From billiards to thermodynamics
Timothy Chumley, Scott Cook, Renato Feres
We explore some beginning steps in stochastic thermodynamics of billiard-like mechanical systems by introducing extremely simple and explicit random mechanical processes capable of…
KELT-2Ab: A Hot Jupiter Transiting the Bright (V=8.77) Primary Star of a Binary System
Thomas G. Beatty, Joshua Pepper, Robert J. Siverd +28
We report the discovery of KELT-2Ab, a hot Jupiter transiting the bright (V=8.77) primary star of the HD 42176 binary system. The host is a slightly evolved late F-star likely in t…
A Possible Detection of Occultation by a Proto-planetary Clump in GM Cephei
The YETI Collaboration, W. P. Chen, S. C. -L. Hu +41
GM Cep in the young (~4 Myr) open cluster Trumpler 37 has been known to be an abrupt variable and to have a circumstellar disk with very active accretion. Our monitoring observatio…
Optical-cavity tests of higher-order Lorentz violation
Matthew Mewes
The effects of Lorentz-violating operators of nonrenormalizable dimension in optical resonate cavities are studied. Optical-frequency experiments are shown to provide sensitivity t…
