Comment: Final version

I describe recent progress in terms of 3D hydrodynamical model atmospheres and 3D line formation and their applications to stellar abundance analyses of late-type stars. Such 3D studies remove the free parameters inherent in classical 1D investigations (mixing length pa...

We study the model of close-packed dimers on planar lattices belonging to the family of modified rectangular (MR) fractals, whose members are enumerated by an integer $p\geq 2$, as well as on the non-planar 4-simplex fractal lattice. By applying an exact recurrence enum...

Summary. An extension of reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) theory provides a new framework for modeling functional regression models with functional responses. The approach only presumes a general nonlinear regression structure as opposed to previously studied lin...

We study electron tunneling through two small ferromagnetic dots. Quantum charge fluctuations and interdot coupling make each Coulomb peak of the conductance at zero interdot coupling split across. The interdot tunnel coupling is determined by the relative orientation o...

International audience; In this paper, we provide the $O(\varepsilon)$ corrections to the hydrodynamic model derived by Degond \& Motsch from a kinetic version of the model by Vicsek \& coauthors describing flocking biological agents. The parameter $\varepsilon$ stands ...
