Massive Black Hole Recoil in High Resolution Hosts

Javiera Guedes, Jürg Diemand, Marcel Zemp +4

The final inspiral and coalescence of a black hole binary can produce highly beamed gravitational wave radiation. To conserve linear momentum, the black hole remnant can recoil wit…

The Graininess of Dark Matter Haloes

Marcel Zemp, Jürg Diemand, Michael Kuhlen +5

We use the recently completed one billion particle Via Lactea II LambdaCDM simulation to investigate local properties like density, mean velocity, velocity dispersion, anisotropy,…

CMBPol Mission Concept Study: Probing Inflation with CMB Polarization

Daniel Baumann, Mark G. Jackson, Peter Adshead +56

We summarize the utility of precise cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization measurements as probes of the physics of inflation. We focus on the prospects for using CMB measu…

On Gravitational Waves in Spacetimes with a Nonvanishing Cosmological Constant

J. Näf, P. Jetzer, M. Sereno

We study the effect of a cosmological constant on the propagation and detection of gravitational waves. To this purpose we investigate the linearised Einstein's equations with…

Fossil remnants of reionization in the halo of the Milky Way

P. Madau, M. Kuhlen, J. Diemand +4

Our recently completed one billion particle Via Lactea II simulation of a Milky Way-sized dark matter halo resolves over 50,000 gravitationally bound clumps orbiting today within t…

Forming Early-type Galaxies in Groups Prior to Cluster Assembly

Stefan J. Kautsch, Anthony H. Gonzalez, Christian A. Soto +3

We study a unique proto-cluster of galaxies, the supergroup SG1120-1202. We quantify the degree to which morphological transformation of cluster galaxies occurs prior to cluster as…
