The Origin and Kinematics of Cold Gas in Galactic Winds: Insight from Numerical Simulations
Akimi Fujita, Crystal L. Martin, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +2
We study the origin of Na I absorbing gas in ultraluminous infrared galaxies motivated by the recent observations by Martin of extremely superthermal linewidths in this cool gas. W…
Dynamical Rotational Instability at Low
Joan M. Centrella, Kimberly C. B. New, Lisa L. Lowe +1
Dynamical instability is shown to occur in differentially rotating polytropes with N = 3.33 and . This instability has a strong m=1 mode, although the m=2, 3, a…
Evolution of Differentially Rotating Supermassive Stars to the Onset of Bar Instability
Kimberly C. B. New, Stuart L. Shapiro
Thermal emission from a rotating, supermassive star will cause the configuration to contract slowly and spin up. If internal viscosity and magnetic fields are sufficiently weak, th…
The Formation of Supermassive Black Holes and the Evolution of Supermassive Stars
Kimberly C. B. New, Stuart L. Shapiro
The existence of supermassive black holes is supported by a growing body of observations. Supermassive black holes and their formation events are likely candidates for detection by…
Gravitational Waves from Long-Duration Simulations of the Dynamical Bar Instability
Kimberly C. B. New, Joan M. Centrella, Joel E. Tohline
Compact astrophysical objects that rotate rapidly may encounter the dynamical ``bar instability.'' The bar-like deformation induced by this rotational instability causes the object…
Millisecond Pulsars: Detectable Sources of Continuous Gravitational Waves?
Kimberly C. B. New, G. Chanmugam, Warren W. Johnson +1
Laboratory searches for the detection of gravitational waves have focused on the detection of burst signals emitted during a supernova explosion, but have not resulted in any confi…
