Dynamics of the plasma sheet in the magnetotail: Interrelation of turbulent flows and thin current sheet structures
DOI: 10.1016/j.asr.2008.09.005 Bibcode: 2009AdSpR..43..624K

Domrin, V. I.; Kropotkin, A. P.

Dynamics of the magnetotail involves elementary processes of magnetic field merging (reconnection layer formation) occurring on medium spatial scales. Every such process features two different stages, a fast one and a subsequent slower one. The corresponding short time scale T1 is associated with disturbances propagating in the tail lob…

Radial propagation velocity of energetic particle injections according to measurements onboard the Cluster satellites
DOI: 10.1134/S0010952509010031 Bibcode: 2009CosRe..47...22A

Nakamura, R.; Sergeev, V. A.; Baumjohann, W. +4 more

Injections of energetic electrons with a dispersion over energies were observed during the February 23, 2004 (at about 03:20 UT) substorm onboard the Cluster satellites in the vicinity of perigee near the midnight meridian. The delays in the particle observation caused by the energy dependence of the magnetic drift velocities made it possible to d…

Improved Cosmological Constraints from New, Old, and Combined Supernova Data Sets
DOI: 10.1086/589937 Bibcode: 2008ApJ...686..749K

Perdereau, O.; Frye, B. L.; Suntzeff, N. B. +67 more

We present a new compilation of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), a new data set of low-redshift nearby-Hubble-flow SNe, and new analysis procedures to work with these heterogeneous compilations. This "Union" compilation of 414 SNe Ia, which reduces to 307 SNe after selection cuts, includes the recent large samples of SNe Ia from the Supernova Legacy S…

Evolution of asymptotic giant branch stars. II. Optical to far-infrared isochrones with improved TP-AGB models
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361:20078467 Bibcode: 2008A&A...482..883M

Bressan, A.; Girardi, L.; Granato, G. L. +3 more

We present a large set of theoretical isochrones, whose distinctive features mostly reside on the greatly-improved treatment of the thermally-pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase. Essentially, we have coupled the TP-AGB tracks described in Paper I, at their stages of pre-flash quiescent H-shell burning, with the evolutionary tracks for t…

A Cosmological Framework for the Co-Evolution of Quasars, Supermassive Black Holes, and Elliptical Galaxies. I. Galaxy Mergers and Quasar Activity
DOI: 10.1086/524362 Bibcode: 2008ApJS..175..356H

Hernquist, Lars; Cox, Thomas J.; Hopkins, Philip F. +1 more

We develop a model for the cosmological role of mergers in the evolution of starbursts, quasars, and spheroidal galaxies. By combining theoretically well-constrained halo and subhalo mass functions as a function of redshift and environment with empirical halo occupation models, we can estimate where galaxies of given properties live at a particula…
