E+A galaxy and spiral E+A galaxy candidates in the Hercules supercluster

Creator:

Williams, Rosemary H.

Abstract:

E+A galaxies represent an important niche in galaxy evolution as a subset of post-starburst galaxies. Set apart from other post-starburst galaxies by their rapid quenching of star formation, E+As are thought to have started their formation outside a galaxy cluster's center and have fallen inward due to gravity; the star...

Analysis of Radio Signals for New Pulsar Detection

Creator:

Downing, Jaden

Abstract:

The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) times periodic signals from pulsars as a method of detecting gravitational waves. NANOGrav detects waves emitted in the nanohertz frequency range, a range lower than those previously explored by other organizations. This allows for the study of rarely observed sources such...

Locating and Observing Pulsars for Use in Gravitational Wave Detection

Creator:

Díaz, Ian H.

Abstract:

By studying gravitational waves, we can gain new insights into the merging events between massive objects such as black holes as well as neutron stars. Moreover, studying low-frequency waves allows us to observe merging events between supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies, which in turn allows us to...
