Metallic hydrogen [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2018
For over eighty years, scientists have been trying to produce lab-made metallic hydrogen, the holy grail of alternative fuels. In that process, diamond anvils must withstand pressures greater than those at the center of the earth—no mean feat. Recent research may have finally achieved hydrogen’s metallic state.

Photometric Metallicity and Distance Estimates for ∼136,000 RR Lyrae Stars from Gaia Data Release 3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a sample of 135,873 RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) with precise photometric metallicity and distance estimates from our newly calibrated P – ϕ _31 – R _21 –[Fe/H]/ P – R _21 –[Fe/H] and G -band absolute magnitude–metallicity relations.

Spintronic phase transition of graphene/BN/graphene van de Waals heterostructures

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2022
Based on a single-orbital tight-binding (TB) Hubbard model under mean-field approximation, we study band structure and half-metallicity of zigzag graphene/boron nitride/graphene (Z-G/BN/G) trilayer nanoribbon systems.

Cluster melting: new, limiting, and liminal phenomena

open access: yesAdvances in Physics: X, 2018
The thermodynamic behaviour of clusters and nanoscale structures is both a challenge to the statistical basis of the theory, and of paramount importance to experiment.

Metallicity gradients in local field star-forming galaxies: Insights on inflows, outflows, and the coevolution of gas, stars and metals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present metallicity gradients in 49 local field star-forming galaxies. We derive gas-phase oxygen abundances using two widely adopted metallicity calibrations based on the [OIII]/Hbeta, [NII]/Halpha and [NII]/[OII] line ratios.

On the metallicity dependence of HMXBs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
It is commonly assumed that high mass X-ray binary (HMXB) populations are little-affected by metallicity. However, the massive stars making up their progenitor systems depend on metallicity in a number of ways, not least through their winds.

Binary Formation in Star-Forming Clouds with Various Metallicities

open access: yes, 2008
Cloud evolution for various metallicities is investigated by three-dimensional nested grid simulations, in which the initial ratio of rotational to gravitational energy of the host cloud \beta_0 (=10^-1 - 10^-6) and cloud metallicity Z (=0 - Z_\odot) are

Cooling Flows and Metallicity Gradients in Clusters of Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The X-ray emission by hot gas at the centers of clusters of galaxies is commonly modeled assuming the existence of steady-state, inhomogeneous cooling flows. We derive the metallicity profiles of the intracluster medium expected from such models.

The Period Distribution of Hot Jupiters Is Not Dependent on Host Star Metallicity

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The probability that a Sun-like star has a close-orbiting giant planet (period ≲1 yr) increases with stellar metallicity. Previous work provided evidence that the period distribution of close-orbiting giant planets is also linked to metallicity, hinting ...

New age-metallicity diagnostic diagram for the Washington photometric system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The age calibration of the Washington deltaT1 index is mainly used to estimate ages of star clusters older than 1 Gyr, no age-metallicity degeneracy effect is considered.
