Exo-Milankovitch Cycles I: Orbits and Rotation States
Russell Deitrick, Rory Barnes, Thomas R. Quinn +3
The obliquity of the Earth, which controls our seasons, varies by only ~2.5 degrees over ~40,000 years, and its eccentricity varies by only ~0.05 over 100,000 years. Nonetheless, t…
Stratigraphy of Aeolis Dorsa, Mars: stratigraphic context of the great river deposits
Edwin S. Kite, Alan D. Howard, Antoine S. Lucas +3
Unraveling the stratigraphic record is the key to understanding ancient climate and past climate changes on Mars. River deposits when placed in stratigraphic order could constrain…
Exomoon Habitability and Tidal Evolution in Low-Mass Star Systems
Rhett R. Zollinger, John C. Armstrong, René Heller
Discoveries of extrasolar planets in the habitable zone (HZ) of their parent star lead to questions about the habitability of massive moons orbiting planets in the HZ. Around low-m…
Entanglement isn't just for spin
Daniel V. Schroeder
Quantum entanglement occurs not just in discrete systems such as spins, but also in the spatial wave functions of systems with more than one degree of freedom. It is easy to introd…
The variational-relaxation algorithm for finding quantum bound states
Daniel V. Schroeder
I describe a simple algorithm for numerically finding the ground state and low-lying excited states of a quantum system. The algorithm is an adaptation of the relaxation method for…
