THE STELLAR DENSITY PROFILE OF THE DISTANT GALACTIC HALO [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We use extensive gravity-sensitive DDO 51 photometry over 5100 square degrees, combined with Sloan Digital Sky Survey broadband photometry, to select a catalog of ∼4000 giant stars covering a large fraction of the high Galactic latitude sky and reaching ...

Milli-magnetic monopole dark matter and the survival of galactic magnetic fields

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
Dark sectors with Abelian gauge symmetries can interact with ordinary matter via kinetic mixing. In such scenarios, magnetic monopoles of a broken dark U(1) will appear in our sector as confined milli-magnetically charged objects under ordinary ...

New detections of embedded clusters in the Galactic halo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Until recently it was thought that high Galactic latitude clouds were a non-star-forming ensemble. However, in a previous study we reported the discovery of two embedded clusters (ECs) far away from the Galactic plane ($\sim5$ kpc).

Observations of field and cluster RR Lyræ with Spitzer. Towards high precision distances with Population II stellar tracers

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
We present our project to calibrate the RR Lyræ period-luminosity-metallicity relation using a sample of Galactic calibrators in the halo and globular clusters.

Revisiting perfect fluid dark matter: Observational constraints from our galaxy

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2016
We revisit certain features of an assumed spherically symmetric perfect fluid dark matter halo in the light of the observed data of our galaxy, the Milky Way (MW). The idea is to apply the Faber–Visser approach of combined observations of rotation curves

Are ancient dwarf satellites the building blocks of the Galactic halo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
According to the current cosmological cold dark matter paradigm, the Galactic halo could have been the result of the assemblage of smaller structures. Here we explore the hypothesis that the classical and ultra-faint dwarf spheroidal satellites of the ...

Chemical trends in the Galactic halo from APOGEE data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The galaxy formation process in the $\Lambda$-Cold Dark Matter scenario can be constrained from the analysis of stars in the Milky Way's halo system.

Unique Performance Considerations for Printable Organic Semiconductor and Perovskite Radiation Detectors: Toward Consensus on Best Practice Evaluation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A lack of standard approaches for testing and reporting the performance of metal halide perovskites and organic semiconductor radiation detectors has resulted in inconsistent interpretation of performance parameters, impeding progress in the field. This Perspective recommends key metrics and experimental details, which are suggested for reporting in ...

Traversable wormholes supported by dark matter and monopoles with semiclassical effects

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
We present a new traversable wormhole explication of Einstein’s field equations supported by the profile of Einasto Dark Matter densities (Einasto in Trudy Inst Astrofiz Alma-Ata 51:87, 1965; PTarO 36:414, 1968; Astron Nachr 291:97, 1969) and global ...

Non Thermal‐Driven Photocatalytic Ammonia Decomposition at Near‐Room Temperature on a Plasmonic Nanocone Array

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Plasmonic photocatalytic ammonia decomposition occurs at near‐room temperature on a plasmonic Au nanocone array under visible light illumination. The nanostructure efficiently harnesses plasmonic modes, leading to increased reaction rates upon plasmon decay.
