The Hough Stream Spotter: A New Method for Detecting Linear Structure in Resolved Stars and Application to the Stellar Halo of M31

Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Sarah Pearson, Susan E. Clark, Alexis J. Demirjian, Kathryn V. Johnston, Melissa K. Ness | Summary: Stellar streams from globular clusters (GCs) offer constraints on the nature of dark matter and have been used to explore the dark matter halo structure and substructure of our Galaxy. […]

High conductivity Polarization-induced 2D hole gases in Undoped GaN/AlN Heterojunctions enabled by Impurity Blocking Layers

Kavli Affiliate: Grace Xing | First 5 Authors: Reet Chaudhuri, Zhen Chen, David Muller, Huili Grace Xing, Debdeep Jena | Summary: High-conductivity undoped GaN/AlN 2D hole gases (2DHGs), the p-type dual of the AlGaN/GaN 2D electron gases (2DEGs), have offered valuable insights into hole transport in GaN and enabled the first GaN GHz RF p-channel […]

Evidence of Accretion Burst: The Viscously Heated Inner Disk of the Embedded Protostar IRAS 16316-1540

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Sung-Yong Yoon, Jeong-Eun Lee, Seokho Lee, Gregory J. Herczeg, Sunkyung Park | Summary: Outbursts of young stellar objects occur when the mass accretion rate suddenly increases. However, such outbursts are difficult to detect for deeply embedded protostars due to their thick envelope and the rarity of […]
