Flickering of 1.3 cm Sources in Sgr B2: Towards a Solution to the Ultracompact HII Region Lifetime Problem
C. G. De Pree, T. Peters, M. -M. Mac Low +6
Accretion flows onto massive stars must transfer mass so quickly that they are themselves gravitationally unstable, forming dense clumps and filaments. These density perturbations…
The face-on disk of MAXI J1836-194
T. D. Russell, R. Soria, C. Motch +5
We present Very Large Telescope optical spectra of the black hole candidate X-ray binary MAXI J1836-194 at the onset of its 2011 outburst. Although the spectrum was taken at the be…
Reflection resonances in surface-disordered waveguides: strong higher-order effects of the disorder
J. Doppler, J. A. Méndez-Bermúdez, J. Feist +5
We study coherent wave scattering through waveguides with a step-like surface disorder and find distinct enhancements in the reflection coefficients at well-defined resonance value…
Ideas for Advancing Code Sharing (A Different Kind of Hack Day)
Peter Teuben, Alice Allen, Bruce Berriman +8
How do we as a community encourage the reuse of software for telescope operations, data processing, and calibration? How can we support making codes used in research available for…
Spitzer observations of a circumstellar nebula around the candidate Luminous Blue Variable MWC 930
L. Cerrigone, G. Umana, C. S. Buemi +4
MWC 930 is a star just ~2° above the Galactic plane whose nature is not clear and that has not been studied in detail so far. While a post-Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) classificat…
The water abundance behind interstellar shocks: results from /PACS and /IRS observations of HO, CO, and H
David A. Neufeld, Antoine Gusdorf, Rolf Güsten +7
We have investigated the water abundance in shock-heated molecular gas, making use of measurements of far-infrared CO and HO line emissions in combination with $Spit…
A Three-Year Multi-Wavelength Study of the Very High Energy Gamma-ray Blazar 1ES 0229+200
E. Aliu, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +83
The high-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object 1ES 0229+200 is a relatively distant (z = 0.1396), hard-spectrum (Gamma ~ 2.5), very-high-energy-emitting (E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray blaza…
Three-Dimensional General Relativistic Radiation Magnetohydrodynamical Simulation of Super-Eddington Accretion, using a new code HARMRAD with M1 Closure
Jonathan C. McKinney, Alexander Tchekhovskoy, Aleksander Sadowski +1
Black hole (BH) accretion flows and jets are dynamic hot relativistic magnetized plasma flows whose radiative opacity can significantly affect flow structure and behavior. We descr…
Stellar Granulation as the Source of High-Frequency Flicker in Kepler Light Curves
Steven R. Cranmer, Fabienne A. Bastien, Keivan G. Stassun +1
A large fraction of cool, low-mass stars exhibit brightness fluctuations that arise from a combination of convective granulation, acoustic oscillations, magnetic activity, and stel…
Planetary Candidates Observed by Kepler IV: Planet Sample From Q1-Q8 (22 Months)
Christopher J. Burke, Stephen T. Bryson, F. Mullally +37
We provide updates to the Kepler planet candidate sample based upon nearly two years of high-precision photometry (i.e., Q1-Q8). From an initial list of nearly 13,400 Threshold Cro…
The Astrophysics Source Code Library: Where do we go from here?
Alice Allen, Bruce Berriman, Kimberly DuPrie +8
The Astrophysics Source Code Library, started in 1999, has in the past three years grown from a repository for 40 codes to a registry of over 700 codes that are now indexed by ADS.…
Optical spectra of 5 new Be/X-ray Binaries in the Small Magellanic Cloud and the link of the supergiant B[e] star LHA 115-S 18 with an X-ray source
Grigoris Maravelias, Andreas Zezas, Vallia Antoniou +1
The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is well known to harbor a large number of High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs). The identification of their optical counterparts provides information o…
Sliding not sloshing in Abell 3744: the influence of radio galaxies NGC 7018 and 7016 on cluster gas
D. M. Worrall, M. Birkinshaw
We present new X-ray (Chandra) and radio (JVLA) observations of the nearby cluster Abell 3744. It hosts two prominent radio galaxies with powers in the range critical for radio-mod…
SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Analysis of Potential Systematics in Fitting of Baryon Acoustic Feature
Mariana Vargas Magaña, Shirley Ho, Xiaoying Xu +12
Extraction of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) to percent level accuracy is challenging and demands an understanding of many potential systematic to an accuracy well below 1…
An analytical model of the large neutral regions during the late stage of reionization
Yidong Xu, Bin Yue, Meng Su +2
In this paper we investigate the nature and distribution of large neutral regions during the late epoch of reionization. In the "bubble model" of reionization, the mass distributio…
The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological implications of the full shape of the clustering wedges in the data release 10 and 11 galaxy samples
Ariel G. Sanchez, Francesco Montesano, Eyal A. Kazin +25
We explore the cosmological implications of the angle-averaged correlation function, xi(s), and the clustering wedges, xi_perp(s) and xi_para(s), of the LOWZ and CMASS galaxy sampl…
