Cover Story: The resultant face-on profiles from 3D hydrodynamic simulations of relativistic jets interact with neutron star merger and neutrino-driven wind ejecta. We show how the inhomogeneity of energy and velocity across the jet surface profile can alter the temporal afterglow light curve shape for observers at any line-of-sight angle. An analytic jet structure function that includes physically motivated parameter uncertainties due to the variability through rotation of the source is presented to replace the typically ad hoc functions used by the community. Such physically motivated jet structures are an essential ingredient for precise cosmological inference with gravitational wave electromagnetic counterparts from merger jets. View this paper

Radio Emission from Supernova Remnants: Model Comparison with Observations

  • Denis A. Leahy,

  • Miroslav Filipović

8 December 2022

Supernova remnants (SNRs) are an integral part in studying the properties of the Galaxy and its interstellar medium. For the current work, we compare the observed radio luminosities of SNRs to predictions based on a recent analytic model applied to 5...

In our previous study, (Eur Phys J Plus 135:362, 2020 & Eur Phys J Plus 135:637, 2020), we have discussed the possible existence of the dark-matter-admixed pulsars, located in dwarf as well as in massive spiral galaxies (based on Singular Isother...

We investigate the dependence of elemental abundances on physical constants, and the implications this has for the distribution of complex life for various proposed habitability criteria. We consider three main sources of abundance variation: differi...

This paper investigates the impact of bulk viscosity within the framework of f(T,B) gravity. We consider a time-dependent viscosity model with a particular Hubble parameter expression. Here, we looked into the viability of well-motivated f(T,B) gravi...

We present an analysis of the pitch angle distribution function (PADF) for nearby galaxies and its resulting black hole mass function (BHMF) via the well-known relationship between pitch angle and black hole mass. Our sample consists of a subset of 7...

  • Aneta Wojnar

5 December 2022

A simple cooling model of white dwarf stars is re-analyzed in Palatini f(R) gravity. Modified gravity affects the white dwarf structures and consequently their ages. We find that the resulting super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs need more time to cool d...

5 December 2022

The Wang–Sheeley–Arge (WSA) solar wind (SW) model is based on the idea that weakly expanding coronal magnetic field tubes are associated with sources of fast SWs and vice versa. A parameter called the “flux tube expansion” (FT...

A universal upper limit on the entropy contained in a localized quantum system of a given size and total energy is expressed by the so-called Bekenstein bound. In a previous paper [Buoninfante, L. et al. 2022], on the basis of general thermodynamic a...
