The spin polarization of Rb atoms undergoing light-induced desorption from a spin-polarized Co (110) surface was investigated. Desorption induced by pulsed UV-light irradiation was driven by a non-thermal mechanism and the spins of the…

We present X-ray spectral analysis of five Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of the gravitationally-lensed blazar PKS1830-211 from 2000 to 2004. We show that the X-ray absorption toward PKS1830-211 is variable, and the variable absorption…
