Core-Collapse Supernovae and Neutron Star Kicks
Dong Lai
Recent observations have revealed many new puzzles related to core-collapse supernovae, including the formation of magnetars and black holes and their possible GRB connections. We…
Magnetically Driven Warping and Precession of Accretion Disks: Implications for "Exotic" Stellar Variabilities
Dong Lai
The inner region of the accretion disk around a magnetized star is subjected to magnetic torques that induce warping and precession of the disk. These torques arise from interactio…
Molecular gas in the intergalactic medium of Stephan's Quintet
Ute Lisenfeld, Stephane Leon, Jonathan Braine +3
Stephan's Quintet (SQ) is a Hickson Compact Group well known for its complex dynamical and star formation history and its rich intergalactic medium (IGM). In order to study the ext…
Fast Infrared Sub-Flares From GRS 1915+105
David M. Rothstein, Stephen S. Eikenberry
We report the discovery of fast (~ 100 sec) 2.2 micron flares from the microquasar GRS 1915+105, which are superimposed on longer (~ 30 min), brighter flares corresponding to episo…
