Bounds on the fine structure constant variability from FeII absorption lines in QSO spectra

Paolo Molaro, Dieter Reimers, Irina I. Agafonova +1

The Single Ion Differential alpha Measurement (SIDAM) method for measuring fine stucture variations (daa)and its figures of merit are illustrated together with the results produced…

UVES radial velocity accuracy from asteroid observations. Implications for the fine structure constant variability

P. Molaro, S. A. Levshakov, S. Monai +4

High resolution observations of the asteroids Iris and Juno have been performed by means of the UVES spectrograph at the ESO VLT to obtain the effective accurac y of the spectrogra…

Observations of the Prompt Gamma-Ray Emission of GRB 070125

Eric C. Bellm, Kevin Hurley, Valentin Pal'shin +17

The long, bright gamma-ray burst GRB 070125 was localized by the Interplanetary Network. We present light curves of the prompt gamma-ray emission as observed by Konus-WIND, RHESSI,…

Theory of cooling neutron stars versus observations

D. G. Yakovlev, O. Y. Gnedin, A. D. Kaminker +1

We review current state of neutron star cooling theory and discuss the prospects to constrain the equation of state, neutrino emission and superfluid properties of neutron star cor…

Coulomb tunneling for fusion reactions in dense matter: Path integral Monte Carlo versus mean field

A. I. Chugunov, H. E. DeWitt, D. G. Yakovlev

We compare Path Integral Monte Carlo calculations by Militzer and Pollock (Phys. Rev. B 71, 134303, 2005) of Coulomb tunneling in nuclear reactions in dense matter to semiclassical…

Thermal conductivity of ions in a neutron star envelope

A. I. Chugunov, P. Haensel

We analyze the thermal conductivity of ions (equivalent to the conductivity of phonons in crystalline matter) in a neutron star envelope. We calculate the ion/phonon thermal conduc…

Diffusive Radiation in One-dimensional Langmuir Turbulence

Gregory D. Fleishman, Igor N. Toptygin

We calculate spectra of radiation produced by a relativistic particle in the presence of one-dimensional Langmuir turbulence which might be generated by a streaming instability in…

Electron-muon heat conduction in neutron star cores via the exchange of transverse plasmons

P. S. Shternin, D. G. Yakovlev

We calculate the thermal conductivity of electrons and muons kappa_{e-mu} produced owing to electromagnetic interactions of charged particles in neutron star cores and show that th…

Rapid HeII->HeI recombination and radiation concerned with this process

E. E. Kholupenko, A. V. Ivanchik, D. A. Varshalovich

Recombination of the primordial helium plasma (HeII->HeI, ) is considered. This process has an effect on the CMBR anisotropy and CMBR spectrum distortion. In…

Updated Electron-Conduction Opacities: The Impact on Low-Mass Stellar Models

S. Cassisi, A. Y. Potekhin, A. Pietrinferni +2

We review the theory of electron-conduction opacity, a fundamental ingredient in the computation of low-mass stellar models; shortcomings and limitations of the existing calculatio…
