Journal Article
Jauzac, M., Mahler, G., Edge, A. C., Sharon, K., Gillman, S., Ebeling, H., …Salomé, P. (2018). The core of the massive cluster merger MACS J0417.5-1154 as seen by VLT/MUSE. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 483(3), 3082-3097. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty3312

We present a multiwavelength analysis of the core of the massive galaxy cluster MACS J0417.5−1154 (⁠z = 0.441). Our analysis takes advantage of Very Large Telescope/Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer observations which allow the spectroscopic confirma...

Exploring the origins of a new, apparently metal-free gas cloud at z = 4.4 (2018)
Journal Article

We report the discovery and analysis of only the third Lyman-limit system in which a high-quality resolution, echelle spectrum reveals no metal absorption lines, implying a metallicity ≲1/10 000 solar. Our HIRES spectrum of the background quasar, PSS... Read More about Exploring the origins of a new, apparently metal-free gas cloud at z = 4.4.

Ultracold molecules for quantum simulation: rotational coherence in CaF and RbCs (2018)
Journal Article
Blackmore, J. A., Caldwell, L., Gregory, P. D., Bridge, E. M., Sawant, R., Aldegunde, J., …Cornish, S. L. (2018). Ultracold molecules for quantum simulation: rotational coherence in CaF and RbCs. Quantum Science and Technology, 4(1), Article 014010. https://doi.org/10.1088/2058-9565/aaee35

Polar molecules offer a new platform for quantum simulation of systems with long-range interactions, based on the electrostatic interaction between their electric dipole moments. Here, we report the development of coherent quantum state control using... Read More about Ultracold molecules for quantum simulation: rotational coherence in CaF and RbCs.

Dark matter and collider signals in an MSSM extension with vector-like multiplets (2018)
Journal Article
Araz, J. Y., Banerjee, S., Frank, M., Fuks, B., & Goudelis, A. (2018). Dark matter and collider signals in an MSSM extension with vector-like multiplets. Physical Review D, 98(11), Article 115009. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.98.115009

Motivated by grand unification considerations, we analyse a simple extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with additional pairs of vector-like chiral supermultiplets. We focus on the so-called LND setup, which enlarges the particle co... Read More about Dark matter and collider signals in an MSSM extension with vector-like multiplets.

Optimizing the accuracy and efficiency of optical turbulence profiling using adaptive optics telemetry for extremely large telescopes (2018)
Journal Article

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 483(4), 4341-4353. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty3285

Advanced adaptive optics (AO) instruments on ground-based telescopes require accurate knowledge of the atmospheric turbulence strength as a function of altitude. This information assists point spread function reconstruction, AO temporal control techn...

Novel signature for long-lived particles at the LHC (2018)
Journal Article
Banerjee, S., Bélanger, G., Bhattacherjee, B., Boudjema, F., Godbole, R. M., & Mukherjee, S. (2018). Novel signature for long-lived particles at the LHC. Physical Review D, 98(11), Article 115026. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.98.115026

In contrast to the decay products ensuing from a fast moving particle which are collimated along the original direction of the parent, those from a slow moving particle are distributed over a wide region. In the context of searches for heavy long-liv... Read More about Novel signature for long-lived particles at the LHC.

SUPER: I. Toward an unbiased study of ionized outflows in z ∼ 2 active galactic nuclei: survey overview and sample characterization⋆ (2018)
Journal Article
Circosta, C., Mainieri, V., Padovani, P., Lanzuisi, G., Salvato, M., Harrison, C., …Zappacosta, L. (2018). SUPER: I. Toward an unbiased study of ionized outflows in z ∼ 2 active galactic nuclei: survey overview and sample characterization⋆. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 620, Article A82. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201833520

Theoretical models of galaxy formation suggest that the presence of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) is required to regulate the growth of its host galaxy through feedback mechanisms, produced by, for example, AGN-driven outflows. Although many obser... Read More about SUPER: I. Toward an unbiased study of ionized outflows in z ∼ 2 active galactic nuclei: survey overview and sample characterization⋆.
