The Complex Structure of the Bulge of M31

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The bulge of M31 is of interest regarding the nature of galactic bulges and how their structure relates to bulge formation mechanisms and their subsequent evolution.

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

An Equilibrium Model of the Galaxy Determined by Element Abundance Gradients

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a method to determine the gravitational potential of the Milky Way from measurements of the locations, velocities, and element abundances of stars in the Galactic disk.

The 3-Dimensional Structure of NGC 891 and M51

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the three-dimensional structure of the nearby edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 891 using 3D Monte Carlo radiative transfer models, with realistic spiral structure and fractally clumped dust.

Quantifying the Impact of Relativistic Precession on Tidal Disruption Event Light Curves

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The tidal field of a black hole can turn a star into a gas stream whose orbit can precess, especially if the a black hole is rapidly spinning. In this work, we investigate the impact of precession on the light curves of tidal disruption events (TDE).

Understanding Degradation Mechanisms in Water‐In‐Salt Electrolyte. Part 2: Impact of the Electrochemical Parameters on the Cycling Behavior of LiFePO4 versus TiS2

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, EarlyView.
Cycling water‐in‐salt batteries involves complex degradation processes that require multiprobe analysis. Using online electrochemical mass spectrometry (OEMS), postmortem X‐ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) (including hard‐XPS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the degradation mechanisms are examined in composite electrodes (TiS2 and LiFePO4)

Accelerated Structural Evolution of Galaxies in a Starbursting Cluster at z = 2.51

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Structural properties of cluster galaxies during their peak formation epoch, z ∼ 2–4 provide key information on whether and how the environment affects galaxy formation and evolution.

Automated Quantitative Description of Spiral Galaxy Arm-Segment Structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We describe a system for the automatic quantification of structure in spiral galaxies. This enables translation of sky survey images into data needed to help address fundamental astrophysical questions such as the origin of spiral structure---a ...
