The promise of multi-band gravitational wave astronomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We show that the black hole binary (BHB) coalescence rates inferred from the advanced LIGO (aLIGO) detection of GW150914 imply an unexpectedly loud GW sky at milli-Hz frequencies accessible to the evolving Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (eLISA), with

On the verge of an astronomy CubeSat revolution [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2018
CubeSats are small satellites built in standard sizes and form factors, which have been growing in popularity but have thus far been largely ignored within the field of astronomy.

Astronomy and astrology [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractAstrology meets a large success in our societies, from the private to the political sphere as well as in the media, in spite of the demonstrated inaccuracy of its psychological as well as operational predictions. We analyse here the relations between astrology and astronomy, as well as the criticisms opposed by the latter to the former. We show

Lasers in astronomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This chapter addresses the problem astronomers are facing when using adap- tive optics: there are not enough bright stars in the sky. In summary, the spatial resolution at the focus of astronomical telescopes is limited by the poor optical quality of Earth's atmosphere.

Universal Superconductivity in FeTe and All‐Iron‐Based Ferromagnetic Superconductor Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The first all‐iron‐based ferromagnetic superconductor heterostructures with high‐temperature superconductivity and strong ferromagnetism aredemonstrated. From this, it is discovered that FeTe becomes universallysuperconducting with a minute level of cationic impurities through doping ordiffusion from neighboring layers, suggesting its ground state can ...

Gravitational wave astronomy - astronomy of the 21st century [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An enigmatic prediction of Einstein's general theory of relativity is gravitational waves. With the observed decay in the orbit of the Hulse-Taylor binary pulsar agreeing within a fraction of a percent with the theoretically computed decay from Einstein ...

The imperative to reduce carbon emissions in astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2019
For astronomers to make a significant contribution to the reduction of climate change-inducing greenhouse gas emissions, we first must quantify the sources of our emissions and review the most effective approaches for reducing them. Here we estimate that

Unlocking High‐Performance in All‐Organic Solar Cells by the Development of Organic Electrodes with No Acid and High‐Temperature Treatment and the Effective Preparation Thereof on Organic Multilayer Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The developed all‐organic solar cells achieve a power conversion efficiency of 8.7%, more than double the previous record. In addition, bioplastic substrates are used to produce environmentally friendly solar cells with an efficiency of 8.6%. These results are achieved by developing high‐performance organic electrodes without acid doping or high ...
