Ground-based calibration and characterization of the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor Detectors

Elisabetta Bissaldi, Andreas von Kienlin, Giselher G. Lichti +18

One of the scientific objectives of NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is the study of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). The Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) was designed to detect a…

Gamma-Ray Burst afterglows: theory and observations

A. Panaitescu

I discuss some theoretical expectations for the synchrotron emission from a relativistic blast-wave interacting with the ambient medium, as a model for GRB afterglows, and compare…

Type I Planet Migration in Nearly Laminar Disks

H. Li, S. H. Lubow, S. Li +1

We describe 2D hydrodynamic simulations of the migration of low-mass planets () in nearly laminar disks (viscosity parameter ) over timescales of se…

Complete nucleosynthesis calculations for low-mass stars from NuGrid

Marco Pignatari, Falk Herwig, Michael Bennett +8

Many nucleosynthesis and mixing processes of low-mass stars as they evolve from the Main Sequence to the thermal-pulse Asymptotic Giant Branch phase (TP-AGB) are well understood (a…

Spatial Distribution of Nucleosynthesis Products in Cassiopeia A: Comparison Between Observations and 3D Explosion Models

Patrick Young, Carola I. Ellinger, Francis X. Timmes +10

We examine observed heavy element abundances in the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant as a constraint on the nature of the Cas A supernova. We compare bulk abundances from 1D and 3D e…

Nucleosynthetic Yields from "Collapsars"

Gabriel Rockefeller, Christopher L. Fryer, Patrick Young +8

The "collapsar" engine for gamma-ray bursts invokes as its energy source the failure of a normal supernova and the formation of a black hole. Here we present the results of the fir…
