Accretion onto Intermediate-Mass Black Holes in Dense Protogalactic Clouds
Milos Milosavljevic, Sean M. Couch, Volker Bromm
We present the first results from two-dimensional simulations of radiatively-efficient accretion of metal-free gas onto intermediate-mass black holes. We fix the shape of the spect…
Shock Vorticity Generation from Accelerated Ion Streaming in the Precursor of Ultrarelativistic Gamma-Ray Burst External Shocks
Sean M. Couch, Milos Milosavljevic, Ehud Nakar
We investigate the interaction of nonthermal ions (protons and nuclei) accelerated in an ultrarelativistic blastwave with the pre-existing magnetic field of the medium into which t…
The Shape of Cas A
J. Craig Wheeler, Justyn R. Maund, Sean M. Couch
Based on optical, IR and X-ray studies of Cas A, we propose a geometry for the remnant based on a "jet-induced" scenario with significant systematic departures from axial symmetry.…
