© The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2017. It has been recently suggested that hydrogen ingestion into the helium shell of massive stars could lead to high 13 C and 15 N excesses when the blast of a core collapse supernova (ccSN) passes through...

Enhanced violations of Leggett-Garg inequalities in an experimental three-level system (2017)
Journal Article
Wang, K., Emary, C., Zhan, X., Bian, Z., Li, J., & Xue, P. (2017). Enhanced violations of Leggett-Garg inequalities in an experimental three-level system. Optics express, 25(25), 31462-31470. https://doi.org/10.1364/OE.25.031462

Leggett-Garg inequalities are tests of macroscopic realism that can be violated by quantum mechanics. In this letter, we realise photonic Leggett-Garg tests on a three-level system and implement measurements that admit three distinct measurement outc...

The role of stellar radial motions in shaping galaxy surface brightness profiles (2017)
Journal Article
