendliness, and low cost. Yet, ... -
The global magneto-ionic medium survey: polarimetry of the southern Sky from 300 to 480 MHz
(Ithaca: Cornell University Library, 2021)The Galactic interstellar medium hosts a significant magnetic field, which can be probed through the synchrotron emission produced from its interaction with relativistic electrons. Linearly polarized synchrotron emission ... -
Ceria-Spiderweb Nanosheets Unlock the Energy-Storage Properties in the “Sleeping” Triplite (Mn2(PO4)F)
(American Chemical Society, 2021)Rechargeable aqueous mobile-ion batteries (RAMIBs) are attractive next-generation battery technologies. Manganese fluorophosphate (triplite), Mn2(PO4)F (MFP), and its ceria- and carbon-coated composites (i.e., MFP-CeO2 and ... -
Breaking baryon-cosmology degeneracy with the electron density power spectrum
(IOP Publishing, 2022)Uncertain feedback processes in galaxies affect the distribution of matter, currently limiting the power of weak lensing surveys. If we can identify cosmological statistics that are robust against these uncertainties, or ... -
First Observations of E‐Region Near Range Echoes Partially Modulated by F‐Region Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances Observed by the Same SuperDARN HF Radar
(American Geophysical Union, 2022)We present the first observations from SuperDARN HF radar data of E‐region Near Range Echoes (NREs) whose amplitudes are partially modulated by Medium‐Scale Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances (MSTIDs) propagating in the ... -
Fine structure of the isovector giant dipole resonance in 142-150Nd and 152Sm
(American Physical Society, 2020)Background: Inelastic proton scattering at energies of a few hundred MeV and very-forward scattering angles including 0 ∘ has been established as a tool for the study of electric-dipole strength distributions in nuclei. ... -
A systematic survey for z < 0.04 CLAGNs
(Royal Astronomical Society, 2021)We have conducted a systematic survey for z < 0.04 active Galactic nuclei (AGNs) that may have changed spectral class over the past decade. We use SkyMapper, Pan-STARRS and the V´eron-Cetty & V´eron catalogue to search ... -
