Accelerating expansion of the universe may be caused by inhomogeneities

Gyula Bene, Viktor Czinner, Matyas Vasuth

We point out that, due to the nonlinearity of the Einstein equations, a homogeneous approximation in cosmology leads to the appearance of an additional term in the Friedmann equati…

Sensitivity of the C and O production on the 3-alpha rate

H. Schlattl, A. Heger, H. Oberhummer +2

We investigate the dependence of the carbon and oxygen production in stars on the 3-alpha rate by varying the energy of the 02+-state of 12C and determine the resulting yields for…

Probing the Edge of the Solar System: Formation of an Unstable Jet-Sheet

M. Opher, P. C. Liewer, T. I. Gombosi +4

The Voyager spacecraft is now approaching the edge of the solar system. Near the boundary between the solar system and the interstellar medium we find that an unstable ``jet-sheet'…

Red and Reddened Quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Gordon T. Richards, Patrick B. Hall, Daniel E. Vanden Berk +12

We investigate the continuum and emission line properties of 4576 SDSS quasars as a function of their optical/UV SEDs. The optical/UV color distribution of our sample is roughly Ga…
