Evidence for a hard equation of state in the cores of neutron stars

Chris Vuille

The equation of state for matter with energy density above 2 x10^14 g/cm^3 is parametrized by P = kN^Gamma, where N is the number density, Gamma is the adiabatic index, and k a con…

The Red Rectangle: Its Shaping Mechanism and its Source of Ultraviolet Photons

Adolf N. Witt, Uma P. Vijh, L. M. Hobbs +3

The proto-planetary Red Rectangle nebula is powered by HD 44179, a spectroscopic binary (P = 318 d), in which a luminous post-AGB component is the primary source of both luminosity…

Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Soft Gamma Repeaters

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, S. Barthelmy, N. Gehrels +2

We present the results of a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. This is the first search sensitive to neutron…
