Simulation of a Compact Object with Outflows Moving Through a Gaseous Background
Xinyu Li, Philip Chang, Yuri Levin +2
A compact object moving relative to surrounding gas accretes material and perturbs the density of gas in its vicinity. In the classical picture of Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton accretion,…
Negative Dynamical Friction on compact objects moving through dense gas
Andrei Gruzinov, Yuri Levin, Christopher D. Matzner
An over-dense wake is created by a gravitating object moving through a gaseous medium, and this wake pulls back on the object and slows it down. This is conventional dynamical fric…
Conversion Measure of Faraday Rotation-Conversion with application to Fast Radio Bursts
Andrei Gruzinov, Yuri Levin
Faraday Rotation-Conversion is the simultaneous rotation of all three Stokes polarization parameters , , as an electromagnetic wave propagates through a magnetized plasma…
Exploring the sensitivity of gravitational wave detectors to neutron star physics
Denis Martynov, Haixing Miao, Huan Yang +14
The physics of neutron stars can be studied with gravitational waves emitted from coalescing binary systems. Tidal effects become significant during the last few orbits and can be…
