Shape Shifting Light Dark Matter Solitons
Dor Ben-Amotz
Dark matter consisting of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of ultralight particles forms solitons whose cored shape becomes increasingly cusped under the influence of a central poi…
Aging of colloidal gels in microgravity
Swagata S. Datta, Waad Paliwal, Eric R. Weeks
We study the aging of colloidal gels using light microscopy movies of depletion gels from the International Space Station. Under such microgravity conditions, we observe a slowdown…
Triplet Lifetime in Gaseous Argon
Michael Akashi-Ronquest, Amanda Bacon, Christopher Benson +27
MiniCLEAN is a single-phase liquid argon dark matter experiment. During the initial cooling phase, impurities within the cold gas (140 K) were monitored by measuring the scintil…
Spectacular HST observations of the Coma galaxy D100 and star formation in its ram pressure stripped tail
William J. Cramer, Jeffrey D. P. Kenney, Ming Sun +5
We present new HST F275W, F475W, and F814W imaging of the region of the Coma cluster around D100, a spiral galaxy with a remarkably long and narrow ( kpc) ram pressu…
The effect of ram pressure on the molecular gas of galaxies: three case studies in the Virgo cluster
Bumhyun Lee, Aeree Chung, Stephanie Tonnesen +6
We present 12CO (2-1) data of three Virgo spirals - NGC 4330, NGC 4402 and NGC 4522 obtained using the Submillimeter Array. These three galaxies show clear evidence of ram pressure…
HST Imaging of Dust Structures and Stars in the Ram Pressure Stripped Virgo Spirals NGC 4402 and NGC 4522: Stripped from the Outside In with Dense Cloud Decoupling
A. Abramson, J. Kenney, H. Crowl +1
We describe and constrain the origins of ISM structures likely created by ongoing ICM ram pressure stripping in two Virgo Cluster spirals, NGC 4522 and NGC 4402, using HST BVI imag…
