Strong Evidence for the Density-wave Theory of Spiral Structure in Disk Galaxies
Hamed Pour-Imani, Daniel Kennefick, Julia Kennefick +3
The density-wave theory of galactic spiral-arm structure makes a striking prediction that the pitch angle of spiral arms should vary with the wavelength of the galaxy's image. The…

Constraining dark matter halo profiles and galaxy formation models using spiral arm morphology. II. Dark and stellar mass concentrations for 13 nearby face-on galaxies
Marc S. Seigar, Benjamin L. Davis, Joel Berrier +1
We investigate the use of spiral arm pitch angles as a probe of disk galaxy mass profiles. We confirm our previous result that spiral arm pitch angles (P) are well correlated with…

Relativistic Lighthouses: The Role of the Binary Pulsar in proving the existence of Gravitational Waves
Daniel Kennefick
This paper discusses the role of the discovery and analysis of the first binary pulsar in settling the long-running quadrupole formula controversy over the status of gravitational…
