Mega-Gauss Plasma Jet Creation Using a Ring of Laser Beams
L. Gao, E. Liang, Y. Lu +11
Using 20 OMEGA laser beams at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, University of Rochester, to irradiate a flat plastic target in a hollow ring configuration, we created supersonic…
Plasma Radiation Model of Fast Radio Bursts from Magnetars
Edison Liang
We propose a novel idea for the coherent intense millisecond radio emission of cosmic fast radio bursts (FRBs), which have recently been identified with flares from a magnetar. Mot…
A Scintillator Attenuation Spectrometer For Intense Gamma-Rays
Edison Liang, Kevin Qinyuan Zheng, Kelly Yao +10
A new type of compact high resolution high sensitivity gamma ray spectrometer for short pulse intense 250 keV to 50 MeV gamma rays has been developed by combining the principles of…
Complex Phase Lag Behaviors of the 0.5 - 10 Hz QPOs in GRS 1915+105
D. Lin, I. A. Smith, E. P. Liang +1
Through studying the hard lags between the soft (3.3 - 5.8 keV) and hard (13.0 - 41.0 keV) photons of the 0.5 - 10 Hz QPOs in GRS 1915+105, we have classified them into three types…
The Energy Dependence of the Aperiodic Variability for Cygnus X-1, GX 339-4, GRS 1758-258, & 1E 1740.7-2942
D. Lin, I. A. Smith, M. Bottcher +1
Using the data from the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE), we report the different energy dependence of the variability of the four persistent hard X-ray sources in the low-hard s…
A New Model for the Hard Time Lags in Black Hole X-Ray Binaries
M. Boettcher, E. P. Liang
The time-dependent Comptonized output of a cool soft X-ray source drifting inward through an inhomogeneous hot inner disk or corona is numerically simulated. We propose that this s…
