VLTI-AMBER velocity-resolved aperture-synthesis imaging of η Carinae with a spectral resolution of 12 000 - Studies of the primary star wind and innermost wind-wind collision zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Context. The mass loss from massive stars is not understood well. η Carinae is a unique object for studying the massive stellar wind during the luminous blue variable phase. It is also an eccentric binary with a period of 5.54 yr.

The rate of WD-WD head-on collisions in isolated triples is too low to explain standard type Ia supernovae

open access: yes, 2017
Type Ia supernovae (Ia-SNe) are thought to arise from the thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs (WDs). The progenitors of such explosions are still highly debated; in particular the conditions leading to detonations in WDs are not well understood in ...

Bullet Shooting Cloud–Cloud Collision in MIR Bubble N65

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report that the formation of the twin-bubble system N65 and N65bis may be caused by the cloud–cloud collision (CCC) from the Bullet Nebula. The blueshifted ^13 CO gas component (N65a [47, 55] km s ^−1 ) is associated with the twin-bubble system, while

Is There a Relationship between the Density of Primordial Black Holes in a Galaxy and the Rate of Cosmological Gamma-Ray Bursts?

open access: yes, 2007
The rate of accretion of matter from a solar-type star onto a primordial black hole (PBH) that passes through it is calculated. The probability that a PBH is captured into an orbit around a star in a galaxy is found.

Collisional Shaping of Nuclear Star Cluster Density Profiles

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
A supermassive black hole surrounded by a dense, nuclear star cluster resides at the center of many galaxies. In this dense environment, high-velocity collisions frequently occur between stars.

An S-shaped Filament Formed Due to Cloud–Cloud Collision in Molecular Cloud G178.28-00.61

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present compelling observational evidence supporting G178.28-00.61 as an early-stage candidate for cloud–cloud collision (CCC), with indications of the formation of an S-shaped filament, evenly separated dense cores, and young star clusters.

Multiple Beads on a String: Dark-matter-deficient Galaxy Formation in a Mini-Bullet Satellite–Satellite Galaxy Collision

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Dark-matter-deficient galaxies (DMDGs) discovered in the survey of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs), in apparent conflict with standard cold dark matter, may be produced by high-velocity galaxy–galaxy collisions, the so-called Mini-Bullet scenario.

Modulated Gamma-ray emission from compact millisecond pulsar binary systems

open access: yes, 2013
A significant amount of the millisecond pulsars has been discovered within binary systems. In several such binary systems the masses of the companion stars have been derived allowing to distinguish two classes of objects, called the Black Widow and the ...

Collision of ultra-relativistic proton with strong magnetic field: Production of ultra-high energy photons and neutrinos

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2019
Proton-proton interaction and photo-hadronic interaction in cosmic accelerators are the two main channels for the production of cosmic ultra-high energy photons and neutrinos (TeV-PeV).

Nuclear reactions in hot stellar matter and nuclear surface deformation

open access: yes, 2006
Cross-sections for capture reactions of charged particles in hot stellar matter turn out be increased by the quadrupole surface oscillations, if the corresponding phonon energies are of the order of the star temperature.
