Radiogenic Heating and its Influence on Rocky Planet Dynamos and Habitability
Francis Nimmo, Joel Primack, Sandra M. Faber +2
The thermal evolution of rocky planets on geological timescales (Gyr) depends on the heat input from the long-lived radiogenic elements potassium, thorium, and uranium. Concentrati…
What determines the structure of short gamma-ray burst jets?
Gerardo Urrutia, Fabio De Colle, Ariadna Murguia-Berthier +1
The discovery of GRB 170817A, the first unambiguous off-axis short gamma-ray burst arising from a neutron star merger, has challenged our understanding of the angular structure of…
Successful Common Envelope Ejection and Binary Neutron Star Formation in 3D Hydrodynamics
Jamie A. P. Law-Smith, Rosa Wallace Everson, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +10
A binary neutron star merger has been observed in a multi-messenger detection of gravitational wave (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) radiation. Binary neutron stars that merge within…
Discovery of a Fast Iron Low-ionization Outflow in the Early Evolution of the Nearby Tidal Disruption Event AT2019qiz
Tiara Hung, Ryan J. Foley, S. Veilleux +16
We report the results of ultraviolet (UV) and optical photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2019qiz. Our follow-up observations started 10…
Massive Stellar Triples Leading to Sequential Binary Black-Hole Mergers in the Field
Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Silvia Toonen, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +3
Stellar triples with massive stellar components are common, and can lead to sequential binary black-hole mergers. Here, we outline the evolution towards these sequential mergers, a…
The Landscape of Galaxies Harboring Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei in the Local Universe
Sierra A. Dodd, Jamie A. P. Law-Smith, Katie Auchettl +2
We study the properties of the host galaxies of Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei (CL AGNs) with the aim of understanding the conditions responsible for triggering CL activity.…
