Discovery of a second-generation planet candidate accreting onto a white dwarf
Jamie T. Williams, Boris T. Gänsicke, Nicholas C. Stone +10
Many white dwarfs accrete the debris of disrupted planetary bodies, detected in the form of metal-enrichment in their atmospheres, dusty or gaseous circumstellar discs, and photome…
Counting the Unseen I: Nuclear Density Scaling Relations for Nucleated Galaxies
Christian H. Hannah, Anil C. Seth, Nicholas C. Stone +1
The volumetric rate of tidal disruption events (TDEs) encodes information on the still-unknown demographics of central massive black holes (MBHs) in low-mass galaxies ($\lesssim 10…
The chaotic four-body problem in Newtonian gravity -- II. An ansatz-based approach to analytic solutions
Carlos M. Barrera Retamal, Nathan W. C. Leigh, Nicholas C. Stone
In this paper, we continue our analysis of the chaotic four-body problem by presenting a general ansatz-based analytic treatment using statistical mechanics, where each outcome of…
The Effect of Thermal Torques on AGN Disc Migration Traps and Gravitational Wave Populations
Evgeni Grishin, Shmuel Gilbaum, Nicholas C. Stone
Accretion discs in active galactic nuclei (AGN) foster black hole (BH) formation, growth, and mergers. Stellar mass BHs migrate inwards under the influence of hydrodynamical torque…
Heating Galaxy Clusters with Interacting Dark Matter
Yutaro Shoji, Eric Kuflik, Yuval Birnboim +1
The overcooling of cool core clusters is a persistent puzzle in the astrophysics of galaxy clusters. We propose that it may naturally be resolved via interactions between the baryo…
ULTRASAT: A wide-field time-domain UV space telescope
Y. Shvartzvald, E. Waxman, A. Gal-Yam +41
The Ultraviolet Transient Astronomy Satellite (ULTRASAT) is scheduled to be launched to geostationary orbit in 2026. It will carry a telescope with an unprecedentedly large field o…
