Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Tenyo Kawamura, Magnus Axelsson, Chris Done, Tadayuki Takahashi, | Summary: The nature and geometry of the accretion flow in the low/hard state of black hole binaries is currently controversial. While most properties are generally explained in the truncated disc/hot inner flow model, the detection of a broad […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel J. Needleman | First 5 Authors: Bezia Lemma, Noah P. Mitchell, Radhika Subramanian, Daniel J. Needleman, Zvonimir Dogic | Summary: Mixtures of microtubules and molecular motors form active materials with diverse dynamical behaviors that vary based on their constituents’ molecular properties. We map the non-equilibrium phase diagram of microtubules and tip-accumulating kinesin-4 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Sjoert van Velzen, Dheeraj R. Pasham, Stefanie Komossa, Lin Yan, Erin A. Kara | Summary: Stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) are typically discovered by transient emission due to accretion or shocks of the stellar debris. Yet this luminous flare can be reprocessed by gas or dust […]
