Experiments towards a neutron target for measurements in inverse kinematics
S. F. Dellmann, C. M. Harrington, O. R. Cantrell +28
Neutron-induced reactions play an important role in fundamental nuclear physics, nuclear astrophysics, and applications. In the case of reactions on rare isotopes, there are limite…
Exotic aspherical 4-manifolds
Michael Davis, Kyle Hayden, Jingyin Huang +2
We construct closed, aspherical, smooth 4-manifolds that are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic. These provide counterexamples to a smooth analog of the Borel conjecture in dimensi…
Fostering better coding practices for data scientists
Randall Pruim, Maria-Cristiana Gîrjău, Nicholas J. Horton
Many data science students and practitioners don't see the value in making time to learn and adopt good coding practices as long as the code "works". However, code standards are an…
A Bayesian Analysis of Physical Parameters for 783 Kepler (Near-)Contact Binaries: Extreme-Mass-Ratio Systems and a New Mass Ratio versus Period Lower Limit
Henry A. Kobulnicky, Lawrence A. Molnar, Evan M. Cook +1
Contact binary star systems represent the long-lived penultimate phase of binary evolution. Population statistics of their physical parameters inform understanding of binary evolut…
A Tale of Two Type Ia Supernovae: The fast-declining siblings SNe 2015bo and 1997cn
W. B. Hoogendam, C. Ashall, L. Galbany +18
We present optical and near-infrared photometric and spectroscopic observations of the fast-declining Type Ia Supernova (SN) 2015bo. SN 2015bo is under-luminous (M = -17.67 $\p…
A Careful Reassessment of Globular Cluster Multiple Population Radial Distributions with Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Johnson-Cousins Broadband Photometry
Willem B. Hoogendam, Jason P. Smolinski
Inconsistencies regarding the nature of globular cluster multiple population radial distributions is a matter for concern given their role in testing or validating cluster dynamica…
