LSST Science Book, Version 2.0
LSST Science Collaboration, Paul A. Abell, Julius Allison +245
A survey that can cover the sky in optical bands over wide fields to faint magnitudes with a fast cadence will enable many of the exciting science opportunities of the next decade.…
The Deuterium Abundance in the Local Interstellar Medium
Tijana Prodanovic, Gary Steigman, Brian D. Fields
As the Galaxy evolves, the abundance of deuterium in the interstellar medium (ISM) decreases from its primordial value: deuterium is "astrated". The deuterium astration factor, f_D…
Nucleosynthesis Constraints on a Massive Gravitino in Neutralino Dark Matter Scenarios
Richard H. Cyburt, John Ellis, Brian D. Fields +3
The decays of massive gravitinos into neutralino dark matter particles and Standard Model secondaries during or after Big-Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) may alter the primordial light-…
Cosmic Core-Collapse Supernovae from Upcoming Sky Surveys
Amy Lien, Brian D. Fields
Large synoptic (repeated scan) imaging sky surveys are poised to observe enormous numbers of core-collapse supernovae. We quantify the discovery potential of upcoming projects, inc…
The Implications of a High Cosmic-Ray Ionization Rate in Diffuse Interstellar Clouds
Nick Indriolo, Brian D. Fields, Benjamin J. McCall
Diffuse interstellar clouds show large abundances of H_3^+ which can be maintained only by a high ionization rate of H_2. Cosmic rays are the dominant ionization mechanism in this…
