Hamiltonian Analysis of Poincaré Gauge Theory: Higher Spin Modes

H. J. Yo, J. M. Nester

We examine several higher spin modes of the Poincaré gauge theory (PGT) of gravity using the Hamiltonian analysis. The appearance of certain undesirable effects due to non-linear c…

Heating and Ionization of X-Winds

H. Shang, A. E. Glassgold, F. H. Shu +1

In order to compare the x-wind with observations, one needs to be able to calculate its thermal and ionization properties. We formulate the physical basis for the streamline-by-str…

A numerical testbed for singularity excision in moving black hole spacetimes

H. J. Yo, T. W. Baumgarte, S. L. Shapiro

We evolve a scalar field in a fixed Kerr-Schild background geometry to test simple -dimensional algorithms for singularity excision. We compare both centered and upwind sche…

Positional Coincidence between the High-latitude Steady Unidentified Gamma-ray Sources and Possibly Merging Clusters of Galaxies

Wataru Kawasaki, Tomonori Totani

We report an evidence for the first time that merging clusters of galaxies are a promising candidate for the origin of high galactic-latitude, steady unidentified EGRET gamma-ray s…
