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,…
Optical Transient from an Explosion Close to the Stellar Surface
Almog Yalinewich, Christopher D. Matzner
We study the hydrodynamic evolution of an explosion close to the stellar surface, and give predictions for the radiation from such an event. We show that such an event will give ri…
KSP-SN-2016kf: a long-rising H-rich Type II Supernova with unusually high Ni mass discovered in the KMTNet Supernova Program
Niloufar Afsariardchi, Dae-Sik Moon, Maria R. Drout +12
We present the discovery and the photometric and spectroscopic study of H-rich Type II supernova (SN) KSP-SN-2016kf (SN2017it) observed in the KMTNet Supernova Program in the outsk…
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…
