Stellar Structure and Tests of Modified Gravity
Philip Chang, Lam Hui
Theories that attempt to explain cosmic acceleration by modifying gravity typically introduces a long-range scalar force that needs to be screened on small scales. One common scree…
Diffusive Nuclear Burning of Helium on Neutron Stars
Philip Chang, Lars Bildsten, Phil Arras
Diffusive nuclear burning of H by an underlying material capable of capturing protons can readily consume H from the surface of neutron stars (NSs) during their early cooling histo…
On the Stability of Dust-Laden Protoplanetary Vortices
Philip Chang, Jeffrey S. Oishi
The formation of planetesimals via gravitational instability of the dust layer in a protoplanetary disks demands that there be local patches where dust is concentrated by a factor…
Sub-Chandrasekhar White Dwarf Mergers as the Progenitors of Type Ia Supernovae
Marten H. van Kerkwijk, Philip Chang, Stephen Justham
Type Ia supernovae are generally thought to be due to the thermonuclear explosions of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs with masses near the Chandrasekhar mass. This scenario, however, ha…
