Dynamical resonance locking in tidally interacting binary systems
Joshua Burkart, Eliot Quataert, Phil Arras
We examine the dynamics of resonance locking in detached, tidally interacting binary systems. In a resonance lock, a given stellar or planetary mode is trapped in a highly resonant…
Galaxies on FIRE (Feedback In Realistic Environments): Stellar Feedback Explains Cosmologically Inefficient Star Formation
Philip F. Hopkins, Dusan Keres, Jose Onorbe +4
We present a series of high-resolution cosmological simulations of galaxy formation to z=0, spanning halo masses ~10^8-10^13 M_sun, and stellar masses ~10^4-10^11. Our simulations…
The Role of Magnetic Fields in Starburst Galaxies as Revealed by OH Megamasers
James McBride, Eliot Quataert, Carl Heiles +1
We present estimates of magnetic field strengths in the interstellar media of starburst galaxies derived from measurements of Zeeman splitting associated with OH megamasers. The re…
Hot Galactic Winds Constrained by the X-Ray Luminosities of Galaxies
Dong Zhang, Todd A. Thompson, Norman Murray +1
Galactic superwinds may be driven by very hot outflows generated by overlapping supernovae within the host galaxy. We use the Chevalier & Clegg (CC85) wind model and the observed c…
Perpendicular Ion Heating by Reduced Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
Qian Xia, Jean C. Perez, Benjamin D. G. Chandran +1
Recent theoretical studies argue that the rate of stochastic ion heating in low-frequency Alfvén-wave turbulence is given by , where is…
Setting the Stage for Circumstellar Interaction in Core-Collapse Supernovae II: Wave-Driven Mass Loss in Supernova Progenitors
Joshua H. Shiode, Eliot Quataert
Supernovae (SNe) powered by interaction with circumstellar material provide evidence for intense stellar mass loss during the final years leading up to core collapse. We have argue…
