Star Formation in Partially Gas-Depleted Spiral Galaxies
James A. Rose, Paul Robertson, Jesse Miner +1
Broadband B and R and H-alpha images have been obtained with the 4.1-m SOAR telescope atop Cerro Pachon, Chile for 29 spiral galaxies in the Pegasus I galaxy cluster and for 18 spi…
Compton Scattering on Light Nuclei
Deepshikha Shukla
Compton scattering on light nuclei () has emerged as an effective avenue to search for signatures of neutron polarizabilities, both spin--independent and spin--dependent one…
Photometry and spectroscopy of the new sdBV CS 1246
B. N. Barlow, B. H. Dunlap, J. C. Clemens +6
We report the discovery of a large-amplitude oscillation in the hot subdwarf B star CS 1246 and present multi-colour photometry and time-resolved spectroscopy supporting this disco…
String Theory and Turbulence
Vishnu Jejjala, Djordje Minic, Y. Jack Ng +1
We propose a string theory of turbulence that explains the Kolmogorov scaling in 3+1 dimensions and the Kraichnan and Kolmogorov scalings in 2+1 dimensions. This string theory of t…
Limits on Spacetime Foam
Wayne A. Christiansen, David J. E. Floyd, Y. Jack Ng +1
Plausibly spacetime is "foamy" on small distance scales, due to quantum fluctuations. We elaborate on the proposal to detect spacetime foam by looking for seeing disks in the image…
Shear thickening in densely packed suspensions of spheres and rods confined to few layers
Eric Brown, Hanjun Zhang, Nicole A. Forman +4
We investigate confined shear thickening suspensions for which the sample thickness is comparable to the particle dimensions. Rheometry measurements are presented for densely packe…
Introduction to nuclear astrophysics
Christian Iliadis
In the first lecture of this volume, we will present the basic fundamental ideas regarding nuclear processes occurring in stars. We start from stellar observations, will then elabo…
PCA consistency in high dimension, low sample size context
Sungkyu Jung, J. S. Marron
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is an important tool of dimension reduction especially when the dimension (or the number of variables) is very high. Asymptotic studies where the…
A Star in the M31 Giant Stream: the Highest Negative Stellar Velocity Known
N. Caldwell, H. Morrison, S. J. Kenyon +3
We report on a single star, B030D, observed as part of a large survey of objects in M31, which has the unusual radial velocity of -780 km/s. Based on details of its spectrum, we fi…
Gas Mass Fractions and Star Formation in Blue-Sequence E/S0 Galaxies
L. H. Wei, S. J. Kannappan, S. N. Vogel +1
Recent work has identified a population of low-redshift E/S0 galaxies that lie on the blue sequence in color vs. stellar mass parameter space, where spiral galaxies typically resid…
Spitzer and HHT observations of starless cores: masses and environments
Amelia M. Stutz, George H. Rieke, John H. Bieging +6
We present Spitzer observations of a sample of 12 starless cores selected to have prominent 24 micron shadows. The Spitzer images show 8 and 24 micron shadows and in some cases 70…
Axigluon as Possible Explanation for Forward-Backward Asymmetry
Paul H. Frampton, Jing Shu, Kai Wang
A flavor-nonuniversal chiral color model is introduced. It is used for comparison to the recent data on . We concluded that the data are consistent with in…
Path count asymptotics and Stirling numbers
K. Petersen, A. Varchenko
We obtain formulas for the growth rate of the numbers of certain paths in infinite graphs built on the two-dimensional Eulerian graph. Corollaries are identities relating Stirling…
Community Structure in Time-Dependent, Multiscale, and Multiplex Networks
Peter J. Mucha, Thomas Richardson, Kevin Macon +2
Network science is an interdisciplinary endeavor, with methods and applications drawn from across the natural, social, and information sciences. A prominent problem in network scie…
TThe {\sc Majorana} Project
The MAJORANA collaboration
The {\sc Majorana} Project, a neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment is described with an emphasis on the choice of Ge-detector configuration.
An Evening Spent with Bill van Zwet
R. J. Beran, N. I. Fisher
Willem Rutger van Zwet was born in Leiden, the Netherlands, on March 31, 1934. He received his high school education at the Gymnasium Haganum in The Hague and obtained his Masters…
Number and Entropy of Halo Black Holes
Paul H. Frampton, Kevin Ludwick
Based on constraints from microlensing and disk stability, both with and without limitations from wide binary surveys, we estimate the total number and entropy of intermediate mass…
Alternative Version of Chiral Color as Alternative to the Standard Model
Paul H. Frampton
In a variant of chiral color with the electroweak gauge group generalized to anomaly cancellation occurs more readily than in the case.…
Ultraviolet Study of the Active Interacting Binary Star R Arae using Archival IUE Data
Phillip A. Reed, George E. McCluskey, Yoji Kondo +7
The eclipsing and strongly interacting binary star system R Arae (HD149730) is in a very active and very short-lived stage of its evolution. R Ara consists of a B9V primary and an…
Gravitational Collapse and Filament Formation: Comparison with the Pipe Nebula
Fabian Heitsch, Javier Ballesteros-Paredes, Lee Hartmann
Recent models of molecular cloud formation and evolution suggest that such clouds are dynamic and generally exhibit gravitational collapse. We present a simple analytic model of gl…
Magnetic Nested-wind Scenarios for Bipolar Outflows: Pre-planetary and YSO nebular shaping
Timothy J. Dennis, Adam Frank, Eric G. Blackman +3
We present results of a series of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and hydro- dynamic (HD) 2.5D simulations of the morphology of outflows driven by nested wide-angle winds - i.e. winds wh…
Nonparametric inference for competing risks current status data with continuous, discrete or grouped observation times
Marloes H. Maathuis, Michael G. Hudgens
New methods and theory have recently been developed to nonparametrically estimate cumulative incidence functions for competing risks survival data subject to current status censori…
The Automatic Galaxy Collision Software
Beverly J. Smith, Chris Carver, Phillip Pfeiffer +10
The key to understanding the physical processes that occur during galaxy interactions is dynamical modeling, and especially the detailed matching of numerical models to specific sy…
On asymptotically optimal tests under loss of identifiability in semiparametric models
Rui Song, Michael R. Kosorok, Jason P. Fine
We consider tests of hypotheses when the parameters are not identifiable under the null in semiparametric models, where regularity conditions for profile likelihood theory fail. Ex…
