Tidally-induced thermonuclear Supernovae
S. Rosswog, E. Ramirez-Ruiz, W. R. Hix
We discuss the results of 3D simulations of tidal disruptions of white dwarfs by moderate-mass black holes as they may exist in the cores of globular clusters or dwarf galaxies. Ou…
Gamma Ray Burst Section of the White Paper on the Status and Future of Ground-based TeV Gamma-ray Astronomy
A. D. Falcone, D. A. Williams, M. G. Baring +20
This is a report on the findings of the gamma ray burst working group for the white paper on the status and future of TeV gamma-ray astronomy. The white paper is an APS commissione…
A Survey for NV Absorption at z~z_GRB in GRB Afterglow Spectra: Clues to Gas Near the Progenitor Star
Jason X. Prochaska, Miroslava Dessauges-Zavadsky, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +1
We survey NV absorption in the afterglow spectra of long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with the intent to study highly ionized gas in the galaxies hosting these events. We ident…
The Gamma Ray Burst section of the White Paper on the Status and Future of Very High Energy Gamma Ray Astronomy: A Brief Preliminary Report
A. D. Falcone, D. A. Williams, M. G. Baring +19
This is a short report on the preliminary findings of the gamma ray burst (GRB) working group for the white paper on the status and future of very high energy (VHE; >50 GeV) gamma-…
Simulating Black Hole White Dwarf Encounters
S. Rosswog, E. Ramirez-Ruiz, W. R. Hix +1
The existence of supermassive black holes lurking in the centers of galaxies and of stellar binary systems containing a black hole with a few solar masses has been established beyo…
