Low energy core collapse supernovae in the frame of the jittering jets explosion mechanism
Roni Anna Gofman, Noam Soker
We relate the pre-explosion binding energy of the ejecta of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) of stars with masses in the lower range of CCSNe and the location of the convection zon…
Kinematics of filaments in cooling flow clusters and heating by mixing
Shlomi Hillel, Noam Soker
We compare a recent study of the kinematics of optical filaments in three cooling flow clusters of galaxies with previous numerical simulations of jet-inflated hot bubbles, and con…
Supernovae Ia in 2019 (review): a rising demand for spherical explosions
Noam Soker
I review new studies of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from 2019, and use these to improve the comparison between the five binary SN Ia scenarios. New low polarisation measurements so…
Enhanced mass-loss rate evolution of stars with and missing optically-observed type II core-collapse supernovae
Roni Anna Gofman, Naomi Gluck, Noam Soker
We evolve stellar models with zero-age main sequence (ZAMS) mass of under the assumption that they experience an enhanced mass-loss rate when cros…
Jet-driven active galactic nucleus feedback in galaxy formation before black hole formation
Ealeal Bear, Noam Soker
We propose a scenario where during galaxy formation an active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback mechanism starts before the formation of a supermassive black hole (SMBH). The superma…
Controlling polarization of attosecond pulses with plasmonic-enhanced bichromatic counter-rotating circularly polarised fields
Irfana N. Ansari, Cornelia Hofmann, Lukas Medišauskas +3
The use of bichromatic counter-rotating laser field is known to generate high-order harmonics with non-zero ellipticity. By combining such laser field with a plasmonic-enhanced spa…
Type IIb supernovae by the grazing envelope evolution
Binyamin Naiman, Efrat Sabach, Avishai Gilkis +1
We simulate the evolution of binary systems with a massive primary star of 15Mo where we introduce an enhanced mass loss due to jets that the secondary star might launch, and find…
Inclined jets inside a common envelope of a triple stellar system
Ron Schreier, Shlomi Hillel, Noam Soker
We conduct a three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulation to study the interaction of two opposite inclined jets inside the envelope of a giant star, and find that the jets induce m…
A scenario for ultra-diffuse satellite galaxies with low velocity dispersions: the case of [KKS 2000]04
Adi Nusser
A scenario for achieving a low velocity dispersion for the galaxy [KKS 2000]04 (aka NGC 1052-DF2) and similar galaxies is presented. A progenitor halo corresponding to a halo…
Emission peaks in the light curve of core collapse supernovae by late jets
Noa Kaplan, Noam Soker
We build a toy model where the central object, i.e., a newly born neutron star or a black hole, launches jets at late times and show that these jets might account for peaks in the…
Indications for Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction at the Pd/Fe Interface Studied by \textit{In Situ} Polarized Neutron Reflectometry
Sina Mayr, Jingfan Ye, Jochen Stahn +7
Using \textit{in situ} polarized neutron reflectometry, the depth resolved evolution of the magnetism and structure in a Pd/Fe/Pd trilayer thin-film is measured during growth. The…
Generalized Lorentz reciprocal theorem in complex fluids and in non-isothermal systems
Xinpeng Xu, Tiezheng Qian
The classical Lorentz reciprocal theorem (LRT) was originally derived for slow viscous flows of incompressible Newtonian fluids under the isothermal condition. In the present work,…
Some statistics about Tropical Sandpile Model
Nikita Kalinin, Yulieth Prieto
Tropical sandpile model (or linearized sandpile model) is the only known continuous geometric model exhibiting self-organised criticality. This model represents the scaling limit b…
Common envelope to explosion delay time of type Ia supernovae
Noam Soker
I study the rate of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) within about a million years after the assumed common envelope evolution (CEE) that forms the progenitors of these SNe Ia, and find…
The strongly interacting binary scenarios of the enigmatic supernova iPTF14hls
Roni Anna Gofman, Noam Soker
We argue that some scenarios for the enigmatic supernova (SN) iPTF14hls and its progenitor require a strong binary interaction. We examine scenarios that attribute the extra power…
Intermediate Luminosity Optical Transients (ILOTs) from merging giants
Ran Segev, Efrat Sabach, Noam Soker
We suggest and study the formation of intermediate luminosity optical transients (ILOTs) from the merger of two cool giant stars. For the two stars to merge when both are in their…
Type IIb supernova progenitors by fatal common envelope evolution
Noam Lohev, Efrat Sabach, Avishai Gilkis +1
From stellar evolution simulations (using MESA) we conclude that the fatal common envelope evolution (CEE) channel for the formation of Type IIb core collapse supernova (SN IIb) pr…
Amplifying magnetic fields of a newly born neutron star by stochastic angular momentum accretion in core collapse supernovae
Noam Soker
I present a novel mechanism to boost magnetic field amplification of newly born neutron stars in core collapse supernovae. In this mechanism, that operates in the jittering jets ex…
Defect removal by solvent vapor annealing in thin films of lamellar diblock copolymers
Xinpeng Xu, Xingkun Man, Masao Doi +2
Solvent vapor annealing (SVA) is known to be a simple, low-cost and highly efficient technique to produce defect-free diblock copolymer (BCP) thin films. Not only can the solvent w…
Explaining the early excess emission of the Type Ia supernova 2018oh by the interaction of the ejecta with disk-originated matter (DOM)
Naveh Levanon, Noam Soker
We explain the early excess emission of the Type Ia supernova 2018oh by an interaction of the supernova ejecta with disk-originated matter (DOM). Such DOM can form in the merger pr…
Constraining Type Ia Supernova Asymmetry with the Gamma-Ray Escape Timescale
Naveh Levanon, Noam Soker
We calculate the effects of an asymmetric distribution in Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) ejecta on the gamma-ray escape timescale () that characterizes the late…
