Coupling of Radial and Axial non-Radial Oscillations of Compact Stars: Gravitational Waves from first-order Differential Rotation
A. Passamonti, M. Bruni, L. Gualtieri +2
We investigate the non-linear coupling between radial and non-radial oscillations of static spherically symmetric neutron stars as a possible mechanism for the generation of gravit…
A Tunable Anomalous Hall Effect in a Non-Ferromagnetic System
J. Cumings, L. S. Moore, H. T. Chou +4
We measure the low-field Hall resistivity of a magnetically-doped two-dimensional electron gas as a function of temperature and electrically-gated carrier density. Comparing these…

For positive integers , we consider the arithmetic properties of quotients of Wronskians in certain normalizations of the Andrews-Gordon -series $$ \prod_{1\leq n…
The Giant X-ray Flare of GRB 050502B: Evidence for Late-Time Internal Engine Activity
A. D. Falcone, D. N. Burrows, D. Lazzati +28
Until recently, X-ray flares during the afterglow of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) were a rarely detected phenomenon, thus their nature is unclear. During the afterglow of GRB 050502B, t…
Swimming Efficiency of Bacterium Escherichia Coli
Suddhashil Chattopadhyay, Radu Moldovan, Chuck Yeung +1
We use in vivo measurements of swimming bacteria in an optical trap to determine fundamental properties of bacterial propulsion. In particular, we determine the propulsion matrix,…

We consider the time optimal stabilization problem for a nonlinear control system . Let be the minimum time needed to steer the system from the state $y\in\R^…
Detection of orbital and superhump periods in Nova V2574 Ophiuchi (2004)
Tae W. Kang, Alon Retter, Alex Liu +1
We present the results of 37 nights of CCD unfiltered photometry of nova V2574 Oph (2004) from 2004 and 2005. We find two periods of 0.14164 d (~3.40 h) and 0.14773 d (~3.55 h) in…
Radiatively Inefficient Accretion Flow in the Nucleus of NGC 1097
Rodrigo S. Nemmen, Thaisa Storchi-Bergmann, Feng Yuan +3
We present a model for the accretion flow around the supermassive black hole in the LINER nucleus of NGC 1097 which fits the optical to X-ray spectral energy distribution (SED). Th…
More on the Asymmetric Infinite Square Well: Energy Eigenstates with Zero Curvature
L. P. Gilbert, M. Belloni, M. A. Doncheski +1
We extend the standard treatment of the asymmetric infinite square well to include solutions that have zero curvature over part of the well. This type of solution, both within the…
Accurate Evolution of Orbiting Binary Black Holes
Peter Diener, Frank Herrmann, Denis Pollney +5
We present a detailed analysis of binary black hole evolutions in the last orbit, and demonstrate consistent and convergent results for the trajectories of the individual bodies. T…
The Origins of the Substellar Companion to GQ Lup
J. H. Debes, S. Sigurdsson
The recently discovered substellar companion to GQ Lup possibly represents a direct test of current planet formation theories. We examine the possible formation scenarios for the c…
The Flare Activity of SgrA*; New Coordinated mm to X-Ray Observations
A. Eckart, F. K. Baganoff, R. Schoedel +17
We report new simultaneous near-infrared/sub-millimeter/X-ray observations of the SgrA* counterpart associated with the massive 3-4x10**6 solar mass black hole at the Galactic Cent…
Swift and XMM observations of the dark GRB 050326
A. Moretti, A. De Luca, D. Malesani +30
We present Swift and XMM observations of GRB 050326, detected by Swift-BAT. The fluence was 7.7x10^-6 erg cm^-2 (20-150 keV), and its spectrum was hard, with a power law photon ind…
Image method solutions for free-particle wave packets
R. W. Robinett
Using analogs of familiar image methods in electrostatics and optics, we show how to construct closed form wave packet solutions of the two-dimensional free-particle Schrodinger eq…
GRB 050911: a black hole - neutron star merger or a naked GRB
K. L. Page, A. R. King, A. J. Levan +16
GRB 050911, discovered by the Swift Burst Alert Telescope, was not seen 4.6 hr later by the Swift X-ray Telescope, making it one of the very few X-ray non-detections of a Gamma-Ray…
