Stellar Physics and General Relativity

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The general theory of relativity is currently established as the most precise theory of gravity supported by observations, and its application is diverse ranging from astronomy to cosmology, while its application to astrophysics has been restricted only to compact stars due to the assumption that the Newtonian approximation is sufficient for ...

Exploring Dark Photon Production and Kinetic Mixing Constraints in Heavy‐Ion Collisions

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector U‐bosons, often referred to as “dark photons,” are potential candidates for mediating dark matter interactions. In this study, we outline a procedure to derive theoretical constraints on the upper bound of the kinetic mixing parameter ϵ2MU$$ {\upvarepsilon}^2\left({M}_U\right) $$ using dilepton data from heavy‐ion from SIS to RHIC ...

Astrophysics in S.Co.P.E

open access: yes, 2008
S.Co.P.E. is one of the four projects funded by the Italian Government in order to provide Southern Italy with a distributed computing infrastructure for fundamental science. Beside being aimed at building the infrastructure, S.Co.P.E. is also actively pursuing research in several areas among which astrophysics and observational cosmology.

Simple scaling laws for astrophysical jets [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
The idea of a unified model for all astrophysical jets has been considered for quite some time. We present here a few scaling laws relevant to all type of astrophysical jets, analogous to those of \citet{sams96} which are widely used for astrophysical black holes.

A Slowly Pulsating Run‐Away B Star at High Galactic Latitude Ejected From a Spiral Arm

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report the discovery of the young B6 V run‐away star LAMOST J083323.18 + 430825.4, 2.5 kpc above the Galactic plane. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined from LAMOST spectra, indicating normal composition. Effective temperature (Teff$$ {T}_{\mathrm{eff}} $$ = 14,500$$ \mathrm{14,500} $$ K) and gravity (logg ...

Cosmic Accelerators [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
I discuss the scientific rationale and opportunities in the study of high energy particle accelerators away from the Earth; mostly, those outside the Solar System. I also briefly outline the features to be desired in telescopes used to probe accelerators studied by remote sensing.

What if I fail? Examining the association between avoidance motivation and research career intentions

open access: yesThe Career Development Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated how avoidance motivation, which entails a fear of failure and focus on avoiding negative outcomes, influences adolescents’ aspirations toward scientific research careers. Participants consisted of 245 high school students participating in a summer science enrichment program. Results of a hierarchical regression analysis

Problems in Astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1903
THE triple alliance of astronomy, physics and chemistry has extended the boundaries of each in unexpected directions. Astronomy is no longer a dependency of mathematics, but an independent power having a high place in the hierarchy of the physical sciences; instruments of research in physics have been turned from earth to sky, and chemistry now looks ...

Prediction of nuclear reaction rates for astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yesProc. IX workshop "Nuclear Astrophysics", eds. W. Hillebrandt, E. Mueller (MPA/P10, Garching 1998), p. 84, 2000
This is an overview over the prediction of astrophysical reaction rates in the statistical model, with special emphasis on the parametrization of optical alpha+nucleus potentials.

Exploring Economic Conflict Through the Gravitational Field Model of Trade: Markets, Wars, and Instability

open access: yesConflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Building on Walter Isard's location and gravity theories in economics, we extend his trade model to better understand its core principles, including commercial attraction, center of gravity in markets, and favorable location for exporting firms.
