A halo model for cosmological Lyman-limit systems
Tom Theuns, TK Chan
We present an analytical model for cosmological Lyman-limit systems (LLSs) that successfully reproduces the observed evolution of the mean free path (L) of ionizing photons. The ev…
Perturbative solution to the Lane-Emden equation: An eigenvalue approach
Kenny L. S. Yip, T. K. Chan, P. T. Leung
Under suitable scaling, the structure of self-gravitating polytropes is described by the standard Lane-Emden equation (LEE), which is characterised by the polytropic index . Her…
When the Jeans don't fit: How stellar feedback drives stellar kinematics and complicates dynamical modeling in low-mass galaxies
Kareem El-Badry, Andrew R. Wetzel, Marla Geha +5
In low-mass galaxies, stellar feedback can drive gas outflows that generate non-equilibrium fluctuations in the gravitational potential. Using cosmological zoom-in baryonic simulat…
I-Love relation for incompressible stars and realistic stars
T. K. Chan, Atma P. O. Chan, P. T. Leung
In spite of the diversity in the equations of state of nuclear matter, the recently discovered I-Love-Q relations [Yagi and Yunes, Science {\bf 341}, 365 (2013)], which relate the…
Unveiling the universality of I-Love-Q relations
Y. -H. Sham, T. K. Chan, L. -M. Lin +1
The recent discovery of the universal I-Love-Q relations connecting the moment of inertia, tidal deformability, and the spin-induced quadrupole moment of compact stars is intriguin…
Multipolar universal relations between f-mode frequency and tidal deformability of compact stars
T. K. Chan, Y. -H. Sham, P. T. Leung +1
Though individual stellar parameters of compact stars usually demonstrate obvious dependence on the equation of state (EOS), EOS-insensitive universal formulas relating these param…
