The nature and magnitude of the earliest transitions, hundreds of million years before photosynthesis evolved, remain poorly understood. Using a novel ecosystem-planetary model, we find that pre-photosynthetic methane-cycling microbial ecosystems are much less productive than previously thought. In spite of their low productivity, the evolution of methanogenic metabolisms strongly modifiesRead More →

Promoted Mass Growth of Multiple, Distant Giant Planets through Pebble Accretion and Planet-Planet Collision.

We perform N-body simulations to investigate the growth and migration of low-mass protoplanets in the disk with inner viscously heated and outer stellar irradiated regions. The key feature of this model is that the giant planet cores grow rapidly by a combination of pebble accretion and planet-planet collisions. This consequently speeds up their gas accretion.

While the disformed metric has only a ring singularity and asymptotically is quite similar to Kerr, it is found to be neither Ricci flat nor circular. Non-circularity has far reaching consequences on the structure of the solution. As we approach the rotating compact object from asymptotic infinity we find aRead More →

Exploring the small mass ratio binary black hole merger via Zeno’s dichotomy approach. (arXiv:2006.04818v1 [gr-qc]) <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/gr-qc/1/au:+Lousto_C/0/1/0/all/0/1">Carlos O.

Based on a detailed convergence study of the $q=m_1/m_2=1/15$ nonspinning case, we apply additional mesh refinements levels on the smaller hole horizon to reach the $q=1/32$, $q=1/64$, and $q=1/128$ cases. Roughly linear strong computational scaling with $1/q$ is observed on 8-nodes simulations. We compute the remnant properties of the merger; final mass, spin, and recoil velocity.

Such a coupling modifies the Standard Model particle masses and affects the dynamics of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We model the cosmological evolution of the dark matter, taking into account the modifications of the scalar mass by the environment as well as the full dynamics of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We find that precision measurements of the helium-4 abundance set stringent constraints on the available parameter space, and that these constraints areRead More →

Sensitivity forecasts for the cosmological recombination radiation in the presence of foregrounds.

While it shows a rich spectral structure across dm-mm wavelengths, it is also one of the smallest signals to target.

Our simulations include radiative feedback from both the direct stellar and dust-reprocessed radiation fields, and collimated outflow feedback from the accreting stars.

We show that the broadband spectrum of Tycho’s SNR can alternatively be well explained when accounting for stochastic acceleration as a secondary process. The re-acceleration of particles in the turbulent region immediately downstream of the shock should be efficient enough to impact particle spectra overRead More →

Mannucci</a> We investigated the interstellar medium (ISM) properties in the central regions of nearby Seyfert galaxies characterised by prominent conical or bi-conical outflows belonging to the MAGNUM survey by exploiting the unprecedented sensitivity, spatial and spectral coverage of the integral field spectrograph MUSE at the Very Large Telescope. We developed a novel approach based on the gas and stars kinematics to disentangle high-velocity gas in the outflow from gas in the disc to spatially track the differencesRead More →

Mineral dust increases the habitability of terrestrial planets but confounds biomarker detection.

Yet habitability depends not only on the stellar irradiance, but equally on constituent parts of the planetary atmosphere. Here we show, for the first time, that radiatively active mineral dust will have a significant impact on the habitability of Earth-like exoplanets. On tidally-locked planets, dust coolsRead More →
