Description
The amplitude of the gravitational waves emitted by a binary system of arbitrary eccentricity and orientation is developed in Fourier-Bessel series. Periastron advance is also considered. We discuss the influence of the orbital parameters in the spectrum of the wave amplitude. The dominant harmonic in the spectra gives a good estimation of the eccentricity. Periastron advance modulates the shape of the gravitational radiation field, splitting the basical harmonics. The analytical formulae presented here are useful for studying the contribution of binary systems to the gravitational radiation background.

    Characterisation at Cryogenic Temperatures of an Attenuator for an Application of Astrophysical Instrumentation with MKIDs
    The use of non-cryogenic certified commercial electronics for cryogenic applications may be attractive due to their cost and availability, but it also carries risks related to reliability, performance and thermal compatibility. The decision to use commercial components that are not certified for cryogenics instead of components specifically

    Blue supergiants as a progenitor of intermediate-luminosity red transients
    The current perspective about the explosions of massive hydrogen-rich blue supergiants is that they resemble SN 1987A. These so-called peculiar Type II supernovae, however, are one of the rarest types of supernovae and may not hence be the fate of all blue supergiants. In this work, we explore other explosion scenarios for blue supergiants. We

    We assess the capabilities of the LiteBIRD mission to map the hot gas distribution in the Universe through the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect. Our analysis relies on comprehensive simulations incorporating various sources of Galactic and extragalactic foreground emission, while accounting for the specific instrumental characteristics of the
