Cygnus X-3 is a microquasar composed of a compact object of unknown nature closely orbiting around a Wolf-Rayet star. The particularities of this source make it a unique case among microquasars. This …
Cygnus X-3, hosting a Wolf-Rayet (WR) star whose dense wind produces various spectral lines due to photoionization by X-rays from a compact object, provides an ideal laboratory for studying wind dynam…
We consider the ghost-free dRGT massive gravity with two of its three possible mass terms. This theory has five gravitational degrees of freedom. On Minkowski spacetime these modes have helicity-2, -1…
Detecting cold molecular gas in metal-poor starbursts remains a major challenge. Low carbon and oxygen abundances hinder CO formation, while low dust content reduces shielding against UV photodissocia…
Monocular scene flow estimation aims to recover dense 3D motion from image sequences, yet most existing methods are limited to two-frame inputs, restricting temporal modeling and robustness to occlusi…
With the continuous expansion of blockchain application scenarios, consortium chains have raised higher performance and security requirements for consensus mechanisms. Unlike public blockchains, conso…
Blockchain technology enhances transparency by maintaining a distributed ledger among mutually untrusting parties. Despite its advantages, scalability and availability remain critical bottlenecks that…
We propose an incremental approach for safety proofs that decomposes a proof with a complex inductive invariant into a sequence of simpler proof steps. Our proof system combines rules for (i) forward …
Supersonic winds from massive stars carry great amounts of kinetic power and modify the surrounding interstellar medium. Through this interaction a stellar bubble is formed. Theoretical studies and re…
While the connection between massive stars and supernova explosions is well established observationally, the link between massive stars and black hole formation remains elusive. Some massive stars may…
This paper presents a stereo-vision-based system mounted on a drone for detecting and localising radiata pine branches to support autonomous pruning. The proposed pipeline comprises two stages: branch…
Effpi is a framework for writing strongly-typed message-passing programs in Scala, where the compiler enforces the conformance of process implementations to specified protocol types. A compiler plugin…
The stability of binary mass transfer is a critical problem for binary evolution. We systematically calculate the adiabatic mass-loss model for naked helium stars with masses ranging from 10$M_{\odot}…
Ferrimagnetic spinel materials of formula AB2X4, where A and B are transition metals and X is oxygen or sulphur, hold promise for the realization of multiferroic characteristics. In this work, we repo…
Investigating black holes in modified theories of gravity offers fertile ground for exploring phenomena beyond the scope of general relativity. We investigate a novel class of charged anti-de Sitter (…
With their emission-line dominated spectra, the appearance of Wolf-Rayet stars is shaped by their strong stellar winds. Yet, the physical mechanisms behind their high mass loss have long remained enig…
This work studies the likely dust seeding processes arising from alkali metal and alkaline earth ionisation, epoxidation (epoxide bond formation via oxygen atom insertion into C=C bonds), and grain ch…
We present the Ripples of Stellar Enrichment (RoSE) simulations, which follow a Milky Way-like isolated disc galaxy with star-by-star feedback and nucleosynthesis from all significant channels -- Wolf…
Polarization provides additional diagnostic opportunities for probing the structured environments of massive stars as well as the illumination of those environments by stars that are not spherical. Af…
We study the physical mechanisms underlying the production of orbitally-modulated PeV photons from Cyg X-3, recently discovered by the LHAASO collaboration. Our key findings are as follows. Helium nuc…
