The Role of Dwarf Galaxy Interactions in Shaping the Magellanic System and Implications for Magellanic Irregulars

open access: yes, 2012
We present a novel pair of numerical models of the interaction history between the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC, respectively) and our Milky Way (MW) in light of recent high precision proper motions (Kallivayalil et al. 2006a,b).

Multipurpose Transparent Nanocomposites for Gamma Spectroscopy, Pulse Shape Discrimination, Thermal Neutron Detection, Radiation Shielding, and High Refractive Index Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Materials exist that are useful for gamma scintillation, radiation shielding, neutron‐gamma pulse shape discrimination (PSD), thermal neutron detection, or high refractive index applications. While certain materials have exhibited optimal performance for each of these applications, none achieve multiple functions.

Coupled Disk-star Evolution in Galactic Nuclei and the Lifetimes of QPE Sources

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A modest fraction of the stars in galactic nuclei fed toward the central supermassive black hole (SMBH) approach on low-eccentricity orbits driven by gravitational-wave radiation (extreme mass ratio inspiral (EMRI)).

“Three-integral”, collision-free statistical mechanics and stellar systems [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1979
In a recent paper, Innanen and Papp (1977) have introduced and discussed the behaviour of a function they called the “super angular momentum,” ht2. This quantity, although not formally an integral of motion in the classical definition, is nevertheless a straightforward generalization of the classical total angular momentum.

On inelastic hydrogen atom collisions in stellar atmospheres

open access: yes, 2011
The influence of inelastic hydrogen atom collisions on non-LTE spectral line formation has been, and remains to be, a significant source of uncertainty for stellar abundance analyses, due to the difficulty in obtaining accurate data for low-energy atomic

Frontier Advances of Emerging High‐Entropy Anodes in Alkali Metal‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Recent advances in microscopic morphology control of high‐entropy anode materials for alkali metal‐ion batteries. Abstract With the growing demand for sustainable energy, portable energy storage systems have become increasingly critical. Among them, the development of rechargeable batteries is primarily driven by breakthroughs in electrode materials ...

Response of the LMC’s Bar to a Recent SMC Collision and Implications for the SMC’s Dark Matter Profile

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The LMC’s stellar bar is offset from the outer disk center, tilted from the disk plane, and does not drive gas inflows. These properties are atypical of bars in gas-rich galaxies, yet the LMC bar’s strength and radius are similar to typical barred ...

Prenucleation Species Dictate Foreign Ion Incorporation in the Biomineral Precursor Amorphous Calcium Carbonate

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ACC forms via aggregating prenucleation clusters that gatekeep its chemical composition. Ion identity steers the path: Ba and Sr substitute Ca in clusters, thereby inhibiting nucleation, with a dose‐dependent switch of Sr to induction. Mg partitions into Mg‐rich and Mg‐poor clusters; the latter form ACC, expelling Mg.

Gravitationally Induced Explosive Outflows

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Over the past decade, there has been a significant increase in the reporting of extensive and luminous star-forming regions associated with explosive outflows.
