Proprioception drives tension wood formation for autotropic straightening and postural control in trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proprioception controls trunk straightness in trees through opposite tension wood formation. A spherical growth chamber (a), combined with a two‐dimensional rotating clinostat (b2), suppresses gravi‐ and phototropic sensing. The tree is first tilted horizontally (b1), triggering upward gravitropic bending, actuated by tension wood formation on the ...

Dynamics of millicharged dark matter in supernova remnants [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2020
Dark matter could have a small electromagnetic charge, provided the charge-to-mass ratio is much less than that of electrons or protons. This candidate, commonly known as millicharged dark matter (mDM), would form a plasma and interact with the interstellar medium and electromagnetic fields within galaxies. In general, understanding the dynamics of mDM

A Theory for Neutron Star and Black Hole Kicks and Induced Spins

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using 20 long-term 3D core-collapse supernova simulations, we find that lower compactness progenitors that explode quasi-spherically due to the short delay to explosion experience smaller neutron star recoil kicks in the ∼100−200 km s ^−1 range, while ...

Shock Breakout from Stellar Envelopes: The Relativistic Limit

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We calculate the observed luminosity and spectrum following the emergence of a relativistic shock wave from a stellar edge. Shock waves propagating at 0.6 < Γ _sh β _sh , where Γ _sh is the shock Lorentz factor, and β _sh is its associated reduced ...

Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

Supernova Dynamics and Explosive Nucleosynthesis

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2012
Nuclear physics plays a crucial role in various aspects of core collapse supernovae. The collapse dynamic is strongly influenced by electron captures. Using modern many-body theory improved capture rates have been derived recently with the important result that the process is dominated by capture on nuclei until neutrino trapping is achieved. Following

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 ...

Neutrino-nucleus reactions and their role in supernova dynamics and nucleosynthesis

open access: yes, 2018
Neutrino reactions on nuclei play important roles for the dynamics of supernovae and their associated nucleosynthesis. This manuscript summarizes the current status in deriving the relevant cross sections for supernova neutrinos and briefly discusses a ...
