Fundamentals of impulsive energy release in the corona
Albert Y. Shih, Lindsay Glesener, Säm Krucker +30
It is essential that there be coordinated and co-optimized observations in X-rays, gamma-rays, and EUV during the peak of solar cycle 26 (~2036) to significantly advance our unders…
HAT-P-54b: A hot jupiter transiting a 0.64 Msun star in field 0 of the K2 mission
G. Á. Bakos, J. D. Hartman, W. Bhatti +22
We report the discovery of HAT-P-54b, a planet transiting a late K dwarf star in field 0 of the NASA K2 mission. We combine ground-based photometric light curves with radial veloci…
Million Degree Plasmas in Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Astrophysics
Michael P. Kowalski, Martin Barstow, Frederick Bruhweiler +12
Million degree plasmas are ubiquitous in the Universe, and examples include the atmospheres of white dwarfs; accretion phenomena in young stars, cataclysmic variables and active ga…
Extreme Astrophysics with Neutron Stars
Dong Lai, Marten van Kerkwijk, Jon Arons +11
We highlight recent theoretical and observational progress in several areas of neutron star astrophysics, and discuss the prospect for advances in the next decade.
The Need for Plasma Astrophysics in Understanding Life Cycles of Active Galaxies
H. Li, J. Arons, P. Bellan +8
In this White Paper, we emphasize the need for and the important role of plasma astrophysics in the studies of formation, evolution of, and feedback by Active Galaxies. We make thr…
GRB Afterglows as a New Probe of the ISM and IGM at High Redshift
Hsiao-Wen Chen, Jason X. Prochaska, Josh S. Bloom
We summarize results from a study of the metallicity, relative abundances, gas density, and kinematics of dense media in the host environment of two Swift bursts, GRB050730 at z=3.…
