Absolute Magnitude Distribution And Light Curves Of Gamma-Ray Burst Supernovae

Dean Richardson

Photometry data were collected from the literature and analyzed for supernovae that are thought to have a gamma-ray burst association. There are several gamma-ray burst afterglow l…

Anti-vortex dynamics in magnetic nanostripes

Andrew Kunz, Eric C. Breitbach, Andrew J. Smith

In a thin magnetic nanostripe, an anti-vortex nucleates inside a moving domain wall when driven by an in-plane magnetic field greater than the so-called Walker field. The nucleated…

SN 2001em: Not so Fast

F. K. Schinzel, G. B. Taylor, C. J. Stockdale +2

SN 2001em is a peculiar supernova, originally classified as Type Ib/c. About two years after the SN it was detected in the radio, showing a rising radio flux with an optically thin…

Bounds on Lorentz and CPT Violation from the Earth-Ionosphere Cavity

Matthew Mewes

Electromagnetic resonant cavities form the basis of many tests of Lorentz invariance involving photons. The effects of some forms of Lorentz violation scale with cavity size. We in…

Common Envelope Mergers: A Possible Channel for Forming Single sdB Stars

Michael Politano, Ronald E. Taam, Marc van der Sluys +1

We quantify an evolutionary channel for single sdB stars based on mergers of binaries containing a red giant star and a lower mass main sequence or brown dwarf companion in our Gal…

Eleven years of radio monitoring of the Type IIn supernova SN 1995N

Poonam Chandra, Christopher J. Stockdale, Roger A. Chevalier +6

We present radio observations of the optically bright Type IIn supernova SN 1995N. We observed the SN at radio wavelengths with the Very Large Array (VLA) for 11 years. We also obs…

Astrophysical Tests of Lorentz and CPT Violation with Photons

Alan Kostelecky, Matthew Mewes

A general framework for tests of Lorentz invariance with electromagnetic waves is presented, allowing for operators of arbitrary mass dimension. Signatures of Lorentz violations in…

Fast domain wall motion in nanostripes with out-of-plane fields

Andrew Kunz, Sarah C. Reiff

Controlling domain wall motion is important due to the impact on the viability of proposed nanowire devices. One hurdle is slow domain wall speed when driven by fields greater than…

Lorentz Violation, Electrodynamics, and the Cosmic Microwave Background

Matthew Mewes

Vacuum birefringence is a signature of Lorentz-symmetry violation. Here we report on a recent search for birefringence in the cosmic microwave background. Polarization data is used…
