Evaporating liquid layers are found in many areas of science and technology, so their practical significance is rather high. Examples include evaporative cooling and numerous coating applications. In the latter a substrate is coated with a layer of solution which, upon the evaporation of solvent, leaves a layer of solute on the surface of the substrate. The main difference between various coati...

We report an X-ray study of the composite supernova remnant G327.1–1.1, with particular emphasis on its thermal emission. By virtue of a combined spatial and spectral analysis, we have been able to model the X-ray emission of the remnant as a sum of two components: a non-thermal component, due to the pulsar nebula and the pulsar itself, and a thermal component, of which we have analysed spectru...

Abstract Affleck-Dine baryogenesis in models where the gravitino is both the lightest supersymmetric particle and the dark matter candidate is investigated. For a high enough reheating temperature to produce sufficient gravitinos by thermal processes, the observed baryon asymmetry can be explained by Affleck-Dine baryogenesis as well as thermal leptogenesis. On the other hand, if the reheating ...
