The Case for Hypercritical Accretion in M33 X-7

E. Moreno Mendez, G. E. Brown, C. -H. Lee +1

The spin parameter of the black hole in M33 X-7 has recently been measured to be a*=0.77+-0.05 (Liu et al. 2008). It has been proposed that the spin of the 15.65 M_sun black hole i…

LMC X-3 May Be a Relic of a GRB Similar to Cosmological GRBs

G. E. Brown, C. -H. Lee, E. Moreno Mendez

The present scenario for high-luminosity long gamma-ray bursts is strongly influenced by the paper of Fruchter et al. (2006). Whereas the main contention of this paper that these G…

Kerr Parameters for Stellar Mass Black Holes and Their Consequences for GRBs and Hypernovae

E. Moreno Mendez, G. E. Brown, C. -H. Lee +1

Recent measurements of the Kerr parameters a* for two black-hole binaries in our Galaxy (Shafee et al. 2006), GRO J1655-40 and 4U 1543-47 of a*=0.65-0.75 and a*=0.75-0.85, respecti…

And Don't Forget The Black Holes

H. A. Bethe, G. E. Brown, C. -H. Lee

The discovery of the highly relativistic neutron star (NS) binary (in which both NS's are pulsars) not only increases the estimated merging rate for the two NS's by a large factor,…

What Hath RHIC Wrought ? : The Chiral Restoration Phase Transition Found at RHIC

G. E. Brown, C. -H. Lee, M. Rho

Given Brown/Rho scaling we thought of the mesons which are observed in Nambu-Jona Lasinio theory as collective modes. The pi, sigma, rho and A_1, should go smoothly through T_c as…

The Instanton Molecule Liquid and "Sticky Molasses" Above T_c

G. E. Brown, C. -H. Lee, M. Rho +1

The main objective of this work is to explore the evolution in the structure of the quark-antiquark bound states in going down in the chirally restored phase from the so-called "ze…
