Fast, Collimated Outflow in the Western Nucleus of Arp 220
Loreto Barcos-Muñoz, Susanne Aalto, Todd A. Thompson +6
We present the first spatially and spectrally resolved image of the molecular outflow in the western nucleus of Arp\,220. The outflow, seen in HCN~(1--0) by ALMA, is compact and co…
The Highly Luminous Type Ibn Supernova ASASSN-14ms
P. J. Vallely, J. L. Prieto, K. Z. Stanek +16
We present photometric and spectroscopic follow-up observations of the highly luminous Type Ibn supernova ASASSN-14ms, which was discovered on UT 2014-12-26.61 at .…
Stellar Multiplicity Meets Stellar Evolution And Metallicity: The APOGEE View
Carles Badenes, Christine Mazzola, Todd A. Thompson +21
We use the multi-epoch radial velocities acquired by the APOGEE survey to perform a large scale statistical study of stellar multiplicity for field stars in the Milky Way, spanning…
A Nova Outburst Powered by Shocks
Kwan-Lok Li, Brian D. Metzger, Laura Chomiuk +13
Classical novae are runaway thermonuclear burning events on the surfaces of accreting white dwarfs in close binary star systems, sometimes appearing as new naked-eye sources in the…
Dynamics of Quadruple Systems Composed of Two Binaries: Stars, White Dwarfs, and Implications for Ia Supernovae
Xiao Fang, Todd A. Thompson, Christopher M. Hirata
[Abridged]We investigate the long-term secular dynamics and Lidov-Kozai(LK) eccentricity oscillations of quadruple systems composed of two binaries at quadrupole and octupole order…
High-entropy ejections from magnetized proto-neutron star winds: implications for heavy element nucleosynthesis
Todd A. Thompson, Asif ud-Doula
Although initially thought to be promising for production of the r-process nuclei, standard models of neutrino-heated winds from proto-neutron stars (PNSs) do not reach the requisi…
