Can winds driven by active galactic nuclei account for the extragalactic gamma-ray and neutrino backgrounds?
Ruo-Yu Liu, Kohta Murase, Susumu Inoue +2
Various observations are revealing the widespread occurrence of fast and powerful winds in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) that are distinct from relativistic jets, likely launched f…
Exclusion of standard gravitons by LIGO observation
Richard Lieu
Dyson (2013) argued that the extraordinarily large number of gravitons in a gravitational wave makes them impossible to be resolved as individual particles. While true, it is shown…

S. C. Hsu, S. J. Langendorf, K. C. Yates +13
We describe an experiment to form and characterize a section of a spherically imploding plasma liner by merging six supersonic plasma jets that are launched by newly designed conto…
Does light from steady sources bear any observable imprint of the dispersive intergalactic medium?
Richard Lieu, Lingze Duan
There has recently been some interest in the prospect of detecting ionized intergalactic baryons by examining the properties of incoherent light from background cosmological source…
All-sky search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the first Advanced LIGO observing run

Discrete stochastic charging of aggregate grains
Lorin S. Matthews, Babak Shotorban, Truell W. Hyde
Dust particles immersed in a plasma environment become charged through the collection of electrons and ions at random times, causing the dust charge to fluctuate about an equilibri…
First analysis of solar structures in 1.21 mm full-disc ALMA image of the Sun
R. Brajša, D. Sudar, A. O. Benz +11
Various solar features can be seen on maps of the Sun in the mm and sub-mm wavelength range. The recently installed Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is capable o…
Large scale density perturbations from a uniform distribution by wave transport
Richard Lieu
It has long been known that a uniform distribution of matter cannot produce a Poisson distribution of density fluctuations on very large scales by the motion of discrete…
Gravitational Waves and Gamma-rays from a Binary Neutron Star Merger: GW170817 and GRB 170817A

On 2017 August 17, the gravitational-wave event GW170817 was observed by the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors, and the gamma-ray burst (GRB) GRB 170817A was observed independently…
An Ordinary Short Gamma-Ray Burst with Extraordinary Implications: Fermi-GBM Detection of GRB 170817A
A. Goldstein, P. Veres, E. Burns +27
On August 17, 2017 at 12:41:06 UTC the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) detected and triggered on the short gamma-ray burst GRB 170817A. Approximately 1.7 s prior to this GRB, t…
Reconstruction of a Large-scale Pre-flare Coronal Current Sheet Associated with an Homologous X-shaped Flare
Chaowei Jiang, Xiaoli Yan, Xueshang Feng +4
As a fundamental magnetic structure in the solar corona, electric current sheets (CSs) can form either prior to or during solar flare, and they are essential for magnetic energy di…
The short GRB 170817A: Modelling the off-axis emission and implications on the ejecta magnetization
N. Fraija, F. De Colle, P. Veres +4
The short GRB 170817A, detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor, orbiting satellites and ground-based telescopes, was the electromagnetic counterpart of a gravitational-wave t…
Effects of Data Quality Vetoes on a Search for Compact Binary Coalescences in Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run

The first observing run of Advanced LIGO spanned 4 months, from September 12, 2015 to January 19, 2016, during which gravitational waves were directly detected from two binary blac…
Modeling the high-energy emission in GRB 110721A and implications on the early multiwavelength and polarimetric observations
N. Fraija, W. H. Lee, M. Araya +3
GRB 110721A was detected by the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor and the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi satellite and the Gamma-ray Burst Polarimeter onboard the IKAROS solar…
Shaken Snow Globes: Kinematic Tracers of the Multiphase Condensation Cascade in Massive Galaxies, Groups, and Clusters
M. Gaspari, M. McDonald, S. L. Hamer +16
We propose a novel method to constrain turbulence and bulk motions in massive galaxies, groups and clusters, exploring both simulations and observations. As emerged in the recent p…
