Diffuse gamma-ray emission from the Galactic center and implications of its past activities

Yutaka Fujita, Shigeo S. Kimura, Kohta Murase

It has been indicated that low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs) are accelerating high-energy cosmic-ray (CR) protons in their radiatively inefficient accretion flows (RIA…

Late time cooling of neutron star transients and the physics of the inner crust

Alex Deibel, Andrew Cumming, Edward F. Brown +1

An accretion outburst onto a neutron star transient heats the neutron star's crust out of thermal equilibrium with the core. After the outburst the crust thermally relaxes toward e…

High-Energy Neutrino Emission from White Dwarf Mergers

Di Xiao, Peter Mészáros, Kohta Murase +1

The merger of two white dwarfs is expected to result in a central fast rotating core surrounded by a debris disk, in which magnetorotational instabilities give rise to a hot magnet…

Identifying Ultrahigh-Energy Cosmic-Ray Accelerators with Future Ultrahigh-Energy Neutrino Detectors

Ke Fang, Kumiko Kotera, M. Coleman Miller +2

The detection of ultrahigh-energy (UHE) neutrino sources would contribute significantly to solving the decades-old mystery of the origin of the highest-energy cosmic rays. We inves…

The thermal state of KS 1731-260 after 14.5 years in quiescence

Rachael L. Merritt, Edward M. Cackett, Edward F. Brown +7

Crustal cooling of accretion-heated neutron stars provides insight into the stellar interior of neutron stars. The neutron star X-ray transient, KS~1731260, was in outburst for…

The Effect of Pair-Instability Mass Loss on Black Hole Mergers

K. Belczynski, A. Heger, W. Gladysz +9

Mergers of two stellar origin black holes are a prime source of gravitational waves and are under intensive investigations. One crucial ingredient in their modeling has so far been…
