Feedback from OB stars on their parent cloud: Gas exhaustion rather than gas ejection

pjcigan/multicolorfits 21 Jun 2019

In the present study, we take advantage of the unique properties of the G316. 75-00. 00 high-mass star-forming ridge to determine how feedback from O-stars impacts the dynamical stability of filaments.

NLTE Spectra of Kilonovae

flexible-atomic-code/fac 3 Sep 2023

We suggest the Rb I $\rm{5p^{1}}$- $\rm{5s^{1}}$ 7900 angstrom transition as a candidate for the $\lambda_0 \sim$ 7500--7900 angstrom P-Cygni feature in AT2017gfo.

$\texttt{GRASS}$: Distinguishing Planet-induced Doppler Signatures from Granulation with a Synthetic Spectra Generator

palumbom/grass 22 Oct 2021

To address this deficit, we present the GRanulation And Spectrum Simulator ($\texttt{GRASS}$), a new tool designed to create time-series synthetic spectra with granulation-driven variability from spatially- and temporally-resolved observations of solar absorption lines.

$\texttt{pySYD}$: Automated measurements of global asteroseismic parameters

ashleychontos/pySYD 2 Aug 2021

Several tools have been developed for asteroseismic analyses but many of them are closed-source and therefore not accessible to the general astronomy community.

The buildup of galaxies and their spheroids: the contributions of mergers, disc instabilities and star formation

swiftsim/swiftsim 14 Jul 2022

Disc instabilities and their associated starbursts dominate for intermediate-mass spheroids ($10^{8. 5}<M_\mathrm{*, sph}<10^{11}$ M$_\odot$) at $z=0$.

Accuracy of environmental tracers and consequence for determining the Type Ia Supernovae magnitude step

martinbriday/pylephare 6 Sep 2021

The dependency of the intrinsic luminosity of SNe Ia with their host-galaxy environment is often used to standardize SNe Ia luminosity and is commonly parameterized as a step function.
