Mitigating radiation damage of single photon detectors for space applications

, 2017
Single-photon detectors in space must retain useful performance characteristics despite being bombarded with sub-atomic particles. Mitigating the effects of this space radiation is vital to enabling new space applications which require high-fidelity ...

Bolometric detection of Josephson radiation [PDF]

Nature Nanotechnology
AbstractOne of the most promising approaches towards large-scale quantum computation uses devices based on many Josephson junctions. Yet, even today, open questions regarding the single junction remain unsolved, such as the detailed understanding of the quantum phase transitions, the coupling of the Josephson junction to the environment or how to ...

A leptonic-hadronic model for the afterglow of gamma-ray burst 090510

, 2010
We model multiwavelength afterglow data from the short Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 090510 using a combined leptonic-hadronic model of synchrotron radiation from an adiabatic blast wave.

Detection of high Lyman continuum leakage from four low-redshift compact star-forming galaxies

, 2016
Following our first detection reported in Izotov et al. (2016), we present the detection of Lyman continuum (LyC) radiation of four other compact star-forming galaxies observed with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) onboard the Hubble Space Telescope
