Precision Mass Measurements of 129-131Cd and Their Impact on Stellar Nucleosynthesis via the Rapid Neutron Capture Process
D. Atanasov, P. Ascher, K. Blaum +17
Masses adjacent to the classical waiting-point nuclide 130Cd have been measured by using the Penning- trap spectrometer ISOLTRAP at ISOLDE/CERN. We find a significant deviation of…
The treatment of mixing in core helium burning models -- II. Constraints from cluster star counts
Thomas Constantino, Simon W. Campbell, John C. Lattanzio +1
The treatment of convective boundaries during core helium burning is a fundamental problem in stellar evolution calculations. In Paper~I we showed that new asteroseismic observatio…
Towards 21st Century Stellar Models: Star Clusters, Supercomputing, and Asteroseismology
S. W. Campbell, T. N. Constantino, V. D'Orazi +8
Stellar models provide a vital basis for many aspects of astronomy and astrophysics. Recent advances in observational astronomy -- through asteroseismology, precision photometry, h…
A Jacobian-free Newton-Krylov method for time-implicit multidimensional hydrodynamics
Maxime Viallet, Tom Goffrey, Isabelle Baraffe +5
This work is a continuation of our efforts to develop an efficient implicit solver for multidimensional hydrodynamics for the purpose of studying important physical processes in st…
The XXL Survey IV. Mass-temperature relation of the bright cluster sample
Maggie Lieu, Graham P. Smith, Paul A. Giles +18
The XXL survey is the largest survey carried out by XMM-Newton. Covering an area of 50deg, the survey contains galaxy clusters out to a redshift 2 and to an X-r…
Tomography of the Galactic free electron density with the Square Kilometer Array
Maksim Greiner, Dominic H. F. M. Schnitzeler, Torsten A. Ensslin
We present a new algorithm to reconstruct the Galactic free electron density from pulsar dispersion measures. The algorithm performs a nonparametric tomography for a density field…
Kinematic Dynamo, Supersymmetry Breaking, and Chaos
Igor V. Ovchinnikov, Torsten Enßlin
The kinematic dynamo (KD) describes the growth of magnetic fields generated by the flow of a conducting medium in the limit of vanishing backaction of the fields onto the flow. The…
Structures and components in galaxy clusters: observations and models
A. M. Bykov, E. M. Churazov, C. Ferrari +5
Clusters of galaxies are the largest gravitationally bounded structures in the Universe dominated by dark matter. We review the observational appearance and physical models of plas…
Quantitative spectral analysis of the sdB star HD 188112: a helium-core white dwarf progenitor
M. Latour, U. Heber, A. Irrgang +7
HD 188112 is a bright (V = 10.2 mag) hot subdwarf B (sdB) star with a mass too low to ignite core helium burning and is therefore considered as a pre-extremely low mass (ELM) white…
Searching for swept-up Hydrogen and Helium in the late-time spectra of 11 nearby Type Ia supernovae
Kate Maguire, Stefan Taubenberger, Mark Sullivan +1
The direct detection of a stellar system that explodes as a Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) has not yet been successful. Various indirect methods have been used to investigate SN Ia prog…
Exploring the spectroscopic diversity of type Ia supernovae with DRACULA: a machine learning approach
Michele Sasdelli, E. E. O. Ishida, R. Vilalta +8
The existence of multiple subclasses of type Ia supernovae (SNeIa) has been the subject of great debate in the last decade. One major challenge inevitably met when trying to infer…
Explosion and final state of an unstable Reissner-Nordstrom black hole
Nicolas Sanchis-Gual, Juan Carlos Degollado, Pedro J. Montero +2
A Reissner-Nordström black hole (BH) is superradiantly unstable against spherical perturbations of a charged scalar field, enclosed in a cavity, with frequency lower than a critica…
Lagrangian bias of generic large-scale structure tracers
Titouan Lazeyras, Marcello Musso, Vincent Desjacques
The dark matter halos that host galaxies and clusters form out of initial high-density patches, providing a biased tracer of the linear matter density field. In the simplest local…
The discovery of lensed radio and X-ray sources behind the Frontier Fields cluster MACS J0717.5+3745 with the JVLA and Chandra
R. J. van Weeren, G. A. Ogrean, C. Jones +24
We report on high-resolution JVLA and Chandra observations of the HST Frontier Cluster MACS J0717.5+3745. MACS J0717.5+3745 offers the largest contiguous magnified area of any know…
Shear mixing in stellar radiative zones - II. Robustness of numerical simulations
Vincent Prat, Jérôme Guilet, Maxime Viallet +1
Recent numerical simulations suggest that the model by Zahn (1992, A&A, 265, 115) for the turbulent mixing of chemical elements due to differential rotation in stellar radiative zo…
On the stellar halo metallicity profile of Milky Way-like galaxies in the Auriga simulations
Antonela Monachesi, Facundo A. Gomez, Robert J. J. Grand +5
A recent observational study of haloes of nearby Milky Way-like galaxies shows that only half (four out of eight) of the current sample exhibits strong negative metallicity ([Fe/H]…
Vertical disc heating in Milky Way-sized galaxies in a cosmological context
Robert J. J. Grand, Volker Springel, Facundo A. Gómez +4
Vertically extended, high velocity dispersion stellar distributions appear to be a ubiquitous feature of disc galaxies, and both internal and external mechanisms have been proposed…
Radio observations of a sample of broad-lined type Ic supernovae discovered by PTF/iPTF: A search for relativistic explosions
A. Corsi, A. Gal-Yam, S. R. Kulkarni +15
Long duration gamma-ray bursts are a rare subclass of stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae that launch collimated relativistic outflows (jets). All gamma-ray-burst-associated…
