Remnants of Binary White Dwarf Mergers
Cody Raskin, Evan Scannapieco, Chris Fryer +2
We carry out a comprehensive smooth particle hydrodynamics simulation survey of double-degenerate white dwarf binary mergers of varying mass combinations in order to establish corr…
Identification of a Fundamental Transition in a Turbulently-Supported Interstellar Medium
Evan Scannapieco, William J. Gray, Liubin Pan
The interstellar medium in star-forming galaxies is a multiphase gas in which turbulent support is at least as important as thermal pressure. Sustaining this configuration requires…
Formation of Compact Stellar Clusters by High-Redshift Galaxy Outflows III: Observability and Connection to Halo Globular Clusters
William J Gray, Evan Scannapieco
The early universe hosted a large population of low-mass virialized "minihalos," that were not massive enough to form stars on their own. While most minihalos were photoevaporated…
The Pollution of Pristine Material in Compressible Turbulence
Liubin Pan, Evan Scannapieco, John Scalo
The first generation of stars had very different properties than later stellar generations, as they formed from a "pristine" gas that was free of heavy elements. Normal star format…
Predicting the Merger Fraction of Lyman alpha Emitters from Redshift z~3 to z~7
Vithal Tilvi, Evan Scannapieco, Sangeeta Malhotra +1
Rapid mass assembly, likely from mergers or smooth accretion, has been predicted to play a vital role in star-formation in high-redshift Lyman-alpha (Lya) emitters. Here we predict…
Formation of Compact Stellar Clusters by High-Redshift Galaxy Outflows II: Effect of Turbulence and Metal-Line Cooling
William Gray, Evan Scannapieco
In the primordial universe, low mass structures with virial temperatures less than 10 K were unable to cool by atomic line transitions, leading to a strong suppression of sta…
