Very High Energy Gamma-Rays from Binary Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This thesis presents a study of the very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from X-ray binary systems using the H.E.S.S. imaging atmospheric Cherenkov array.

The attenuation of atmospheric Cerenkov photons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Whilst the atmosphere places a limit on the successful applications of many branches of astronomy, it becomes an invaluable tool for the detection of very high energy γ-rays. This thesis is concerned with reducing the systematic uncertainties inherent to

Gallium Microalloying in Bi–Sn Solders: Interfacial Phase Formation, Wettability, and Long‐Term Shear Reliability Under Isothermal Aging

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Gallium microalloying redirects interfacial reactions in low‐temperature Bi–Sn solders from Cu–Sn toward Cu–Ga intermetallic formation. The resulting Cu–Ga layer suppresses intermetallic growth during thermal aging, alters fracture pathways, and improves interfacial stability.

Orbital Phase-resolved Analysis of X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Observations of the High-mass Gamma-Ray Binary 4FGL J1405.1−6119

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the results of multiwavelength observations of the high-mass gamma-ray binary (HMGB) 4FGL J1405.1−6119. A pair of joint XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations taken in 2019 (sampling the gamma-ray maximum and X-ray maximum) characterize the ...

Signals of the QCD Phase Transition in the Heavens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The modern phase diagram of strongly interacting matter reveals a rich structure at high-densities due to phase transitions related to the chiral symmetry of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and the phenomenon of color superconductivity.

Effects of Mg on Microstructure and Solidification of a Hypereutectic Zn–8 wt.%Al Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An appreciable set of results involving thermal data, microstructure, chemical composition, and microstructural growth laws is reported for ZnAlMg alloys. Such results demonstrate that ZnAlMg alloys have high potential for applications in automotive self‐lubricating components, batteries, and electrical systems.

X-Ray Polarimetry as a Tool to Constrain Orbital Parameters in X-Ray Binaries

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
X-ray binary systems consist of a companion star and a compact object in close orbit. Thanks to their copious X-ray emission, these objects have been studied in detail using X-ray spectroscopy and timing.

A search for TeV gamma ray emission from X-ray binary stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
This work is concerned with the detection of pulsed TeV gamma ray emission from a number of X-ray binary systems by the use of the atmospheric Cerenkov technique.

A high-mass X-ray binary descended from an ultra-stripped supernova

open access: yes, 2023
Ultra-stripped supernovae are different from other terminal explosions of massive stars, as they show little or no ejecta from the actual supernova event.
