E. Aliu, T. Arlen, T. Aune +88
VERITAS has been monitoring the very-high-energy (VHE; >100GeV) gamma-ray activity of the radio galaxy M87 since 2007. During 2008, flaring activity on a timescale of a few days wa…
Magnetic Fields in Population III Star Formation
Matthew J. Turk, Jeffrey S. Oishi, Tom Abel +1
We study the buildup of magnetic fields during the formation of Population III star-forming regions, by conducting cosmological simulations from realistic initial conditions and va…
Simulating the Cooling Flow of Cool-Core Clusters
Yuan Li, Greg L. Bryan
We carry out high-resolution adaptive mesh refinement simulations of a cool core cluster, resolving the flow from Mpc scales down to pc scales. We do not (yet) include any AGN heat…
The GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey V: The Relation between the HI Content of Galaxies and Metal Enrichment at their Outskirts
Sean M. Moran, Timothy M. Heckman, Guinevere Kauffmann +14
We have obtained long-slit spectra of 174 star-forming galaxies with stellar masses greater than 10^10 M_\odot from the GALEX Arecibo SDSS (GASS) survey. These galaxies have both H…
Ram pressure stripping of the multiphase ISM and star formation in the Virgo spiral galaxy NGC 4330
B. Vollmer, M. Soida, J. Braine +6
It has been shown that the Virgo spiral galaxy NGC 4330 shows signs of ongoing ram pressure stripping in multiple wavelengths: at the leading edge of the interaction, the Halpha an…
The 2010 very high energy gamma-ray flare & 10 years of multi-wavelength observations of M 87
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +442
Abridged: The giant radio galaxy M 87 with its proximity, famous jet, and very massive black hole provides a unique opportunity to investigate the origin of very high energy (VHE;…
The GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey. IV. Baryonic Mass-Velocity-Size Relations of Massive Galaxies
Barbara Catinella, Guinevere Kauffmann, David Schiminovich +12
We present dynamical scaling relations for a homogeneous and representative sample of ~500 massive galaxies, selected only by stellar mass (>10^10 Msun) and redshift (0.025<z<0.05)…
The Electromagnetic Christodoulou Memory Effect and its Application to Neutron Star Binary Mergers
Lydia Bieri, PoNing Chen, Shing-Tung Yau
Gravitational waves are predicted by the general theory of relativity. It has been shown that gravitational waves have a nonlinear memory, displacing test masses permanently. This…
Probing Cosmology with Weak Lensing Minkowski Functionals
Jan M. Kratochvil, Eugene A. Lim, Sheng Wang +3
In this paper, we show that Minkowski Functionals (MFs) of weak gravitational lensing (WL) convergence maps contain significant non-Gaussian, cosmology-dependent information. To do…
Cosmological Information in Weak Lensing Peaks
Xiuyuan Yang, Jan M. Kratochvil, Sheng Wang +3
Recent studies have shown that the number counts of convergence peaks N(kappa) in weak lensing (WL) maps, expected from large forthcoming surveys, can be a useful probe of cosmolog…
Directional limits on persistent gravitational waves using LIGO S5 science data
J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +712
The gravitational-wave (GW) sky may include nearby pointlike sources as well as astrophysical and cosmological stochastic backgrounds. Since the relative strength and angular distr…
Improved Models for Cosmic Infrared Background Anisotropies: New Constraints on the IR Galaxy Population
Cien Shang, Zoltán Haiman, Lloyd Knox +1
The power spectrum of cosmic infrared background (CIB) anisotropies is sensitive to the connection between star formation and dark matter halos over the entire cosmic star formatio…
Repeated Bursts from Relativistic Scattering of Compact Objects in Galactic Nuclei
Bence Kocsis, Janna Levin
Galactic nuclei are densely populated by stellar mass compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars. Bound, highly eccentric binaries form as a result of gravitational wave…
A Gaseous Group with Unusual Remote Star Formation
Nitza Santiago-Figueroa, Mary E. Putman, Jessica Werk +2
We present VLA 21-cm observations of the spiral galaxy ESO 481-G017 to determine the nature of remote star formation traced by an HII region found 43 kpc and ~800 km s^-1 from the…
Large-scale Bias and Efficient Generation of Initial Conditions for Non-Local Primordial Non-Gaussianity
Roman Scoccimarro, Lam Hui, Marc Manera +1
We study the scale-dependence of halo bias in generic (non-local) primordial non-Gaussian (PNG) initial conditions of the type motivated by inflation, parametrized by an arbitrary…
