We propose here that for a spin-imbalanced two-component attractive Fermi gas loaded in a 1D optical lattice in presence of an harmonic confining potential, the observation of the change in the double occupancy after a lattice depth…
The study of RR Lyrae stars has recently been invigorated thanks to the long, uninterrupted, ultra-precise time series data provided by the Kepler and CoRoT space telescopes. We give a brief overview of the new observational findings…
The effect of temporal modulation on traveling waves in the flows in two distinct systems of rotating cylinders, both with broken azimuthal symmetry, has been investigated. It is shown that by modulating the control parameter at twice the…
A systematic study of RR Lyrae stars is performed based on a selected sample of 655 objects in the Large Magellanic Cloud with observation of long span and numerous measurements by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment III project.…
The waveform for Blazhko stars can be substantially different during the ascending and descending parts of the Blazhko cycle. A hybrid model, consisting of two component oscillators of the same frequency, is proposed as a means to fit the…
The number of stars observed by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) project in the Galactic bulge offers an invaluable chance to study RR Lyrae stars in a statistical manner. We used data of 3141 fundamental-mode RR Lyrae…
Observations of Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud, made over the last several decades, allow us to search for evolutionary period changes. None of the Cepheid from our sample of 378 stars stopped pulsating. Also none of them showed a…
The amplitude and phase of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations have been analyzed in detail for two-dimensional electron gases subjected to a weak unidirectional periodic potential modulation. The amplitude is suppressed, accompanied by…
The recent results (Pardo & Poretti 1997, A&A 324, 121; Poretti & Pardo 1997, A&A 324, 133) obtained on the frequency content of Double-Mode Cepheids light curves and the properties of their Fourier parameters are reviewed. Some points…
Proposing an optomechanical cavity modulated periodically, we study the modulation synchronization of mechanical modes of the mirrors. A periodic modulation is applied to one of the mirrors, where the second mirror has the capability of…
We present the analysis of the multicolour CCD observations in the 2010 season of the Blazhko RRc star TV Boo. TV Boo shows a complex Blazhko modulation dominated by two independent modulations with P_{fm1}=9.74 d and P_{fm2}=21.43 d long…
Analysis of the time series obtained with the O-Mode reflectometer (Rhodes et al 1997 Plasma Phys. and Control. Fusion 40 (1998) 493-510) and the gas puff imaging (Cziegler, I. et al 2010 Phys. of Plasmas 17, No. 5 (2010) 056120) systems on…
We report the detection of pulse-to-pulse periodic intensity modulations, in observations of recycled pulsars. Even though the detection of individual pulses was generally not possible due to their low flux density and short duration,…
Although the driving mechanism acting in beta Cephei pulsators is well known (e.g. Dziembowski & Pamyatnykh 1993), problems concerning identification of amplitude limitation mechanism and non-uniform filling of the theoretical instability…
A new, extended time-series photometry of M3 RR Lyrae stars has revealed that four of the ten double-mode stars show large-amplitude Blazhko modulation of both radial modes. The first, detailed analysis of the peculiar behavior of the…
With increasingly accurate data on RR Lyrae stars we find that the Blazhko effect may be a rule rather than an exception. However, we still do not know what is the cause of this mysterious amplitude and phase modulation. In my talk, I…
Thanks to the space missions CoRoT and Kepler new oscillation frequencies have been discovered in the Fourier spectra of Blazhko RR Lyrae stars. The period doubling (PD) yields half-integer frequencies between the fundamental mode and its…
We report on new electromagnetic modes in space-time modulated dispersion-engineered media. These modes exhibit unusual dispersion relation, field profile and scattering properties. They are generated by coupled codirectional space-time…
Using new techniques based on the polarimetric fluctuation spectrum, the fluctuation behaviour of the polarization of individual pulses is examined in three pulsars that show drifting subpulses, allowing various aspects of the fluctuations…
A statistical model is used to determine how stochastic fluctuations in the intensities of orthogonal polarization modes contribute to the modulation and depolarization of pulsar radio emission. General expressions for the distributions of…
