Introducing STARDIS: An Open and Modular Stellar Spectral Synthesis Code
Joshua V. Shields, Wolfgang Kerzendorf, Isaac G. Smith +7
We introduce a new 1D stellar spectral synthesis Python code called stardis. stardis is a modular, open-source radiative transfer code that is capable of spectral synthesis from ne…
Helioseismic inference of the solar radiative opacity
Gaël Buldgen, Jean-Christophe Pain, Philippe Cossé +18
The Sun is the most studied of all stars, and thus constitutes a benchmark for stellar models. However, our vision of the Sun is still incomplete, as illustrated by the current deb…
Multidisciplinary Science in the Multimessenger Era
Eric Burns, Christopher L. Fryer, Ivan Agullo +82
Astrophysical observations of the cosmos allow us to probe extreme physics and answer foundational questions on our universe. Modern astronomy is increasingly operating under a hol…
Impact of a minority relativistic electron tail interacting with a thermal plasma containing high-atomic-number impurities
Nathan A. Garland, Hyun-Kyung Chung, Christopher J. Fontes +6
A minority relativistic electron component can arise in both laboratory and naturally-occurring plasmas. In the presence of high-atomic-number ion species, the ion charge state dis…
