Characterizing Sky Variability For Multi-Messenger Astronomy, Rachel K. Nydegger, Katie Breivik, Shane L. Larson Ph.D.

Multi-messenger astronomy employs both electromagnetic and gravitational -wave detectors to paint a richer picture of celestial objects, providing more depth and information. The interferometers utilized for gravitational-wave observations receive input from very broad fields of view on the sky, typically a few square degrees. To have simultaneous electromagnetic observations (typically less than one square degree) requires innovative techniques for the telescopes to find the origin of radiation. One idea is to “tile” the view of the interferometer, using multiple telescopes to simultaneously point at different areas of the field to observe the source. One di"culty of this observing paradigm is …
Relativistic Solution Of The N-Body Problem (Ii), Jorge A. Franco
Relativistic Solution Of The N-Body Problem (Ii), Jorge A. Franco
Jorge A Franco
This work is the continuation of the classical approach described in previous paper for constant masses. In here the solution of the movement of a group of N gravitationally attracting bodies around its center of mass CM, given their initial positions and velocities, is developed for variable masses under the Theory of Vectorial Relativity. The strategy of realizing special physical characteristics of forces on the the CM and properties of the reduced mass in the solution of the two-body problem, allowed extending the Newton’s Universal Gravitation Law for applying to two or more attracting bodies, and also allowed operating on …
N-Body Problem’S Global Solution I. Classical Approach, Jorge A. Franco
N-Body Problem’S Global Solution I. Classical Approach, Jorge A. Franco
Jorge A Franco
The prediction of the movement of a group of N gravitationally attracting bodies around its center of mass CM, given their initial positions and velocities, is what has been called the N-body problem, since Isaac Newton formulated it in his magnum work Phylosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, commonly known as his "Principia" published in 1667. So far it has only been fully resolved (Johan Bernoulli in 1710) the problem of two bodies from the classical view, using Newton's laws. For N>2 in some cases only approximate, or not general, solutions exist. In this work the strategy of realizing physical properties …

Cosmic Ray Particles Images With Orca-Ii Erg, George Mcnamara

Cosmic ray particles image series acquired using a Hamamatsu ORCA-II ERG scientific grade CCD camera, cooled to -60 C. Each image is a consecutive 600 second (10 minute) exposure time with no light to the camera.
While processing the data, I discoverd that the background changed around planes 25 and 227 (see Excel file and jpeg screenshots), so I also processed only planes 025-227 (203 planes total, 2030 minutes, 33.83 hours). the CCD industry "rule of thumb" for a "typical" CCD sensor (i.e. 1/3" CCD) is that one cosmic ray particle strikes a sensor approximately every 30 seconds (assuming not …
Unmasking The Mysteries Of High-Mass X-Ray Binaries (Hmxbs): The Role Of The Electron Beam Ion Trap (Ebit), Carey L. Baxter, Greg Brown, Natalie Hell
Unmasking The Mysteries Of High-Mass X-Ray Binaries (Hmxbs): The Role Of The Electron Beam Ion Trap (Ebit), Carey L. Baxter, Greg Brown, Natalie Hell
Carey L Baxter
The Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT) uses a very narrow electron beam (~60μm) to excite and trap ions. X-ray emissions of the excited ions are then diffracted and analyzed. I studied specific spectral emission lines of ionized silicon. This data can be used as a point of reference for similar spectra measured by the satellite Chandra so that the Doppler shift due to wind around the accretion disks of High Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) can be calculated. HMXBs are pairs of stars that are luminous in X-rays. They are composed of a donor star that gives up mass to an …

Essentials Of The Theory Of Abstraction - Lecture, Subhajit Kumar Ganguly

In not favouring solutions or sets of solutions, the principle of zero-postulation drives away any unwanted incompleteness from the description of the world. It is the interactions between the possible exhaustive set of solutions that creates the impression pointedness or directiveness in the universe, leading to the formation of clusters, as discussed earlier. These interactions may be chaotic in nature, giving rise to attractor points where the directiveness inside any given system asymptotically seem to approach. It is this directiveness, in turn, inside a given system or in the universe as a whole, that is the cause of all known …
