A search for passive protoplanetary disks in the Taurus-Auriga star-forming region
Gaspard Duchene, Adam Becker, Yizhe Yang +4
We conducted a 12-month monitoring campaign of 33 T Tauri stars (TTS) in Taurus. Our goal was to monitor objects that possess a disk but have a weak Halpha line, a common accretion…
A User-Friendly Dark Energy Model Generator
Kyle A. Hinton, Adam Becker, Dragan Huterer
We provide software with a graphical user interface to calculate the phenomenology of a wide class of dark energy models featuring multiple scalar fields. The user chooses a subcla…
Joint Minkowski Functionals and Bispectrum Constraints on Non-Gaussianity in the CMB
Wenjuan Fang, Adam Becker, Dragan Huterer +1
Two of the most commonly used tools to constrain the primordial non-Gaussianity are the bispectrum and the Minkowski functionals of CMB temperature anisotropies. These two measures…
First constraints on the running of non-Gaussianity
Adam Becker, Dragan Huterer
We use data from the WMAP temperature maps to constrain a scale-dependent generalization of the popular 'local' model for primordial non-Gaussianity. In the model where the paramet…
Caltech Core-Collapse Project (CCCP) Observations of Type II Supernovae: Evidence for Three Distinct Photometric Subtypes
Iair Arcavi, Avishay Gal-Yam, S. Bradley Cenko +12
We present R-Band light curves of Type II supernovae (SNe) from the Caltech Core Collapse Project (CCCP). With the exception of interacting (Type IIn) SNe and rare events with long…
Scale-Dependent Non-Gaussianity as a Generalization of the Local Model
Adam Becker, Dragan Huterer, Kenji Kadota
We generalize the local model of primordial non-Gaussianity by promoting the parameter fNL to a general scale-dependent function fNL(k). We calculate the resulting bispectrum and t…
