Divergence-Free Magnetohydrodynamics on Conformally Moving, Adaptive Meshes Using a Vector Potential Method

P. Chris Fragile, Daniel Nemergut, Payden L. Shaw +1

We present a new method for evolving the equations of magnetohydrodynamics (both Newtonian and relativistic) that is capable of maintaining a divergence-free magnetic field ($\nabl…

Embeddings of Free Magmas with Applications to the Study of Free Non-Associative Algebras

Cameron Ismail

We introduce an embedding of the free magma on a set A into the direct product of the free magma on a singleton set and the free semigroup on A. This embedding is then used to prov…

Asymptotics of Integrals of Some Functions Related to the Degenerate Third Painlevé Equation

A. V. Kitaev, A. Vartanian

It is shown how to calculate asymptotics of integrals over the positive semi-axis of two functions related to the Degenerate Third Painlevé Equation (dP3). As an example, the corre…

Multi-epoch Direct Imaging and Time-Variable Scattered Light Morphology of the HD 163296 Protoplanetary Disk

Evan A. Rich, John P. Wisniewski, Thayne Currie +58

We present H-band polarized scattered light imagery and JHK high-contrast spectroscopy of the protoplanetary disk around HD 163296 observed with the HiCIAO and SCExAO/CHARIS instru…

A Remarkably Loud Quasi-Periodicity after a Star is Disrupted by a Massive Black Hole

Dheeraj R. Pasham, Ronald A. Remillard, P. Chris Fragile +9

The immense tidal forces of massive black holes can rip apart stars that come too close to them. As the resulting stellar debris spirals inwards, it heats up and emits x-rays when…

SCExAO/CHARIS Near-Infrared Direct Imaging, Spectroscopy, and Forward-Modeling of kappa And b: A Likely Young, Low-Gravity Superjovian Companion

Thayne Currie, Timothy D. Brandt, Taichi Uyama +30

We present SCExAO/CHARIS high-contrast imaging/ integral field spectroscopy of And b, a directly-imaged low-mass companion orbiting a nearby B9V star. We detect And b…
