Drifters on the edge of town: Boötis stars in clusters

Richard J. Parker, Megan Allen

Boötis stars are a subset of chemically peculiar A-stars that display Solar abundances in lighter elements (C, N, O, S, etc.) but a deficiency in Iron-peak elements. This dif…

Trans-Fe elements from Type Ia Supernovae. I. Heavy element nucleosynthesis during the formation of near-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs

Umberto Battino, James Keegans, Megan Allen +9

Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) are thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs in binary systems. They are central to galactic chemical evolution and serve as standardizable candles in cos…

The past, present and future of observations of externally irradiated disks

Planet formation environments collaboration, Megan Allen, Rossella Anania +51

Recent years have seen a surge of interest in the community studying the effect of ultraviolet radiation environment, predominantly set by OB stars, on protoplanetary disc evolutio…

A two-step strategy to identify episodic sources of gravitational waves and high energy neutrinos in starburst galaxies

M. L. Allen, P. L. Biermann, L. I. Caramete +12

Supermassive black hole mergers with spin-flips accelerate energetic particles through their precessing relativistic jets, producing high energy neutrinos and finally gravitational…

Cosmic ray contributions from rapidly rotating stellar mass black holes: Cosmic Ray GeV to EeV proton and anti-proton sources

M. L. Allen, P. L. Biermann, A. Chieffi +12

In Radio Super Novae (RSNe) a magnetic field of is observed; these are the same numbers for Blue Supe…
