Cooling of a New Born Compact Star with QCD Phase Transition
K. -W. Wong, M. -C. Chu
We study the cooling behaviour of an isolated strange quark star, using an equation of state derived from perturbative QCD up to second order in strong coupling constant, and we co…
A Taxonomy of Extended Radio Sources in Clusters of Galaxies
Joshua C. Kempner, Elizabeth L. Blanton, Tracy E. Clarke +3
At the request of the conference attendees, we have compiled a classification of extended radio sources in clusters. These range from scales of tens of parsecs to over a megaparsec…
Signatures of QCD Phase Transition in a Newborn Compact Star
K. -W. Wong, M. -C. Chu
We study the scenario that a new born strange quark star cools to the Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD) phase transition temperature and converts to a neutron star, and we calculate the…
Star Formation Processes versus Planet Formation Processes
Shiv S. Kumar
The processes of star formation are fundamentally different from those of planet formation. Since the mass of a very-low-mass object alone doesn't allow us to uniquely determine it…
The Bottom of the Main Sequence and Beyond: Speculations, Calculations, Observations, and Discoveries (1958-2002)
Shiv S. Kumar
In this paper, I briefly review the theoretical and observational work done since 1958 on the gaseous objects with mass below the H-burning limit. Special attention is paid to the…
Optical & NIR Surface Photometry of I Zw 18
P. Papaderos, Yu. I. Izotov, K. G. Noeske +2
Using HST and ground-based optical and NIR data, we investigate whether the blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy I Zw 18 has an extended low-surface-brightness (LSB) older stellar popul…
