Neon Cluster Formation and Phase Separation During White Dwarf Cooling
M. E. Caplan, C. J. Horowitz, A. Cumming
Recent observations of Galactic white dwarfs (WDs) with Gaia suggest there is a population of massive crystallizing WDs exhibiting anomalous cooling -- the Q branch. While single-p…
Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations including Neutrino Interactions from the Virial EOS
Evan O'Connor, C. J. Horowitz, Zidu Lin +1
Core-collapse supernova explosions are driven by a central engine that converts a small fraction of the gravitational binding energy released during core collapse to outgoing kinet…
The structure of accreted neutron star crust
C. J. Horowitz, D. K. Berry
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we determine the structure of neutron star crust made of rapid proton capture nucleosynthesis material. We find a regular body centered cubic…
Phase separation in the crust of accreting neutron stars
C. J. Horowitz, D. K. Berry, E. F. Brown
Nucleosynthesis, on the surface of accreting neutron stars, produces a range of chemical elements. We perform molecular dynamics simulations of crystallization to see how this comp…
