A Black Hole Star at Cosmic Noon: Extreme Balmer break, photospheric continuum, and broad absorption by thick winds in a Little Red Dot at z=1.7
Alberto Torralba, Jorryt Matthee, Andrea Weibel +12
Recent studies at high redshift have revealed an enigmatic class of Little Red Dots (LRDs) with extreme Balmer breaks, stronger than in any stellar atmosphere. However, it is uncle…
Circumstellar interaction in the extreme white dwarf merger remnant ZTF\,J1901+1458: A new class of white dwarf merger remnants with X-ray emission
Aayush Desai, Ilaria Caiazzo, Stephane Vennes +31
Double degenerate white dwarf (WD) mergers can exhibit extreme magnetic fields exceeding G and rapid rotation, but their spectral-energy distributions and high-energy emis…
A half-ring of ionized circumstellar material trapped in the magnetosphere of a white dwarf merger remnant
Andrei A. Cristea, Ilaria Caiazzo, Tim Cunningham +31
Many white dwarfs are observed in compact double white dwarf binaries and, through the emission of gravitational waves, a large fraction are destined to merge. The merger remnants…
Fully independent response in disordered solids
Mengjie Zu, Aayush Desai, Carl P. Goodrich
Unlike in crystals, it is difficult to trace emergent material properties of amorphous solids to their underlying structure. Nevertheless, one can tune features of a disordered spr…
