Lensing of 21-cm Fluctuations by Primordial Gravitational Waves

Laura Book, Marc Kamionkowski, Fabian Schmidt

Weak-gravitational-lensing distortions to the intensity pattern of 21-cm radiation from the dark ages can be decomposed geometrically into curl and curl-free components. Lensing by…

Odd-Parity Bipolar Spherical Harmonics

Laura G. Book, Marc Kamionkowski, Tarun Souradeep

Bipolar spherical harmonics (BiPoSHs) provide a general formalism for quantifying departures in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from statistical isotropy (SI) and from Gaussi…

Astrometric Effects of a Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background

Laura G. Book, Éanna É. Flanagan

A stochastic gravitational wave background causes the apparent positions of distant sources to fluctuate, with angular deflections of order the characteristic strain amplitude of t…

Angular Momentum Evolution in Dark Matter Halos

Laura G. Book, Alyson Brooks, Annika H. G. Peter +2

We have analyzed high resolution N-body simulations of dark matter halos, focusing specifically on the evolution of angular momentum. We find that not only is individual particle a…

Long-term Evolution of Protostellar and Protoplanetary Disks. I. Outbursts

Zhaohuan Zhu, Lee Hartmann, Charles F. Gammie +3

As an initial investigation into the long-term evolution of protostellar disks, we explore the conditions required to explain the large outbursts of disk accretion seen in some you…

The Role of Ram Pressure Stripping in the Quenching of Cluster Star Formation

Laura G. Book, Andrew J. Benson

Recent observations of galaxy clusters have shown that environmental effects apparently associated with the cluster begin to lower the star formation rates of galaxies at distances…
