Cosmological Impact Of Population III Binaries
(2015-03)
We present the results of the stellar feedback from Population III (Pop III) binaries by employing improved, more realistic Pop III evolutionary stellar models. To facilitate a meaningful comparison, we consider a fixed ...
Detection Of High-Degree Prograde Sectoral Mode Sequences In The A-Star Kic 8054146?
(2013-08)
This paper examines the 46 frequencies found in the delta Sct star KIC 8054146 involving a frequency spacing of exactly 2.814 cycles day(-1) (32.57 mu Hz), which is also a dominant low-frequency peak near or equal to the ...
The Beta Pictoris Disk Imaged By Herschel PACS And SPIRE
(2010)
We obtained Herschel PACS and SPIRE images of the thermal emission of the debris disk around the A5V star beta Pic. The disk is well resolved in the PACS filters at 70, 100, and 160 mu m. The surface brightness profiles ...
Galaxy Evolution In A Complex Environment: A Multi-Wavelength Study Of HCG 7
(2010-11)
The environment where galaxies are found heavily influences their evolution. Close groupings, like the ones in the cores of galaxy clusters or compact groups, evolve in ways far more dramatic than their isolated counterparts. ...
SDSS J142625.71+575218.3: the First Pulsating White Dwarf With A Large Detectable Magnetic Field
(2008-08)
We report the discovery of a strong magnetic field in the unique pulsating carbon- atmosphere white dwarf SDSS J142625.71 + 575218.3. From spectra gathered at the MMT and Keck telescopes, we infer a surface field of B(s) ...
A Hubble Space Telescope Transit Light Curve For GJ 436B
(2008-08)
We present time series photometry for six partial transits of GJ 436b obtained with the Fine Guidance Sensor instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Our analysis of these data yields independent estimates of the ...
The First Supernova Explosions: Energetics, Feedback, And Chemical Enrichment
(2007-11)
We perform three-dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations in a realistic cosmological setting to investigate the expansion, feedback, and chemical enrichment properties of a 200M(circle dot) pair-instability ...
Gravitational Fragmentation In Turbulent Primordial Gas And The Initial Mass Function Of Population III Stars
(2011-02)
We report results from numerical simulations of star formation in the early universe that focus on the dynamical behavior of metal-free gas under different initial and environmental conditions. In particular we investigate ...
