TL;DR: In this paper, spectroscopic detection of silicate emission at 10 and 18 mm in five PG quasars was reported, the first detection of these two features in galaxies outside the Local Group.
Abstract: We report the spectroscopic detection of silicate emission at 10 and 18 mm in five PG quasars, the first detection of these two features in galaxies outside the Local Group. This finding is consistent with the unification model for active galactic nuclei (AGNs), which predicts that an AGN torus seen pole-on should show a silicate emission feature in the mid-infrared. The strengths of the detected silicate emission features range from 0.12 to 1.25 times the continuum at 10 mu m and from 0.20 to 0.79 times the continuum at 18 mu m. The silicate grain temperatures inferred from the ratio of 18 mu m to 10 mm silicate features under the assumption of optically thin emission range from 140 to 220 K.

TL;DR: A novel method based on principles from linear programming and, in particular, on primal-dual strategies that generalizes prior state-of-the-art methods and can be used for efficiently minimizing NP-hard problems with complex pair-wise potential functions.

TL;DR: In this article, the embedding of the SM hypercharge into an orientifold gauge group is studied, and possible embeddings are classified, and a systematic construction of bottom-up configurations and top-down orientiferold vacua is achieved, solving the tadpole conditions in the context of Gepner orientifolds.

TL;DR: In this article, Popescu et al. presented new calculations of the attenuation of stellar light from spiral galaxies using geometries for stars and dust which can reproduce the entire spectral energy distribution from the ultraviolet (UV) to the Far-infrared (FIR)/submillimeter (submm) and can also account for the surface brightness distribution in both the optical/NIR (NIR) and FIR/submm).
Abstract: We present new calculations of the attenuation of stellar light from spiral galaxies using geometries for stars and dust which can reproduce the entire spectral energy distribution from the ultraviolet (UV) to the Far-infrared (FIR)/submillimeter (submm) and can also account for the surface brightness distribution in both the optical/Near-infrared (NIR) and FIR/submm. The calculations are based on the model of Popescu et al. (2000), which incorporates a dustless stellar bulge, a disk of old stars with associated diffuse dust, a thin disk of young stars with associated diffuse dust, and a clumpy dust component associated with star-forming regions in the thin disk. The attenuations, which incorporate the effects of multiple anisotropic scattering, are derived separately for each stellar component, and presented in the form of easily accessible polynomial fits as a function of inclination, for a grid in optical depth and wavelength. The wavelength range considered is between 912A and 2.2 μm, sampled such that attenuation can be conveniently calculated both for the standard optical bands and for the bands covered by GALEX. The attenuation characteristics of the individual stellar components show marked differences between each other. A general formula is given for the calculation of composite attenuation, valid for any combination of the bulge-to-disk ratio and amount of clumpiness. As an example, we show how the optical depth derived from the variation of attenuation with inclination depends on the bulge-to-disk ratio. Finally, a recipe is given for a self-consistent determination of the optical depth from the Hα/Hβ line ratio.
