ϕ-dwarfs: white dwarfs probe quadratically coupled scalars

Journal of High Energy Physics
We study ultralight scalar fields with quadratic couplings to Standard-Model fermions and derive strong constraints from white-dwarf mass-radius data. Such couplings source scalar profiles inside compact stars, shift fermion masses, and can produce a new

Unveiling the “Gray Zone”: Characterizing Young People's Moderate STEM Identities

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how students identify with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) is crucial for fostering broader and more equitable participation within these fields. While existing research has focused on students who either strongly identify with STEM or disengage from it, this study explores the moderate STEM identities of ...

Rotation of White Dwarf Stars

, 2014
I discuss and consider the status of observational determinations of the rotation velocities of white dwarf stars via asteroseismology and spectroscopy. While these observations have important implications on our understanding of the angular momentum evolution of stars in their late stages of evolution, more direct methods are sorely needed to ...
