Charge State Distributions in Dense Plasmas
J. White, W. Johns, C. J. Fontes +3
Charge state distributions in hot, dense plasmas are a key ingredient in the calculation of spectral quantities like the opacity. However, they are challenging to calculate, as mod…
A search for optical and near-infrared counterparts of the compact binary merger GW190814
A. L. Thakur, S. Dichiara, E. Troja +29
We report on our observing campaign of the compact binary merger GW190814, detected by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors on August 14th, 2019. This signal has the best…
The Role of Inhomogeneities in Supernova Shock Breakout Emission
Chris L. Fryer, Christopher J. Fontes, James S. Warsa +3
The breakout of a supernova blast wave from its progenitor star provides strong constraints on the star and its immediate surroundings. These surroundings are shaped by mass loss f…
Axisymmetric Radiative Transfer Models of Kilonovae
Oleg Korobkin, Ryan Wollaeger, Christopher Fryer +9
The detailed observations of GW170817 proved for the first time directly that neutron star mergers are a major production site of heavy elements. The observations could be fit by a…
