[{"DOAJ_listed":"1","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Cold atom experiments show that a mobile impurity particle immersed in a weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate forms a well-defined quasiparticle (Bose polaron) for weak to moderate impurity-boson interaction strengths, whereas a significant line broadening is consistently observed for strong interactions. Motivated by this, we introduce a phenomenological theory based on the assumption that the most relevant states are characterized by the impurity correlated with at most one boson, since they have the largest overlap with the uncorrelated states to which the most common experimental probes couple. These experimentally relevant states can, however, decay to lower energy states characterized by correlations involving multiple bosons, and we model this using a minimal variational wave function combined with a complex impurity-boson interaction strength. We first motivate this approach by comparing to a more elaborate theory that includes correlations with up to two bosons. Our phenomenological model is shown to recover the main results of two recent experiments probing both the spectral and the nonequilibrium properties of the Bose polaron. Our work offers an intuitive framework for analyzing experimental data and highlights the importance of understanding the complicated problem of the Bose polaron decay in a many-body setting."}],"title":"Phenomenological model of decaying Bose polarons","department":[{"_id":"MiLe"}],"quality_controlled":"1","OA_type":"gold","article_type":"letter_note","doi":"10.1103/16dk-5dgx","PlanS_conform":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","ddc":["530"],"date_created":"2026-03-01T23:01:39Z","project":[{"name":"Angulon: physics and applications of a new quasiparticle","_id":"2688CF98-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"801770","call_identifier":"H2020"},{"grant_number":"12078","_id":"8fa7db46-16d5-11f0-9cad-917600954daf","name":"Polarons in Lead Halide Perovskites"}],"author":[{"last_name":"Al Hyder","full_name":"Al Hyder, Ragheed","id":"d1c405be-ae15-11ed-8510-ccf53278162e","first_name":"Ragheed"},{"first_name":"G.

The scaling of the correlation length of the latter was recently characterized in Probab. Duke Math. J. 172(9), 1781–1811 (2023) and arXiv:2011.08768v3, (2022); our analysis is reminiscent of the multi-scale approach of the latter work and of Combinatorica 9, 161–187 (1989) . We show that at every dyadic scale from the system size down to the lattice spacing the minimizer contains at most order-one Dirichlet energy per unit length. We also establish a quenched homogenization result in the sense that the leading order of the minimal energy becomes deterministic as the ratio system size / lattice spacing diverges. To this purpose we adapt arguments from arXiv:2401.06768, (2024) on the (d + 1)-dimensional version our the model, with a Brownian replacing the white noise potential, to obtain the initial large-scale bounds. Based on our estimate of the (p = 3)-Dirichlet energy, we give an informal justification of the geometric linearization. Our bounds, which are oblivious to the microscopic cut-off scale provided by the lattice spacing, yield tightness of the law of minimizers in the space of continuous functions as the lattice spacing is sent to zero.","lang":"eng"}],"day":"14","corr_author":"1","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s00440-026-01468-y"}],"type":"journal_article","author":[{"last_name":"Otto","first_name":"Felix","full_name":"Otto, Felix"},{"last_name":"Palmieri","first_name":"Matteo","full_name":"Palmieri, Matteo"},{"last_name":"Wagner","first_name":"Christian","id":"bf0c729b-2619-11f0-8024-9d69bb2b8b20","full_name":"Wagner, Christian"}],"OA_place":"publisher","date_created":"2026-03-02T10:05:23Z"},{"acknowledgement":"We thank the referee for several helpful suggestions.

Extreme emission line galaxies (EELGs) are believed to significantly contribute to the star formation activity and mass assembly in galaxies. EELGs likely also play a leading role in the cosmic re-ionization as their interstellar medium may allow a significant fraction of their ionizing photons to escape (> 5%). Finding low-redshift analogues of these high-z galaxies is therefore essential to characterizing the physical conditions in the interstellar medium of these galaxies and understanding the processes that re-ionized the Universe.\r\n\r\nAims. We aimed to develop a robust and efficient method for the photometric identification of EELGs using the J-PAS survey. J-PAS will cover approximately 8500 deg2 of the sky with 54 narrow-band filters in the optical range plus i-SDSS, enabling detailed studies of the physical properties of these galaxies. In this work we focused on an initial subset of the survey: a 30 square degree area with complete observations in all bands.\r\n\r\nMethods. We combine equivalent width (EW) measurements from J-PAS narrow-band photometry with artificial intelligence techniques to identify galaxies with emission lines exceeding 300 Å. We validated our selection using spectroscopic data from DESI DR1 and characterized the selected sample through spectral energy distribution fitting with CIGALE.\r\n\r\nResults. We identify 917 EELGs up to z = 0.8 over 30 deg2, achieving a purity of 95% and a completeness of 96% for i-SDSS < 22.5 mag. Importantly, active galactic nucleus contamination was carefully considered and is estimated to be around 5%. Furthermore, a cross-match with DESI yielded 79 counterparts; their redshifts are in excellent agreement with our photometric estimates, thereby confirming the reliability of our redshift determination. In addition, the derived emission line fluxes are in good agreement with spectroscopic measurements. Moreover, the selected sample reveals strong correlations between the ionizing photon production efficiency (ξion) and EW(Hβ), which are consistent with previous observational studies at low and high redshifts and theoretical expectations. Finally, most of the sources surpass the ionizing efficiency threshold required for re-ionization, highlighting their relevance as local analogues of early-Universe galaxies."}],"DOAJ_listed":"1","title":"J-PAS: First identification, physical properties, and ionization efficiency of extreme emission line galaxies","department":[{"_id":"JoMa"}],"OA_type":"diamond","quality_controlled":"1","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1051/0004-6361/202557358","oa_version":"Published Version","ddc":["520"]},{"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2041-1723"]},"status":"public","publication_status":"published","article_number":"946","date_updated":"2026-04-28T12:12:46Z","pmid":1,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-026-68660-5","scopus_import":"1","date_published":"2026-02-16T00:00:00Z","file":[{"date_created":"2026-03-02T14:27:56Z","relation":"main_file","success":1,"checksum":"dd7a98de892d0b5abefca7e290ca0f77","content_type":"application/pdf","access_level":"open_access","creator":"dernst","file_name":"2026_NatureComm_Rak.pdf","file_size":2570918,"file_id":"21390","date_updated":"2026-03-02T14:27:56Z"}],"user_id":"ba8df636-2132-11f1-aed0-ed93e2281fdd","has_accepted_license":"1","oa":1,"file_date_updated":"2026-03-02T14:27:56Z","external_id":{"pmid":["41698893"]},"acknowledgement":"We are grateful to A.

Paradoxically, perovskites are also known for having very short exciton decay times. Here, we resolve this apparent contradiction by showing that key optoelectronic properties of perovskites can be explained by localized flexoelectric polarization confined to interfaces between domains of spontaneous strain. Using birefringence imaging, electrochemical staining, and zero-bias photocurrent measurements, we visualize the domain structure and directly probe the associated internal fields in nominally cubic single crystals of methylammonium lead bromide. We demonstrate that localized flexoelectric fields spatially separate electrons and holes to opposite sides of domain walls, exponentially suppressing recombination. Domain walls thus act as efficient mesoscopic transport channels for long-lived photocarriers, microscopically linking structural heterogeneity to charge transport and offering mechanistically informed design principles for perovskite solar-energy technologies."}],"PlanS_conform":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","ddc":["530"],"doi":"10.1038/s41467-026-68660-5","article_type":"original","type":"journal_article","intvolume":"        17","author":[{"last_name":"Rak","first_name":"Dmytro","id":"70313b46-47c2-11ec-9e88-cd79101918fe","full_name":"Rak, Dmytro"},{"last_name":"Lorenc","full_name":"Lorenc, Dusan","id":"40D8A3E6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Dusan"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-7597-043X","last_name":"Balazs","first_name":"Daniel","id":"302BADF6-85FC-11EA-9E3B-B9493DDC885E","full_name":"Balazs, Daniel"},{"last_name":"Zhumekenov","full_name":"Zhumekenov, Ayan A.","first_name":"Ayan A."},{"last_name":"Bakr","first_name":"Osman M.","full_name":"Bakr, Osman M."},{"first_name":"Zhanybek","id":"45E67A2A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Alpichshev, Zhanybek","orcid":"0000-0002-7183-5203","last_name":"Alpichshev"}],"OA_place":"publisher","date_created":"2026-03-02T10:06:58Z","day":"16","related_material":{"link":[{"url":"https://ista.ac.at/en/news/explaining-next-generation-solar-cells/","relation":"press_release","description":"News on ISTA website"}]},"corr_author":"1"},{"issue":"6","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2375-2548"]},"status":"public","article_number":"eady1461","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2026-03-02T14:23:22Z","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.ady1461","date_published":"2026-02-01T00:00:00Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"scopus_import":"1","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","file":[{"date_updated":"2026-03-02T14:19:35Z","file_id":"21389","file_name":"2026_ScienceAdv_Sasidharan.pdf","file_size":2841345,"creator":"dernst","access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"fa9f6dafe3538e2d2872c098e06d1712","success":1,"relation":"main_file","date_created":"2026-03-02T14:19:35Z"}],"file_date_updated":"2026-03-02T14:19:35Z","has_accepted_license":"1","oa":1,"article_processing_charge":"Yes","citation":{"ieee":"V.

Here, we report the discovery and characterization of abundant extracellular vesicles (EVs) in planarians. Using imaging and molecular analysis, we show conservation of biogenesis, morphology, and protein composition of planarian EVs. Environmental stressors significantly elevate EV release, indicating that planarians dynamically regulate vesicle production. Functionally, planarian EVs mediate intercellular communication by transferring regulatory signals: We find that they shuttle small RNAs that effect systemic RNA interference (RNAi) throughout the organism. Notably, gene knockdown experiments reveal a crucial role for AGO-3, a member of the Argonaute family of proteins, in modulating the association of small interfering RNAs with EVs, linking the intracellular RNAi machinery to EV-based signaling. These findings highlight EVs as pivotal mediators of cell-cell communication in planarians, with broad implications for understanding the coordination of gene regulation and tissue regeneration in animals."}],"DOAJ_listed":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","ddc":["570"],"article_type":"original","doi":"10.1126/sciadv.ady1461","intvolume":"        12","type":"journal_article","author":[{"full_name":"Sasidharan, Vidyanand","first_name":"Vidyanand","last_name":"Sasidharan"},{"last_name":"Ancellotti","first_name":"Laura","full_name":"Ancellotti, Laura"},{"id":"034e0824-174b-11ef-b32b-9366a0e70d1c","full_name":"Doddihal, Viraj","first_name":"Viraj","last_name":"Doddihal"},{"first_name":"Carolyn","full_name":"Brewster, Carolyn","last_name":"Brewster"},{"full_name":"Mann, Frederick","first_name":"Frederick","last_name":"Mann"},{"full_name":"McKinney, Mary Cathleen","first_name":"Mary Cathleen","last_name":"McKinney"},{"last_name":"Varberg","first_name":"Joseph","full_name":"Varberg, Joseph"},{"last_name":"Ross","first_name":"Eric","full_name":"Ross, Eric"},{"last_name":"Deng","first_name":"Fengyan","full_name":"Deng, Fengyan"},{"last_name":"Yi","first_name":"Kexi","full_name":"Yi, Kexi"},{"full_name":"Sánchez Alvarado, Alejandro","first_name":"Alejandro","last_name":"Sánchez Alvarado"}],"OA_place":"publisher","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/","date_created":"2026-03-02T10:08:07Z","day":"01"},{"department":[{"_id":"MiSi"}],"title":"Modelling chemotaxis of branched cells in complex environments provides insights into immune cell navigation","abstract":[{"text":"Cell migration in vivo is often guided by chemical signaling, i.e., chemotaxis.

In this study, we use a theoretical model of branched cell migration on a network to explore the cellular response to chemical gradients. The model predicts the response of a branched cell to a chemical gradient: how the cell reorients its internal polarity and how it navigates through a complex environment up a chemical gradient. We then compare the model’s predictions with experimental observations of neutrophils migrating to the site of a laser-inflicted wound in a zebrafish larva fin, and neutrophils migrating in vitro inside a regular lattice of pillars. We find that the model captures the details of the subcellular response to the chemokine gradient, as well as qualitative characteristics of the large-scale migration, suggesting that the neutrophils behave as fast cells, which explains the functionality of these immune cells.","lang":"eng"}],"DOAJ_listed":"1","quality_controlled":"1","OA_type":"gold","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1371/journal.pcbi.1013934","PlanS_conform":"1","ddc":["570"],"oa_version":"Published Version","date_created":"2026-03-02T10:08:38Z","type":"journal_article","intvolume":"        22","OA_place":"publisher","author":[{"full_name":"Liu, Jiayi","first_name":"Jiayi","last_name":"Liu"},{"last_name":"Ron","first_name":"Jonathan E.","full_name":"Ron, Jonathan E."},{"last_name":"Rinaldi","first_name":"Giulia","full_name":"Rinaldi, Giulia"},{"full_name":"Williantarra, Ivanna","first_name":"Ivanna","last_name":"Williantarra"},{"first_name":"Antonios","full_name":"Georgantzoglou, Antonios","last_name":"Georgantzoglou"},{"first_name":"Ingrid","full_name":"de Vries, Ingrid","id":"4C7D837E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"de Vries"},{"first_name":"Michael K","id":"41E9FBEA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Sixt, Michael K","last_name":"Sixt","orcid":"0000-0002-6620-9179"},{"full_name":"Sarris, Milka","first_name":"Milka","last_name":"Sarris"},{"full_name":"Gov, Nir S.","first_name":"Nir S.","last_name":"Gov"}],"project":[{"grant_number":"101071793","_id":"bd91e723-d553-11ed-ba76-fe7eeb2185fd","name":"Pushing from within: Control of cell shape, integrity and motility by cytoskeletal pushing forces"}],"day":"03","status":"public","publication_status":"published","article_number":"e1013934","issue":"2","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1553-7358"]},"pmid":1,"date_updated":"2026-03-02T14:12:22Z","external_id":{"pmid":["41632822"]},"file_date_updated":"2026-03-02T14:11:14Z","oa":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","article_processing_charge":"Yes","volume":22,"citation":{"apa":"Liu, J., Ron, J.

However, systems that require verification or monitoring by a third party to ensure compliance with a specification might contain sensitive information, causing privacy concerns when usual runtime verification approaches are used. Privacy is compromised if protected information about the system, or sensitive data that is processed by the system, is revealed. In addition, revealing the specification being monitored may undermine the essence of third-party verification.\r\n\r\nIn this thesis, we propose a protocol for privacy-preserving runtime verification of systems against formal sequential specifications. We develop the protocol in two steps. In the first step, the monitor verifies whether the system satisfies the specification without learning anything else, though both parties are aware of the specification. In the second step, we extend the protocol to ensure that the system remains oblivious to the monitored specification, while the monitor learns only whether the system satisfies the specification and nothing more. Our protocol adapts and improves existing techniques used in cryptography, and more specifically, multi-party computation.\r\n\r\nThe sequential specification defines the observation step of the monitor, whose granularity depends on the situation (e.g., banks may be monitored on a daily basis). Our protocol exchanges a single message per observation step, after an initialization phase. This design minimizes communication overhead, enabling relatively lightweight privacy-preserving monitoring. We implement our approach for monitoring specifications described by register automata and evaluate it experimentally.\r\n","lang":"eng"}],"degree_awarded":"MS","title":"Privacy-preserving runtime verification","department":[{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"ToHe"}],"alternative_title":["ISTA Master’s Thesis"],"supervisor":[{"first_name":"Thomas A","id":"40876CD8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Henzinger, Thomas A","orcid":"0000-0002-2985-7724","last_name":"Henzinger"}]},{"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2367-1734"],"issn":["2367-1726"]},"article_number":"5","publication_status":"published","status":"public","date_updated":"2026-03-09T11:31:29Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","file":[{"creator":"dernst","file_size":323111,"file_name":"2026_JourAppliedCompTopology_Edelsbrunner.pdf","date_updated":"2026-03-09T11:29:30Z","file_id":"21416","content_type":"application/pdf","access_level":"open_access","relation":"main_file","success":1,"checksum":"0bf6dc430cafa40c08f260fe17d54595","date_created":"2026-03-09T11:29:30Z"}],"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s41468-026-00233-3","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"scopus_import":"1","date_published":"2026-03-01T00:00:00Z","article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","volume":10,"citation":{"chicago":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert, Matthew Kahle, and Shu Kanazawa. “Maximum Persistent Betti Numbers of Čech Complexes.” <i>Journal of Applied and Computational Topology</i>.

While the former is starting to be well understood, the latter remains a major theoretical challenge, especially in programmable systems and the so-called semi-addressable regime, where binding is often nondeterministic and the formation of off-target structures negatively influences the assembly. Here, we show that it is possible to simultaneously sculpt the assembly outcome and the assembly kinetics through the underexplored design space of binding energies and particle concentrations. By formulating the assembly process as a complex reaction network, we calculate and optimize the tradeoff between assembly speed and quality and show that parameter optimization can speed up assembly by many orders of magnitude without lowering the yield of the target structure. Although the exact speedup varies from design to design, we find the largest speedups for nondeterministic systems where unoptimized assembly is the slowest, sometimes even making them assemble faster than optimized, fully addressable designs. Therefore, these results not only solve a key challenge in semi-addressable self-assembly but further emphasize the utility of semi-addressability, where designs have the potential to be faster as well as cheaper (fewer particle species) and better (higher yield). More broadly, our results highlight the importance of parameter optimization in programmable self-assembly and provide practical tools for simultaneous optimization of kinetics and yield in a wide range of systems.","lang":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"CaGo"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"title":"Simultaneous optimization of assembly time and yield in programmable self-assembly","ddc":["540"],"oa_version":"Published Version","doi":"10.1063/5.0304731","article_type":"original","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","file":[{"date_created":"2026-03-09T10:38:55Z","checksum":"9bdb8870930e83edb973408da3038559","success":1,"relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21415","date_updated":"2026-03-09T10:38:55Z","file_size":6903766,"file_name":"2026_JourChemPhysics_Huebl.pdf","creator":"dernst"}],"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0304731","date_published":"2026-02-28T00:00:00Z","scopus_import":"1","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","citation":{"chicago":"Hübl, Maximilian, and Carl Peter Goodrich. “Simultaneous Optimization of Assembly Time and Yield in Programmable Self-Assembly.” <i>Journal of Chemical Physics</i>.

For decades, biologists have considered meiotic drivers as interesting, albeit esoteric, case studies. It is now clear, however, that meiotic drive is more common and phylogenetically widespread than previously supposed. Indeed, intensive study of a few well-known cases has begun to reveal the evolutionary genomic consequences of meiotic drive. We argue here that many features of genome evolution, content, and organization that are seemingly inexplicable by organismal adaptation or nearly neutral processes are instead best accounted for by recurrent histories of meiotic drive. We review how meiotic drive can affect the evolution of sequences, gene copy numbers, genes with functions in meiosis and gametogenesis, signatures of “selection,” chromosome rearrangements, and karyotype evolution. We also explore the interactions of meiotic drive elements with other classes of selfish genetic elements, including satellite DNAs, transposable elements, and with the endogenous host genes involved in drive suppression. Finally, we argue that some aspects of drive-mediated genome evolution are now sufficiently well established that we might reverse the direction of discovery—rather than ask how drive affects genome evolution, we can use genome data to discover new putative drive elements.","lang":"eng"}],"DOAJ_listed":"1","ddc":["570"],"PlanS_conform":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1093/molbev/msag020"},{"title":"On the MST-ratio: Theoretical bounds and complexity of finding the maximum","department":[{"_id":"HeEd"}],"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Given a finite set of red and blue points in R^d, the MST-ratio is defined as the total length of the Euclidean minimum spanning trees of the red points and the blue points, divided by the length of the Euclidean minimum spanning tree of their union.

These re-routing mechanisms rely on pre-installed static re-routing rules at the nodes (the routers), which depend only on local failure information, namely on the failed links incident to the node. Ideally, a network is perfectly resilient: the re-routing rules ensure that packets are always successfully routed to their destinations as long as the source and the destination are still physically connected in the underlying network after the failures. Unfortunately, there are examples where achieving perfect resilience is not possible. Surprisingly, only very little is known about the algorithmic aspect of when and how perfect resilience can be achieved. We investigate the computational complexity of analyzing such local fast re-routing mechanisms. Our main result is a negative one: we show that even checking whether a given set of static re-routing rules ensures perfect resilience is coNP-complete. Additionally, we investigate other fundamental variations of the problem. In particular, we show that our coNP-completeness proof also applies to scenarios where the re-routing rules have specific patterns (known as skipping in the literature). On the positive side, for scenarios where nodes do not have information about the link from which a packet arrived (the so-called in-port), we present a linear-time algorithm to realize perfect resilience whenever possible (which we show can also be determined in linear time).

Here we show that magnetic-field-driven switching of AFM domains can in many cases be enabled by a generic reduction of magnetic exchange at surfaces. We use statistical mechanics and Monte Carlo simulations to demonstrate that an inequivalence in magnetic exchange between top and bottom surface moments, combined with the enhanced magnetic susceptibility of surface spins, can enable deterministic selection of antiferromagnetic domains depending on the magnetic-field ramping direction. We further show that this mechanism provides a natural interpretation for experimental observations of hysteresis in magneto-optical response of the van der Waals AFM $\\mathrm{MnBi_2Te_4}$.

Here, we explore the possibility of speeding up these interactions in 3D crystals via parametric amplification. For this purpose, we derive a general Hamiltonian for the parametric amplification of spin-motion coupling that is broadly applicable to normal modes with motion transverse to or along the spatial extent of the crystal. Unlike in lower-dimensional crystals, we find that the ability to faithfully (uniformly) amplify the spin-spin interactions in 3D crystals depends on the physical implementation of the spin-motion coupling. We consider the light-shift gate, and the so-called phase-insensitive and phase-sensitive Mølmer-Sørensen (MS) gates, and we find that only the phase-sensitive MS gate can be faithfully amplified in general 3D crystals. We discuss a situation where nonuniform amplification can be advantageous. We also reconsider the effect of counter-rotating terms on parametric amplification and find that they are not as detrimental as previous studies suggest.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"Parametric amplification of spin-motion coupling in three-dimensional trapped-ion crystals","department":[{"_id":"JoFi"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"quality_controlled":"1","OA_type":"hybrid"},{"date_updated":"2026-03-16T10:59:16Z","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-6361"],"eissn":["1432-0746"]},"article_number":"A75","publication_status":"published","status":"public","publication":"Astronomy & Astrophysics","_id":"21451","publisher":"EDP Sciences","month":"03","year":"2026","tmp":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","file":[{"creator":"dernst","file_name":"2026_AstronomyAstrophysics_Torralba2.pdf","file_size":2510157,"file_id":"21460","date_updated":"2026-03-16T10:57:49Z","content_type":"application/pdf","access_level":"open_access","relation":"main_file","checksum":"fcab9cb3dcf1d68612e1fdc8191643c1","success":1,"date_created":"2026-03-16T10:57:49Z"}],"scopus_import":"1","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202557537","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_published":"2026-03-01T00:00:00Z","citation":{"apa":"Torralba Torregrosa, A., Matthee, J.

A cocoon of dense excited gas is emerging as a key component to explain the most striking properties of LRDs, such as strong Balmer breaks and Balmer absorption, as well as the weak IR emission. To dissect the structure of LRDs, we analyzed new deep JWST/NIRSpec PRISM and G395H spectra of FRESCO-GN-9771, one of the most luminous known LRDs at z = 5.5. These spectra reveal a strong Balmer break, broad Balmer lines, and very narrow [O III] emission. We revealed a forest of optical [Fe II] lines, which we argue are emerging from a dense (nH = 109 − 10 cm−3) warm layer with electron temperature Te ≈ 7000 K. The broad wings of Hα and Hβ have an exponential profile due to electron scattering in this same layer. The high Hα : Hβ : Hγ flux ratio of ≈10.4 : 1 : 0.14 is an indicator of collisional excitation and resonant scattering dominating the Balmer line emission. A narrow Hγ component, unseen in the other two Balmer lines due to outshining by the broad components, could trace the ISM of a normal host galaxy with a star formation rate of ∼5 M⊙ yr−1. The warm layer is mostly opaque to Balmer transitions, producing a characteristic P Cygni profile in the line centers suggesting outflowing motions. This same layer is responsible for shaping the Balmer break. The broadband spectrum can be reasonably matched by a simple photoionized slab model that dominates the λ > 1500 Å continuum and a low-mass (∼108 M⊙) galaxy that could explain the narrow [O III], with only a subdominant contribution to the UV continuum. Our findings indicate that Balmer lines are not directly tracing the gas kinematics near the SMBH and that the BH mass scale is likely much lower than virial indicators suggest."}],"department":[{"_id":"JoMa"}],"title":"The warm outer layer of a little red dot as the source of [Fe ii] and collisional Balmer lines with scattering wings","corr_author":"1","day":"01","OA_place":"publisher","author":[{"first_name":"Alberto","id":"018f0249-0e87-11f0-b167-cbce08fbd541","full_name":"Torralba Torregrosa, Alberto","last_name":"Torralba Torregrosa","orcid":"0000-0001-5586-6950"},{"first_name":"Jorryt J","id":"7439a258-f3c0-11ec-9501-9df22fe06720","full_name":"Matthee, Jorryt J","last_name":"Matthee","orcid":"0000-0003-2871-127X"},{"full_name":"Pezzulli, Gabriele","first_name":"Gabriele","last_name":"Pezzulli"},{"last_name":"Naidu","first_name":"Rohan P.","full_name":"Naidu, Rohan P."},{"full_name":"Ishikawa, Yuzo","first_name":"Yuzo","last_name":"Ishikawa"},{"full_name":"Brammer, Gabriel B.","first_name":"Gabriel B.","last_name":"Brammer"},{"full_name":"Chang, Seok Jun","first_name":"Seok Jun","last_name":"Chang"},{"full_name":"Chisholm, John","first_name":"John","last_name":"Chisholm"},{"first_name":"Anna","full_name":"De Graaff, Anna","last_name":"De Graaff"},{"full_name":"D’Eugenio, Francesco","first_name":"Francesco","last_name":"D’Eugenio"},{"first_name":"Claudia","full_name":"Di Cesare, Claudia","id":"2d002343-372f-11ef-98ec-a164d20427cb","last_name":"Di Cesare"},{"last_name":"Eilers","first_name":"Anna Christina","full_name":"Eilers, Anna Christina"},{"first_name":"Jenny E.","full_name":"Greene, Jenny E.","last_name":"Greene"},{"full_name":"Gronke, Max","first_name":"Max","last_name":"Gronke"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-8386-3546","last_name":"Iani","first_name":"Edoardo","full_name":"Iani, Edoardo","id":"4053390a-6b68-11ef-9828-a3b8adef8d0a"},{"last_name":"Kokorev","full_name":"Kokorev, Vasily","first_name":"Vasily"},{"last_name":"Kotiwale","first_name":"Gauri","id":"1438afc8-1ff6-11ee-9fa6-cd4a75d66875","full_name":"Kotiwale, Gauri"},{"last_name":"Kramarenko","orcid":"0000-0001-5346-6048","first_name":"Ivan","id":"9a9394cb-3200-11ee-973b-f5ba2a8b16e4","full_name":"Kramarenko, Ivan"},{"first_name":"Yilun","full_name":"Ma, Yilun","last_name":"Ma"},{"last_name":"Mascia","first_name":"Sara","full_name":"Mascia, Sara","id":"edaf889c-c7cd-11ef-ab1b-bb28c431bd29"},{"last_name":"Navarrete","first_name":"Benjamín","id":"aa14a535-50c9-11ef-b52e-e0c373d10148","full_name":"Navarrete, Benjamín"},{"first_name":"Erica","full_name":"Nelson, Erica","last_name":"Nelson"},{"full_name":"Oesch, Pascal","first_name":"Pascal","last_name":"Oesch"},{"first_name":"Robert A.","full_name":"Simcoe, Robert A.","last_name":"Simcoe"},{"full_name":"Wuyts, Stijn","first_name":"Stijn","last_name":"Wuyts"}],"project":[{"name":"Young galaxies as tracers and agents of cosmic reionization","_id":"bd9b2118-d553-11ed-ba76-db24564edfea","grant_number":"101076224"}],"intvolume":"       707","type":"journal_article","date_created":"2026-03-15T23:01:36Z"},{"citation":{"ama":"Di Cesare C, Matthee JJ, Naidu RP, et al.

With JWST, the SFMS can now be investigated at high redshifts down to masses of ∼106 M⊙, using sensitive star formation rate tracers such as the Hα emission, which allow us to probe the variability in the star formation histories. We present inferences of the SFMS based on 316 Hα-selected galaxies at z ∼ 4 − 5 with log(M★/M⊙) = 6.4 − 10.6. These galaxies were identified behind the Abell 2744 lensing cluster with NIRCam grism spectroscopy from the survey All the Little Things (ALT). At face value, our data suggest a shallow slope in the SFMS (SFR ∝ M★α, with α = 0.45). After we corrected this for the Hα-flux limited nature of our survey using a Bayesian framework, the slope steepened to α = 0.59+0.10−0.09, whereas current data on their own are inconclusive on the mass dependence of the scatter. These slopes differ significantly from the slope of ∼1 that is expected from the observed evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function and from simulations. When we fixed the slope to α = 1, we found evidence for a decreasing intrinsic scatter with stellar mass (from ∼0.5 dex at M★ = 108 M⊙ to 0.4 dex at M★ = 1010 M⊙). This difference might be explained by a (combination of) luminosity-dependent SFR(Hα) calibration, a population of (mini)-quenched low-mass galaxies, or underestimated dust attenuation in high-mass galaxies. Future deep observations with different facilities can quantify these processes, which will enable us to achieve better insights into the variability of the star formation histories.","lang":"eng"}],"DOAJ_listed":"1","department":[{"_id":"JoMa"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"title":"The slope and scatter of the star-forming main sequence at z ∼ 5: Reconciling observations with simulations","quality_controlled":"1","OA_type":"diamond","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1051/0004-6361/202557790","PlanS_conform":"1","ddc":["520"],"oa_version":"Published Version"},{"status":"public","publication_status":"published","article_number":"2639085","issue":"1","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1947-5705"],"eissn":["1947-5713"]},"date_updated":"2026-03-16T10:21:38Z","file_date_updated":"2026-03-16T10:18:26Z","oa":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","citation":{"ieee":"L.

The highest rates of lake size increase were observed in the Kosi Basin, followed by Yarlung Zangbo, Manas, Karnali, Upper Indus, and Tista, indicating their potential as future GLOF-prone regions. Moreover, a Himalayan-scale GLOF hazard map was generated integrating population, hydropower infrastructure, potential flood volume, roads, settlements, and railways revealing high hazard levels in the Chenab, Jhelum, Teesta, and Beas basins in India; the Koshi, Tama-Koshi, and Dudh-Koshi basins in Nepal; and the Kuri Chu sub-basin of the Manas Basin in Bhutan.

Extending it into the nonlinear regime broadens its scope and can provide valuable insight into interactions among these modes. However, interpreting nonlinear spectra is challenging because resonant features in this case do not always reflect intrinsic material dynamics. Here, we study nonlinear THz-induced Kerr effect in a generic material LaAlO3. After detailed analysis of temporal oscillations of the Kerr signal, we identify an 𝐸𝑔 Raman mode at 1.1 THz excited through a two-photon process, while two additional peaks (0.86 and 0.36 THz) arise from phase matching of the near-infrared probe beam with co- and counterpropagating THz pump fields, mediated by off-resonant electronic hyperpolarizability. These results demonstrate the crucial role of kinematic effects in shaping THz-induced Kerr response and establish a framework for interpreting nonlinear spectroscopies in complex materials.","lang":"eng"}],"quality_controlled":"1","OA_type":"hybrid","doi":"10.1103/1c5k-9z82","article_type":"original","ddc":["530"],"PlanS_conform":"1","oa_version":"Published Version"}]
