Accretion-powered X-ray Pulsars (XRPs) are strongly magnetized
neutron stars (NSs), that accrete matter from a donor companion
star, often exhibiting a cyclotron resonant scattering feature
(CRSF) in their X-ray spectra. Accretion onto their...
Circumbinary discs around young stars have been observed to be
misaligned to the binary orbital plane. A misaligned circumbinary
gas disc evolves towards one of two states: alignment with the
binary orbital plane or polar alignment where the disc is...
In this presentation, we will explore how laboratory magnetized
plasma can help us uncover key questions of space physics and space
exploration, including spacecraft heat shield performance,
energetic electron transport during geomagnetic storms...
JWST has enabled high-fidelity infrared spectroscopy for a wide
range of transiting planets, directly imaged planets, and brown
dwarfs. In the past year, for transiting planets, observers
have detected several molecules for the first time in an...
We present a novel combination of the excursion-set approach
with the peak theory formalism in Lagrangian space and provide
accurate predictions for halo and void statistics over a wide range
of scales. The set-up is based on an effective moving...
