On The Theory of Ring Afterglows

Marcus DuPont, Andrew MacFadyen, Re'em Sari

Synchrotron and inverse Compton emission successfully explain the observed spectra of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows. It is thought that most GRBs are products of extremely relat…

Ellipsars: Ring-like explosions from flattened stars

Marcus DuPont, Andrew MacFadyen, Jonathan Zrake

The stellar cataclysms producing astronomical transients have long been modeled as either a point-like explosion or jet-like engine ignited at the center of a spherically symmetric…

Comparative Analysis of the Solar Wind: Modeling Charge State Distributions in the Heliosphere

Marcus DuPont, Chengcai Shen, Nicholas A. Murphy

Non-equilibrium ionization (NEI) is a key process often times neglected when modeling astrophysical plasmas with thermodynamical timescales much shorter than the timescales for ion…

Fundamental Physical and Resource Requirements for a Martian Magnetic Shield

Marcus DuPont, Jeremiah W. Murphy

Mars lacks a substantial magnetic field; as a result, the solar wind ablates the Martian atmosphere, making the surface uninhabitable. Therefore, any terraforming attempt will requ…

The First 1 1/2 Years of TOTEM Roman Pot Operation at LHC

M. Deile, G. H. Antchev, R. B. Appleby +23

Since the LHC running season 2010, the TOTEM Roman Pots (RPs) are fully operational and serve for collecting elastic and diffractive proton-proton scattering data. Like for other m…
