Relaxation-limited evaporation of globular clusters
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Evaporative evolution of stellar clusters is shown to be relaxation limited when the number of stars satisfies , where . For a Maxwell velocity distribution…
Electromagnetic priors for black hole spindown in searches for gravitational-waves from supernovae and long GRBs
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Massimo Della Valle, Amir Levinson
Some core-collapse supernovae appear to be hyper-energetic, and a subset of these are aspherical and associated with long GRBs. We use observations of electromagnetic emission from…
Narrowing of the neutrino light curve in the OPERA experiment
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
In the OPERA experiment, the time of arrival of the neutrino light curve at LNGS is defined by a best-fit to the generating proton PDF at CERN. By a two parameter matched filtering…
Entropic force in black hole binaries and its Newtonian limits
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
We give an exact solution for the static force between two black holes at the turning points in their binary motion. The results are derived by Gibbs' principle and the Bekenstein-…
Asymptotic harmonic behavior in the prime number distribution
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
We consider on , where the sum is over all primes . If is bounded on , then the Riemann hypothesis…
Prospects for true calorimetry on Kerr black holes in core-collapse supernovae and mergers
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Nobuyuki Kanda, Hideyuki Tagoshi +3
Observational evidence for black hole spin down has been found in the normalized light curves of long GRBs in the BATSE catalogue. Over the duration of the burst, matter s…
