Zeroth and second laws of black hole mechanics in Einstein-Maxwell-scalar effective field theory Phys. Rev. D (IF 5.0) Pub Date : 2024-04-23 Iain Davies
There has been recent progress in extending the zeroth and second laws of black hole mechanics to gravitational effective field theories (EFTs). We generalize these results to a much larger class of EFTs describing gravity coupled to electromagnetism and a real scalar field. We also show that the zeroth law holds for the EFT of gravity coupled to electromagnetism and a charged scalar field.

Maintaining spherical polarization in solar wind plasma Nat. Astron. (IF 14.1) Pub Date : 2024-04-22 Bishwanath Gaire
The solar wind consists of plasma with fluctuating velocity and magnetic fields in a manner often referred to as Alfvénic. A magnetic field (B) and its fluctuation (δB) with only a small change in its intensity (that is, δB/B ~1) is called spherical polarization. For large-amplitude magnetic fields, this condition (δB/B ~1) is equivalent to the rotation of the magnetic field vector. When the plasma

Magnetic Reconnection on Z experiments Nat. Astron. (IF 14.1) Pub Date : 2024-04-22 Bishwanath Gaire
Magnetic energy in magnetized plasma is converted into kinetic energy through magnetic reconnection; a phenomenon that commonly occurs in astrophysical plasma and has been observed in laboratory plasma. Radiative cooling can disrupt such an energy transfer process. Rishabh Datta et al. have studied strong radiative cooling in a laboratory experiment called Magnetic Reconnection on Z (MARZ), using the

Comparing models for a unitary black hole S matrix Phys. Rev. D (IF 5.0) Pub Date : 2024-04-23 Steven B. Giddings
This paper compares features, challenges, and puzzles of different models for a unitary black hole S-matrix, focusing on both recent nonisometric models, as well as “nonviolent unitarization,” which is based on new quantum interactions of a black hole. As a foundation for comparison, the description of real-time Hawking evolution is first overviewed, including leading effects of gravitational dressing

The Physical Origin of the Stellar Initial Mass Function Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys. (IF 33.3) Pub Date : 2024-04-23 P. Hennebelle, M.Y. Grudić
Stars are among the most fundamental structures of our Universe. They comprise most of the baryonic and luminous mass of galaxies; synthesize heavy elements; and inject mass, momentum, and energy into the interstellar medium. They are also home to the planets. Because stellar properties are primarily decided by their mass, the so-called stellar initial mass function (IMF) is critical to the structuring

Gravitational wave pulse and memory effects for hairy Kiselev black hole and its analogy with Bondi–Sachs formalism Classical Quant. Grav. (IF 3.5) Pub Date : 2024-04-22 H Hadi, Amin Rezaei Akbarieh, David F Mota
The investigation of non-vacuum cosmological backgrounds containing black holes is greatly enhanced by the Kiselev solution. This solution plays a crucial role in understanding the properties of the background and its relationship with the features of the black hole. Consequently, the gravitational memory effects at large distances from the black hole offer a valuable means of obtaining information

Hybrid geometrodynamics: a Hamiltonian description of classical gravity coupled to quantum matter Classical Quant. Grav. (IF 3.5) Pub Date : 2024-04-22 J L Alonso, C Bouthelier-Madre, J Clemente-Gallardo, D Martínez-Crespo
We generalize the Hamiltonian picture of general relativity coupled to classical matter, known as geometrodynamics, to the case where such matter is described by a quantum field theory in curved spacetime, but gravity is still described by a classical metric tensor field over a spatial hypersurface and its associated momentum. Thus, in our approach there is no non-dynamic background structure, apart

Cosmology in Lorentzian Regge calculus: causality violations, massless scalar field and discrete dynamics Classical Quant. Grav. (IF 3.5) Pub Date : 2024-04-22 Alexander F Jercher, Sebastian Steinhaus
We develop a model of spatially flat, homogeneous and isotropic cosmology in Lorentzian Regge calculus, employing four-dimensional Lorentzian frusta as building blocks. By examining the causal structure of the discrete spacetimes obtained by gluing such four-frusta in spatial and temporal direction, we find causality violations if the sub-cells connecting spatial slices are spacelike.

Amorphous thin films of Ti doped GeO2 are of interest for coatings of the mirrors in gravitational wave detectors (GWDs) due to their low internal friction (Vajente et al 2021 Phys. Rev.

However, the specific modifications that occur in the amorphous network with

Generalized K-essence inflation in Jordan and Einstein frames Classical Quant. Grav. (IF 3.5) Pub Date : 2024-04-22 Orlando Luongo, Tommaso Mengoni
We here explore a generalized K-essence model which exhibits characteristics akin to ordinary matter. The inflationary framework proposed aims to unify old with chaotic inflation into a single scheme and it considers minimally and non-minimally coupled scenarios, adopting three classes of potentials, in both Jordan and Einstein frames. We show that, to obtain a suitable amount of particles obtained

Dwarf irregular (dIrrs) galaxies are among the most common type of galaxy in the Universe. They typically have gas-rich, low surface-brightness, metal-poor, and relatively thick disks. Here, we summarize the current state of our knowledge of the interstellar medium (ISM), including atomic, molecular, and ionized gas, along with their dust properties and metals.

The Evolution of Massive Binary Stars Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys. (IF 33.3) Pub Date : 2024-04-19 Pablo Marchant, Julia Bodensteiner
Massive stars play a major role in the evolution of their host galaxies and serve as important probes of the distant Universe. It has been established that the majority of massive stars reside in close binaries and interact with their companion stars during their lifetimes. Such interactions drastically alter their life cycles and complicate our understanding of their evolution, but are also responsible
