Multimessenger Astronomy: Modeling Gravitational And Electromagnetic Radiations From A Stellar Binary System, Kevin Kern

Bridges: A Journal of Student Research

Our Sun is one of roughly 100 billion other stars that make up the Milky Way Galaxy. Two-thirds of all stars are paired off, with a gravitational bond between the two stars. Such systems are known as stellar binaries. Although these binaries are very common in the galaxy, there is much yet to be learned about their formation, evolution, and interactions. The approach taken in this thesis is to produce simulated data representing the expected measurements that an observational astronomer would collect. We attempt to simulate three different stellar binary star systems: an eclipsing binary, a spectroscopic binary, and a …

Interacting Dark Energy Models And The Cosmic Coincidence Problem, H. Shojaei, C. Smith, D. Waters Jan 2012

Interacting Dark Energy Models And The Cosmic Coincidence Problem, H. Shojaei, C. Smith, D. Waters

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Interacting dark energy models have been employed to study the behavior of dark energy and matter in the presence of an interaction between the two. One of the successful aspects of these models is how they explain the cosmic coincidence problem. In this work we consider a specific interaction to study the behavior of dark energy and matter through the history of evolution.
