Constraining white-dwarf kicks in globular clusters : II. Observational Significance
Jeremy S. Heyl
If the winds of an asymptotic-giant-branch stars are sufficiently strong are slightly asymmetric, they can alter the star's trajectory through a globular cluster; therefore, if the…
Magnetars
Jeremy S. Heyl
Ultramagnetized neutron stars or magnetars are magnetically powered neutron stars. Their strong magnetic fields dominate the physical processes in their crusts and their surroundin…
Rotational Evolution of Protoneutron Stars
Yefei Yuan, Jeremy S. Heyl
We study the rotational evolution of a protoneutron star with hyperons and nucleons or solely nucleons in its core due to the escape of the trapped neutrinos. It is found that at t…
Accretion limits the compactness of static stars
Jeremy S. Heyl
General relativity limits the compactness of static stars. If the pressure of the fluid is positive and the density decreases with distance from the center, the value of the circum…
LMXBs may be important LIGO sources after all
Jeremy Heyl
Andersson et al. and Bildsten proposed that the spin of accreting neutron stars is limited by removal of angular momentum by gravitational radiation which increases dramatically wi…
Compact Objects and Accretion Disks
Roger Blandford, Eric Agol, Avery Broderick +3
Recent developments in the spectropolarimetric study of compact objects, specifically black holes (stellar and massive) and neutron stars are reviewed. The lectures are organized a…
