A halo model approach for mock catalogs of time-variable strong gravitational lenses by Katsuya T. Abe, Masamune Oguri, Simon Birrer, Narayan Khadka, Philip J. Marshall, Cameron Lemon, Anupreeta More, the LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration

“…In contrast, our mock catalogs with the Chabrier IMF predict a significantly smaller number of lensed QSOs compared with observations, which adds evidence that the stellar IMF of massive galaxies is Salpeter-like. Our python code SL-Hammocks as well as the mock catalogs are made available online. …”

New Empirical Formulae for some (p,γ) Reactions of Astrophysical S-factor and Thermonuclear Reaction Rates by Mohammed Issa Hussein

“…The study utilized weighted averages of cross sections in millibarn for (p,γ) reactions of 74Ge, 88Sr, 89Y, 90Zr, and 107Ag medium target elements from the EXFOR nuclear data library and compares them with evaluated from TALYS 1.95 nuclear model code. These averages were employed to develop empirical formulas for the astrophysical S-factor, covering proton energies up to 5 MeV, and thermonuclear reaction rates up to 20×109 K T9 (T9 is the temperature in units of 109K). …”
