AutoCal: A software application for calibrating photometric data
We present a software application for the calibration of stellar magnitudes in the absence of standard stars. It uses an existing algorithm to match stars in the target’s field of view to catalogue entries and computes the average offset between the two ...

Direct Reactions with Exotic Nuclei, Nuclear Structure and Astrophysics [PDF]
Intermediate energy Coulomb excitation and dissociation is a useful tool for nuclear structure and astrophysics studies. Low-lying strength in nuclei far from stability was discovered by this method.

Testing Noncommutativity-Like Model as a Galactic Density Profile
Noncommutative-like model (NC-like) is an interesting alternative inspired by string theory to understand and describe the velocity rotation curves of galaxies without the inclusion of dark matter particles.

Visualization in astrophysics [PDF]
This paper reports on progress we have made in modelling cosmic X·ray sources on supercomputers. The results we present are meant to serve as an example for the fact that sophisticated visualization techniques play a crucial role in scientific computing.

Towards the first plasma-electron screening experiment
The enhancement of fusion reaction rates in a thermonuclear plasma by electron screening of the Coulomb barrier is an important plasma-nuclear effect that is present in stellar models but has not been experimentally observed.

Similarity Properties and Scaling Laws of Radiation Hydrodynamic Flows in Laboratory Astrophysics [PDF]
The spectacular recent development of modern high-energy density laboratory facilities which concentrate more and more energy in millimetric volumes allows the astrophysical community to reproduce and to explore, in millimeter-scale targets and during ...
