Journal ArticleDOI
A Magnetar Origin for the Kilonova Ejecta in GW170817
TL;DR: In this paper, the neutrino-heated, magnetically-accelerated wind from the strongly-magnetized hypermassive NS (HMNS) remnant is proposed as an alternative ejecta source.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possible Evidence for Truncated Thin Disks in the Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei M81 and NGC 4579.
TL;DR: M81 and NGC 4579 are two of the few low-luminosity active galactic nuclei that have an estimated mass for the central black hole, detected hard X-ray emission, and detected optical/UV emission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proto-Neutron Star Winds with Magnetic Fields and Rotation
TL;DR: In this paper, the relativistic axisymmetric simulations of Bucciantini and coworkers were used to map their split-monopole results onto a more physical dipole geometry and to estimate the spin-down of PNSs when their winds are relatvistic.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Gravitational-Wave Recoil on the Demography of Massive Black Holes
Piero Madau,Eliot Quataert +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamics of recoiling massive black hole (MBH) binaries following galaxy mergers is studied and its effects on the demography of MBHs at the centers of galaxies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resonance locking as the source of rapid tidal migration in the Jupiter and Saturn moon systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the inner moons of Jupiter and Saturn migrate outwards due to tidal energy dissipation within the planets, the details of which remain poorly understood, and it is shown that resonance locking between moons and internal oscillation modes of the planet can produce rapid tidal migration.
