Testing the Universality of the Stellar IMF with Chandra and HST [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The stellar initial mass function (IMF), which is often assumed to be universal across unresolved stellar populations, has recently been suggested to be "bottom-heavy" for massive ellipticals.

An advanced spatial coregistration of cloud properties for the atmospheric Sentinel missions: application to TROPOMI [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques
The retrieval of cloud parameters from the atmospheric Sentinel missions requires Earth reflectance measurements from a set of spectral bands. The ground pixels of the involved spectral bands should be fully aligned, but when they are not, special ...

The initial mass function of early-type galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We determine an absolute calibration of the initial mass function (IMF) of early-type galaxies, by studying a sample of 56 gravitational lenses identified by the SLACS Survey.

Probing the Concept of Statistical Independence of Intermediate-Mass Fragment Production in Heavy-Ion Collisions

open access: yes, 1998
It is found that the total IMF-transverse-energy (E_t) spectra in multi-IMF events are well represented by synthetic spectra obtained by folding of the single-IMF spectrum.

The low-mass Initial Mass Function in the young cluster NGC 6611 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
NGC 6611 is the massive young cluster (2-3 Myr) that ionises the Eagle Nebula. We present very deep photometric observations of the central region of NGC 6611 obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope and the following filters: ACS/WFC F775W and F850LP ...

Mass Functions in Fractal Clouds: The Role of Cloud Structure in the Stellar Initial Mass Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The possibility that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) arises mostly from cloud structure is investigated with fractal Brownian motion (fBm) clouds that have power-law power spectra. An fBm cloud with a realistic projected power spectrum slope of $\

Tropospheric NO2 retrieval algorithm for geostationary satellite instruments: applications to GEMS [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques
In this study, we develop an advanced retrieval algorithm for tropospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) from the geostationary satellite instruments and apply it to Geostationary Environment Monitoring Spectrometer (GEMS) observations.

Restoration of Simulated EnMAP Data through Sparse Spectral Unmixing

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2015
This paper proposes the use of spectral unmixing and sparse reconstruction methods to restore a simulated dataset for the Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program (EnMAP), the forthcoming German spaceborne hyperspectral mission.

AUTOMATIC BUILDING EXTRACTION AND ROOF RECONSTRUCTION IN 3K IMAGERY BASED ON LINE SEGMENTS [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016
We propose an image processing workflow to extract rectangular building footprints using georeferenced stereo-imagery and a derivative digital surface model (DSM) product.

Shifting paradigms of thought and power [PDF]

open access: yesBezbednosni Dijalozi, 2020
The article argues that a shift in paradigm is required away from the free market. The key question is if we are brave enough to call ourselves collectively and individually to moral and social accountability.
