Procyon A, a bright F5 IV-V Sun-like star, is justifiably regarded as a prime asteroseismological target. This star was repeatedly observed by MOST, a specialized microsatellite providing long-term, non-interrupted broadband photometry of…
A robust stellar initial mass function (IMF) is crucial in any studies related to star formation. However, the direct measurement of the stellar IMF is confined to the local universe, limited by the resolving power of telescopes. Recently,…
Forward particle production and correlation measurements at RHIC can probe low-$x$ gluons. The suppression observed in back-to-back forward $\pi^{0}$+forward $\pi^{0}$ correlations at STAR in central d+Au collisions at STAR is consistent…
In this report we discuss the capabilities and limitations of the STAR detector to search for signatures of the QCD critical point in a low energy scan at RHIC. We find that a RHIC low energy scan will cover a broad region of interest in…
Mechanical resonators operating in the high-frequency regime have become a versatile platform for fundamental and applied quantum research. Their exceptional properties, such as low mass and high quality factor, make them also very…
We summarize the latest correlation and fluctuation measurements derived from the RHIC Beam Energy Scan-II (BES-II) data, collected by the STAR experiment. We will focus on the recent results of higher-order net-proton cumulants…
The detection of long-lived radionuclides through ultra-sensitive single atom counting via accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) offers opportunities for precise measurements of neutron capture cross sections, e.g. for nuclear astrophysics.…
We propose that a significant positive deviation from 1/3 for the spin density matrix element $\rho_{00}$ of the $\phi$ meson may indicate the existence of a mean field of the $\phi$ meson generated in heavy-ion collisions. This explains…
The forward physics program of the CMS experiment at the LHC spans a broad range of diverse physics topics including studies of low-x QCD and diffractive scattering, multi-parton interactions and underlying event structure, gamma-mediated…
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) is a powerful pulsar detector, as demonstrated by the over one hundred objects in its second catalog of pulsars. Pass 8 is a new reconstruction and event selection strategy developed by the Fermi-LAT…
Recent demonstrations of ultracoherent nanomechanical resonators introduce the prospect of new protocols for solid state sensing applications. Here, we propose to use two coupled ultracoherent resonator modes on a Si$_3$N$_4$ membrane for…
Structured metallic tips are increasingly important for optical spectroscopies such as tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS), with plasmonic resonances frequently cited as a mechanism for electric field enhancement. We probe the local…
We present a tomographic cosmological weak lensing analysis of the HST COSMOS Survey. Applying our lensing-optimized data reduction, principal component interpolation for the ACS PSF, and improved modelling of charge-transfer inefficiency,…
The MONS space experiment will be able to verify some of the most important topics in the asteroseismologic studies of Delta Sct and Gamma Dor stars. We discuss how the $\gamma$ Doradus can be considered possible "bridges" between the…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) emit broad band radio wave radiation that may, in rare cases, encode atomic hydrogen (HI) absorption signals produced as they traverse the interstellar medium of their host galaxies. Combining such signals with high…
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) experiment has released new measurements of primary and secondary nuclei in cosmic rays at the TeV energy scale. Using these data, we present new results based on a global Bayesian analysis of our two…
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a new generation high-energy physics experiment installed on the International Space Station in May 2011 and operating continuously since then. Using an unprecedently large collection of particles…
With current and planned gravitational-wave (GW) observing runs, coincident multimessenger timing of Resonant Shattering Flares (RSFs) and GWs may soon allow for neutron star (NS) asteroseismology to be used to constrain the nuclear…
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrograph (AMS) is a composite particle detector to be accommodated on the International Space Station (ISS) in 2008. AMS is mainly devoted to galactic, charged Cosmic Rays studies, Antimatter and Dark Matter searches.…
