Grain Boundary Diffusion in Yukawa Crystals
Matthew E. Caplan, Nevin T. Smith, Dany Yaacoub +3
We present calculations of diffusion coefficients in grain boundaries in Yukawa crystals for astrophysics. Our methods follow from our recent work calculating diffusion coefficient…
Metagalactic Ultraviolet Background Tables for Calculating Diffuse Astrophysical Plasma Properties
Elias Taira, Claire Kopenhafer, Brian W. O'Shea
In developing a deeper understanding of the Circumgalactic Medium, one feature that is poorly understood is the nature of the ultraviolet background (UVB) and its impact on observe…
Impacts of the Metagalactic Ultraviolet Background on Circumgalactic Medium Absorption Systems
Elias Taira, Claire Kopenhafer, Brian W. Oshea +5
Among the many different pieces of physics that go into simulations of the circumgalactic medium (CGM), the metagalactic ultraviolet background (UVB) plays a significant role in de…
Inferring the redshift of more than 150 GRBs with a Machine Learning Ensemble model
Maria Giovanna Dainotti, Elias Taira, Eric Wang +8
Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), due to their high luminosities are detected up to redshift 10, and thus have the potential to be vital cosmological probes of early processes in the univer…
