Searching for Stellar Activity Cycles using Flares: The Short and Long Timescale Activity Variations of TIC-272272592
Tobin M. Wainer, James R. A. Davenport, Guadalupe Tovar Mendoza +2
We examine 4 years of Kepler 30-min data, and 5 Sectors of TESS 2-min data for the dM3 star KIC-8507979/TIC-272272592. This rapidly rotating (P=1.2 day) star has previously been id…
cogsworth: A Gala of COSMIC proportions combining binary stellar evolution and galactic dynamics
Tom Wagg, Katelyn Breivik, Mathieu Renzo +1
We present cogsworth, an open-source Python tool for producing self-consistent population synthesis and galactic dynamics simulations. With cogsworth one can (1) sample a populatio…
Streamlining and standardizing software citations with The Software Citation Station
Tom Wagg, Floor S. Broekgaarden
Software is crucial for the advancement of astronomy especially in the context of rapidly growing datasets that increasingly require algorithm and pipeline development to process t…
Close Encounters of Wide Binaries Induced by the Galactic Tide: Implications for Stellar Mergers and Gravitational-Wave Sources
Jakob Stegmann, Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Antti Rantala +6
A substantial fraction of stars can be found in wide binaries with projected separations between and . In the standard lore of binary physics, these would…
Stupendously Large Black Hole Coalescence and Hubble Tensions
Earl Patrick Bellinger, Jakob Stegmann, Tom Wagg
Local and distant measurements of the Hubble constant are in significant tension: local measurements of the Hubble constant appear to show a Universe that is significantly contract…
The Asteroseismic Imprints of Mass Transfer: A Case Study of a Binary Mass Gainer in the SPB Instability Strip
Tom Wagg, Cole Johnston, Earl P. Bellinger +3
We present new simulations investigating the impact of mass transfer on the asteroseismic signals of slowly pulsating B stars. We use MESA to simulate the evolution of a binary sta…
