The Future of our Universe: From the 21st Century to the End (2009)
This talk describes our current picture for the long term fate of the cosmos. We discuss the evolution of planets, stars, galaxies, and the universe itself over time scales that greatly exceed the...
Young stellar clusters and star formation throughout the Galaxy (2009)
Feigelson, Eric, Adams, Fred, Allen, Lori, Bergin, Edwin, Bally, John, Balog, Zoltan, ...
Most stars are born in rich young stellar clusters (YSCs) embedded in giant molecular clouds. The most massive stars live out their short lives there, profoundly influencing their natal environments...

Hill's Equation with Random Forcing Terms (2007)
Motivated by a class of orbit problems in astrophysics, this paper considers solutions to Hill's equation with forcing strength parameters that vary from cycle to cycle. The results are generalized...

Type I Planetary Migration with MHD Turbulence (2003)
Laughlin, Gregory, Steinacker, Adriane, Adams, Fred
This paper examines how type I planet migration is affected by the presence of turbulent density fluctuations in the circumstellar disk. For type I migration, the planet does not clear a gap in the...

Toward Saving Nozick from Kripke (2003)
Tracking theories of knowledge, though quite popular have been under attack from their inception. Specifically, we have in mind the attacks of Saul Kripke. We don’t think these attacks on tracking...

Vortices In Circumstellar Disks (1995)
We discuss the physics of vortices in the circumstellar disks associated with young stellar objects. We elucidate the basic physical properties of these localized storm systems. In particular, we...

A pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson, with a potential of the form $V(\phi) = \Lambda^4[1 \pm \cos(\phi/f)], naturally gives rise to inflation if $f \sim M_{Pl}$ and $\Lambda \sim M_{GUT}$. We show how...
