Oxygen Isotope Ratios in Hydrogen-Deficient Carbon Stars: A Correlation with Effective Temperature and Implications for White Dwarf Merger Outcomes

Advait Mehla, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Viraj Karambelkar +5

Hydrogen-deficient Carbon (HdC) stars are a class of supergiants with anomalous chemical compositions, suggesting that they are remnants of CO-He white dwarf (WD) mergers. This cla…

Investigating late-stage particle production in pp collisions with Balance Functions

Alexandru Manea, Claude Pruneau, Diana Catalina Brandibur +4

Balance functions have been regarded in the past as a method of investigating the late-stage hadronization found in the presence of a strongly-coupled medium. They are also used to…

Gravitational-Wave Parameter Estimation in non-Gaussian noise using Score-Based Likelihood Characterization

Ronan Legin, Maximiliano Isi, Kaze W. K. Wong +2

Gravitational-wave (GW) parameter estimation typically assumes that instrumental noise is Gaussian and stationary. Obvious departures from this idealization are typically handled o…

The Density and Ionization Profile of Optically Dark and High Redshift GRBs Probed by X-ray Absorption

Eka Puspita Arumaningtyas, Hasan Al Rasyid, Maria Giovanna Dainotti +1

The X-ray column density (NHX) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can probe the local environment of their progenitors over a wide redshift range. Previous work has suggested an increasing…

The NuSTAR Local AGN Distribution Survey (NuLANDS) I: Towards a Truly Representative Column Density Distribution in the Local Universe

Peter G. Boorman, Poshak Gandhi, Johannes Buchner +33

Hard X-ray-selected samples of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) provide one of the cleanest views of supermassive black hole accretion, but are biased against objects obscured by Compt…

SOFIA/EXES observations of warm H2 at high spectral resolution: II. IC443C, NGC2071, and 3C391

David A. Neufeld, Curtis DeWitt, Pierre Lesaffre +4

Using the EXES instrument on SOFIA, we have obtained velocity-resolved spectra of several pure rotational lines of H2 toward shocked molecular gas within three Galactic sources: th…

A probe of the maximum energetics of fast radio bursts through a prolific repeating source

O. S. Ould-Boukattine, P. Chawla, J. W. T. Hessels +12

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are sufficiently energetic to be detectable from luminosity distances up to at least seven billion parsecs (redshift ). Probing the maximum energies…

RHINO: A large horn antenna for detecting the 21cm global signal

Philip Bull, Ahmed El-Makadema, Hugh Garsden +11

The sky-averaged brightness temperature of the 21cm line from neutral hydrogen provides a sensitive probe of the thermal state of the intergalactic medium, particularly before and…

Parameter constraints for accreting millisecond pulsars with synthetic NICER data

Bas Dorsman, Tuomo Salmi, Anna L. Watts +10

Pulse profile modelling (PPM) is a technique for inferring mass, radius and hotspot properties of millisecond pulsars. PPM is now regularly used for analysis of rotation-powered mi…

Bayesian evidence for flux scale errors in Galactic synchrotron maps

Michael J. Wilensky, Melis O. Irfan, Philip Bull

The 408 MHz Haslam map is widely used as a low-frequency anchor for the intensity and morphology of Galactic synchrotron emission. Multi-frequency, multi-experiment fits show evide…
