Non-Abelian plasma instabilities: SU(3) vs. SU(2)

Andreas Ipp, Anton Rebhan, Michael Strickland

We present the first 3+1 dimensional simulations of non-Abelian plasma instabilities in gauge-covariant Boltzmann-Vlasov equations for the QCD gauge group SU(3) as well as for SU(4…

Non-boost-invariant anisotropic dynamics

Mauricio Martinez, Michael Strickland

We study the non-boost-invariant evolution of a quark-gluon plasma subject to large early-time momentum-space anisotropies. Rather than using the canonical hydrodynamical expansion…

Quark core impact on hybrid star cooling

R. Negreiros, V. Dexheimer, S. Schramm

In this paper we investigate the thermal evolution of hybrid stars, objects composed of a quark matter core, enveloped by ordinary hadronic matter. Our purpose is to investigate ho…

Hard-thermal-loop QCD Thermodynamics

Michael Strickland, Jens O. Andersen, Lars E. Leganger +1

Naively resummed perturbative approximations to the thermodynamic functions of QCD do not converge at phenomenologically relevant temperatures. Here we review recent results of a t…

NNLO hard-thermal-loop thermodynamics for QCD

Jens O. Andersen, Lars E. Leganger, Michael Strickland +1

We calculate the thermodynamic functions of a quark-gluon plasma for general N_c and N_f to three-loop order using hard-thermal-loop perturbation theory. At this order, all the ult…

Abundances of Galactic Anticenter Planetary Nebulae and the Oxygen Abundance Gradient in the Galactic Disk

R. B. C. Henry, Karen B. Kwitter, Anne E. Jaskot +3

We have obtained spectrophotometric observations of 41 anticenter planetary nebulae (PNe) located in the disk of the Milky Way. Electron temperatures and densities, as well as chem…
