Integration of Particle-Gas Systems with Stiff Mutual Drag Interaction...

Numerical simulation of numerous mm/cm-sized particles embedded in a gaseous disk has become an important tool in the study of planet formation and in understanding the dust distribution in observed...

A New Concept for Spectro-photometry of Exoplanets with Space-based...

We propose a new concept for spectral characterization of transiting exoplanets with future space-based telescopes. This concept, called as densified pupil spectroscopy, allows us to perform high,...

Localisation of directional scale-discretised wavelets on the sphere...

Scale-discretised wavelets yield a directional wavelet framework on the sphere where a signal can be probed not only in scale and position but also in orientation. Furthermore, a signal can be...

A Roadmap to Interstellar Flight

In the nearly 60 years of spaceflight we have accomplished wonderful feats of exploration that have shown the incredible spirit of the human drive to explore and understand our universe. Yet in those...

Supervised Ensemble Classification of Kepler Variable Stars

Variable star analysis and classification is an important task in the understanding of stellar features and processes. While historically classifications have been done manually by highly skilled...

Fine detrending of raw Kepler and MOST photometric data of KIC 6950556 and HD...

We present a simple phenomenological method for detrending of raw Kepler and MOST photometry, which is illustrated by means of photometric data processing of two periodically variable chemically...

Detectability of galactic supernova neutrinos coherently scattered on xenon...

The coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) plays a crucial role at the final evolution of stars. The detection of it would be of importance in astroparticle physics. Among all available...

The probability distribution functions of emission line flux measurements and...

Many physical parameters in astrophysics are derived using the ratios of two observed quantities. If the relative uncertainties on measurements are small enough, uncertainties can be propagated...

Capabilities of Earth-based radar facilities for near-Earth asteroid...

We evaluated the planetary radar capabilities at Arecibo, the Goldstone 70 m DSS-14 and 34-m DSS-13 antennas, the 70-m DSS-43 antenna at Canberra, the Green Bank Telescope, and the Parkes Radio...

Photo-z Estimation: An Example of Nonparametric Conditional Density...

Redshift is a key quantity for inferring cosmological model parameters. In photometric redshift estimation, cosmologists use the coarse data collected from the vast majority of galaxies to predict the...

Statistical properties of Fourier-based time-lag estimates

Context: The study of X-ray time-lag spectra in AGN is currently an active research area, as it has the potential to illuminate the physics and geometry of the innermost region (i.e. close to the...

CD-HPF: New Habitability Score Via Data Analytic Modeling

The search for life on the planets outside the Solar System can be broadly classified into the following: looking for Earth-like conditions or the planets similar to the Earth (Earth similarity), and...

The adaptive-loop-gain adaptive-scale CLEAN deconvolution of radio...

CLEAN algorithms are a class of deconvolution solvers which are widely used to remove the effect of the telescope Point Spread Function (PSF). Loop gain is one important parameter in CLEAN algorithms....

Deriving the extinction to young stellar objects using [FeII] near-infrared...

The near-infrared emission lines of Fe$^{+}$ at 1.257, 1.321, and 1.644 $\mu$m share the same upper level; their ratios can then be exploited to derive the extinction to a line emitting region once the...

High-resolution, high-sensitivity, ground-based solar spectropolarimetry with...

Context. Remote sensing of weak and small-scale solar magnetic fields is of utmost relevance for a number of important open questions in solar physics. This requires the acquisition of...

Distributed State Machine Supervision for Long-baseline Gravitational-wave...

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) consists of two identical yet independent, widely-spaced, long-baseline gravitational-wave detectors. Each LIGO detector consists of a...

High precision radial velocities with GIANO spectra

Radial velocities (RV) measured from near-infrared (NIR) spectra are a potentially excellent tool to search for extrasolar planets around cool or active stars. High resolution infrared (IR)...
