We construct $(p,q)$ string junction solutions suspended between both sphere and AdS giant gravitons in $AdS_5\times S^5$. Our results extend easily to more general half BPS geometries of LLM type. These carry angular momentum the directions worldvolume gravitons. argue that these are charged under a central extension supersymmetry algebra similar one has appeared works Beisert for ${\cal N}=4 ...

We investigate the effects of metallicity on the broad-band photometric colors of late-type giants, and make a comparison of synthetic colors with observed photometric properties of late-type giants over a wide range of effective temperatures (Teff = 3500− 4800K) and gravities (log g = 0.0− 2.5), at [M/H] = −1.0 and −2.0. The influence of metallicity on the synthetic photometric colors is small...

The ISOGAL mid-infrared survey of areas close to the Galactic Plane aims to determine their stellar content and its possible bearing on the history of the Galaxy. The NGC6522 and Sgr I Baade’s Windows of low obscuration towards the inner parts of the Bulge represent ideal places in which to calibrate and understand the ISOGAL colour-magnitude diagrams, which are more difficult to interpret in h...

Abstract The relatively recent decision of NASA and ESA to plan new missions the so-called Ice Giants, namely Uranus Neptune, has prompted a resurgence interest in experimental analysis aero-heating environment that probes entering such atmospheres would experience. In present study, arc-jet facilities, previously used simulate space flight Earth, Mars, Titan, are considered as relevant basis f...
