A circumbinary disc around a pair of merging stellar-mass black holes may be shocked and heated during the recoil of the merged hole, causing a near-simultaneous electromagnetic counterpart to the gravitational wave event. The shocks occur…
The huge derivative of orbital period observed in binary pulsar PSR B1259-63, the torque reversal displaying on low mass X-ray binary, 4U1627-67 and the long term change of orbital period of PSR J2051-0827, seem totally unrelated phenomena…
Brown dwarfs, being transitional objects between giant planets and low-mass stars, possess dense, cool interiors that provide optimal conditions to explore non-standard physics. Capture and accumulation of dark-matter particles can alter…
