Complete convergence theorem for a two-level contact process [PDF]
ALEA, Lat. Am. J. Probab. Math. Stat. 19, 943-955 (2022), 2019 We study a two-level contact process. We think of fleas living on a species of animals. The animals are a supercritical contact process in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The contact process acts as the random environment for the fleas. The fleas do not affect the animals, give birth at rate $\mu$ when they are living on a host animal, and die at rate $\delta$ when ...

The Diverse Roles of the Global Transcriptional Regulator PhoP in the Lifecycle of Yersinia pestis
Pathogens, 2020 Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of plague, has a complex infectious cycle that alternates between mammalian hosts (rodents and humans) and insect vectors (fleas). Consequently, it must adapt to a wide range of host environments to achieve successful

Stability of the fundamental quasinormal mode in time-domain observations against small perturbations [PDF]
Phys. Rev. D 106, 084036 (2022), 2022 Black hole spectroscopy with gravitational waves is an important tool to measure the mass and spin of astrophysical black holes and to test their Kerr nature. Next-generation ground- and space-based detectors will observe binary black hole mergers with large signal-to-noise ratios and perform spectroscopy routinely.

Hyperspectral Nanomotion Microscopy [PDF]
Nanoscale Advances, 3(8), 2213-2216 (2021), 2020 We have developed a technique that extends static scanning electron microscopic imaging to include hyperspectral mapping of fast thermal and externally-driven movements at up to Megahertz frequencies. It is based on spectral analysis of the secondary electron flux generated by a focused electron beam incident on the moving object.
