Accurate wavelength calibration is critical for qualitative and quantitative spectroscopic measurements. Many spectrometers for planetary exploration are equipped with onboard calibration sources. However, such calibration sources are not…

In this paper, we consider spectral approximation of fractional differential equations (FDEs). A main ingredient of our approach is to define a new class of generalized Jacobi functions (GJFs), which is intrinsically related to fractional…

Accurate measurement of gravitational shear from images of distant galaxies is one of the most direct ways of studying the distribution of mass in the universe. We describe an implementation of a technique that is based on the shapelets…

The spectral resolving power R = lambda / delta lambda is a key property of any spectrograph, but its definition is vague because the `smallest resolvable wavelength difference' delta lambda does not have a consistent definition. Often the…

The noncommutative spectral action extends our familiar notion of commutative spaces, using the data encoded in a spectral triple on an almost commutative space. Varying a rather simple action, one can derive all of the standard model of…

Understanding the properties of the galactic emission at millimetre wavelengths is important for studies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In this work we explore the bispectrum, the harmonic equivalent of the three point function,…

We use the asymptotic expansion of the heat trace to express all residues of spectral zeta functions as regularized sums over the spectrum. The method extends to those spectral zeta functions that are localized by a bounded operator.

Whenever we have a group acting on a class of functions by translation, the bispectrum offers a principled and lossless way of representing such functions invariant to the action. Unfortunately, computing the bispectrum is often costly and…

We explore, in the general relativistic context, the properties of the recently introduced GPS coordinates, as well as those of the associated frames and coframes. We show that they are covariant, and completely independent of any observer.…

This proceeding is intended to be a first introduction to spectral methods. It is written around some simple problems that are solved explicitly and in details and that aim at demonstrating the power of those methods. The mathematical…

An algorithm is presented which generates pairs of oscillatory random time series which have identical periodograms but differ in the number of oscillations. This result indicate the intrinsic limitations of spectral methods when it comes…

Physical systems with symmetries are described by functions containing kinematical and dynamical parts. We consider the case when kinematical symmetries are described by a noncompact semisimple real Lie group $G$. Then separation of…

The amount of collected data in many scientific fields is increasing, all of them requiring a common task: extract knowledge from massive, multi parametric data sets, as rapidly and efficiently possible. This is especially true in astronomy…

The Herschel SPIRE Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) performs spectral imaging in the 447-1546 GHz band. It can observe in three spatial sampling modes: sparse mode, with a single pointing on sky, or intermediate or full modes with 1 and…

A general problem of $2\rightarrow N_f$ scattering is addressed with all the states being wave packets with arbitrary phases. Depending on these phases, one deals with coherent states in $(3+1)$ D, vortex particles with orbital angular…

Spectrometry is a general physical-analysis approach for investigating light-matter interactions. However, the complex designs of existing spectrometers render them resistant to simplification and miniaturization, both of which are vital…

By studying the spectral aspects of the fractional part function in a well-known separable Hilbert space, we show, among other things, a rational approximation of the Riemann zeta function and its derivatives valid on every vertical line in…

We discuss a Galaxy-wide coordinated signaling scheme with which a SETI observer needs to examine a tiny fraction of the sky. The target sky direction is determined as a function of time, based on high-precision measurements of a progenitor…

Most research on astrophysical lensing has been conducted using the geometric optics framework, where there exists a clear concept of lensing images. However, wave optics effects can be important for coherent sources, e.g. pulsars, fast…

We develop a general method for calculating statistical properties of the speckle pattern of coherent waves propagating in disordered media. In some aspects this method is similar to the Boltzmann-Langevin approach for the calculation of…
