A class of high-beta, large-aspect-ratio quasiaxisymmetric Palumbo-like configurations
The space of high-beta, approximately quasiaxisymmetric, large-aspect-ratio stellarator configurations is explored using an inverse coordinate approach and a quadratic polynomial ansatz for the flux function, following the method of Palumbo, extended by Hernandes and Clemente. This approach yields a system of nonlinear ODEs that, when solved, give equilibria exhibiting positive or negative triangularity, cusps, and (in an extreme limit) current singularities. It is shown that a cubic ansatz may…

IMEX-RB: a self-adaptive IMEX time integration scheme exploiting the RB method
In this work, we introduce a self-adaptive implicit-explicit (IMEX) time integration scheme, named IMEX-RB, for the numerical integration of systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), arising from spatial discretizations of partial differential equations (PDEs) by finite difference methods. Leveraging the Reduced Basis (RB) method, at each timestep we project the high-fidelity problem onto a suitable low-dimensional subspace and integrate its dynamics implicitly. Following the IMEX para…

The radio flare and multi-wavelength afterglow of the short GRB 231117A: energy injection from a violent shell collision
We present the early radio detection and multi-wavelength modeling of the short gamma-ray burst (GRB) 231117A at redshift $z=0.257$. The Australia Telescope Compact Array automatically triggered a 9-hour observation of GRB 231117A at 5.5 and 9 GHz following its detection by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory just 1.3 hours post-burst. Splitting this observation into 1-hour time bins, the early radio afterglow exhibited flaring, scintillating and plateau phases. The scintillation allowed us to p…
