Constraining Gravitational and Cosmological Parameters with Astrophysical Data
Yi Mao
We use astrophysical data to shed light on fundamental physics by constraining parametrized theoretical cosmological and gravitational models. Gravitational parameters are those co…
The Self-Gravity of Pressure in Neutron Stars
Josiah Schwab, Scott A. Hughes, Saul Rappaport
Following an earlier analysis which examined the effect of the self-gravity of pressure on big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN), we explore the effect of pressure's self-gravity on the s…
The PHOBOS Glauber Monte Carlo
B. Alver, M. Baker, C. Loizides +1
``Glauber'' models are used to calculate geometric quantities in the initial state of heavy ion collisions, such as impact parameter, number of participating nucleons and initial e…
Dehn surgeries that yield fibred --manifolds
Yi Ni
We study Dehn surgeries on null-homotopic knots that yield fibred --manifolds when an additional (but natural) homological restriction is imposed. The major tool used is Gabai's…
Efficiency Loss in a Network Resource Allocation Game: The Case of Elastic Supply
Ramesh Johari, Shie Mannor, John N. Tsitsiklis
We consider a resource allocation problem where individual users wish to send data across a network to maximize their utility, and a cost is incurred at each link that depends on t…
Dynamics of channel incision in a granular bed driven by subsurface water flow
A. E. Lobkovsky, B. Smith, A. Kudrolli +1
We propose a dynamical model for the erosive growth of a channel in a granular medium driven by subsurface water flow. The model is inferred from experimental data acquired with a…
