Thermal Spectra of Warped and Broken Accretion Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Black holes may accrete gas with angular momentum vectors misaligned with the black hole spin axis. The resulting accretion disks are subject to Lense–Thirring precession, and hence torque. Analytical calculations and simulations show that Lense–Thirring

Stellar Black Holes Can “Stretch” Supermassive Black Hole Accretion Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Abstract Stellar black holes (sBHs) are widely believed to exist in the accretion disks of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Previous studies often focus on the transient emission produced by embedded sBHs. Here, we explore the possible observational consequences of an AGN accretion disk that contains a population of accreting sBHs ...

Flexible Tactile Actuator Arrays With Integrated Electroosmotic Pumps for Wearable Haptic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
1 ×$\times$ 9 and 4 ×$\times$ 4 flexible tactile actuator arrays integrating electroosmotic pumps are developed to deliver pressure and vibration feedback on wearable platforms. Their thin, compliant structure conforms seamlessly to curved body surfaces, providing intimate contact and enhanced haptic sensations.

Accretion-powered stellar winds as a solution to the stellar angular momentum problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We compare the angular momentum extracted by a wind from a pre-main-sequence star to the torques arising from the interaction between the star and its Keplerian accretion disk.

The ALMA Survey of Gas Evolution of PROtoplanetary Disks (AGE-PRO). VI. Comparison of Dust Evolution Models to AGE-PRO Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The potential for planet formation of a circumstellar disk depends on the dust and gas reservoirs, which evolve as a function of the disk age. The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array AGE-PRO Large Program has measured several disk properties ...

In Situ Two‐Dimensional Residual Stress Characterization of Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An integrated in situ curvature metrology platform combining speckle‐based curvature optical metrology (SCOM) with multi‐beam optical sensors (MOS) enables spatially resolved two‐dimensional curvature mapping of thick sputtered coatings. The SCOM technique provides excellent agreement with MOS while providing an extended measurable curvature range ...

Simulating supernova feedback in galaxy disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this thesis I examine supernova feedback in hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy disks. Understanding this process entails the numerical evaluation of cooling in radiative shocks, and we present a set of simulations using two widely used numerical ...

exoALMA. XII. Weighing and Sizing exoALMA Disks with Rotation Curve Modelling

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The exoALMA large program offers a unique opportunity to investigate the fundamental properties of protoplanetary disks, such as their masses and sizes, providing important insights into the mechanism responsible for the transport of angular momentum. In

Environmental interactions in class II systems and their impact on the disk-planet architecture

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Protoplanetary disks evolve in clustered environments where interactions with nearby stars and interstellar gas are common. Such environmental processes, including stellar flybys and gas infall, can significantly perturb disk structures over a ...
