Evidence has emerged for a stochastic signal correlated among 67 pulsars within the 15-year pulsar-timing data set compiled by the NANOGrav collaboration. Similar signals have been found in data from the European, Indian, Parkes, and Chinese PTAs. Th

Pulsar timing array observations have found evidence for an isotropic gravitational wave background with the Hellings-Downs angular correlations, expected from general relativity. This interpretation hinges on the measured shape of the angular correl

Laguerre-Gaussian modes become elegant after an azimuthal phase modulation

Autor: Cocotos, Vasilios, Mkhumbuza, Light, Forbes, Kayn A., Koch, Robert de Mello, Dudley, Angela, Nape, Isaac

Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) modes are solutions of the paraxial Helmholtz equation in cylindrical coordinates and are associated with light fields carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM). It is customary to modulate such beams using phase-only vortex prof

Determining minimum energy conical intersections by enveloping the seam: exploring ground and excited state intersections in coupled cluster theory

Autor: Angelico, Sara, Kjønstad, Eirik F., Koch, Henrik

Minimum energy conical intersections can be used to rationalize photochemical processes. In this Letter, we examine an algorithm to locate these structures that does not require the evaluation of nonadiabatic coupling vectors, showing that it minimiz

The detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background by pulsar timing arrays suggests the presence of a supermassive black hole binary population. Although the observed spectrum generally aligns with predictions from orbital evolution driven b
