Scaling properties of invariant densities of coupled Tchebyscheff maps
We study 1-dimensional coupled map lattices consisting of diffusively coupled Tchebyscheff maps of N-th order. For small coupling constants a we determine the...
Scaling relations in early-type galaxies from integral-field stellar kinematics
Early-type galaxies (ETGs) satisfy a now classic scaling relation Re ∝ σ1.2eI-0.8e, the Fundamental Plane (FP; Djorgovski & Davis 1987; Dressler et al. 1987)...
Scaling relations of antitruncated stellar discs in galaxies across the Hubble Sequence
Borlaff et al. (2014) found that the characteristic photometric parameters of antitruncated discs in S0 galaxies follow tight scaling relations. Now, we have...
Scanning the population of planetary systems around stars with wide brown dwarf companions
Stars with wide brown dwarf companions that host exoplanets are extremely rare, as only four were reported to date. Different theories propose that planets can...
Scattering Polarization and the Hanle Effect in Hα as a Probe of Chromospheric Magnetism: Modeling vs. Observations
The Hanle effect in strong spectral lines is the physical mechanism that should be increasingly exploited for quantitative explorations of the magnetism of the...
Scattering Polarization of the Ca II Infrared Triplet as Diagnostic of the Quiet Solar Chromosphere
In observations close to the edge of the solar disk, the Ca II infrared triplet has a scattering polarization pattern at the level of 10-3 in its two strongest...
