Modeling Photoionized Turbulent Material in the Circumgalactic Medium III: Effects of Co-rotation and Magnetic Fields

Edward Buie, Evan Scannapieco, G. Mark Voit

Absorption-line measurements of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) display a highly non-uniform distribution of lower ionization state species accompanied by more widespread higher io…

A New Challenge for Dark Matter Models

Mohammadtaher Safarzadeh, Abraham Loeb

Cold dark matter (CDM) has faced a number of challenges mainly at small scales, such as the too-big-to-fail problem, and core-cusp density profile of dwarf galaxies. Such problems…

Explaining the LIGO black hole mass function with field binaries: Revisiting Stellar Evolution at low Metallicity or Invoking Growth via gas accretion?

Mohammadtaher Safarzadeh, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz

Our understanding of the formation and evolution of binary black holes (BBHs) is significantly impacted by the recent discoveries made by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration. Of utmost im…

The Challenge to MOND from ultra faint dwarf galaxies

Mohammadtaher Safarzadeh, Abraham Loeb

Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) at low acceleration has been astonishingly powerful at explaining the flat rotation curve of galaxies and the relation between the baryonic conte…

How can LISA probe a population of GW190425-like binary neutron stars in the Milky Way?

Valeriya Korol, Mohammadtaher Safarzadeh

The nature of GW190425, a presumed binary neutron star (BNS) merger detected by the LIGO/Virgo Scientific Collaboration (LVC) with a total mass of M,…
