Abstract: Binary evolution is influenced by dynamical scattering with other stars in dense environments. Heggie’s law states that, due to their environments, hard binaries (whose orbital energy surpasses the typical energy of single stars) tend to… read more here.

Abstract: We investigate both analytically and numerically the propagation dynamic of on-axis and off-axis cosine-Gaussian (CG) beams in a linear medium with quadratic external potential. CG beam propagation evolves periodically with a period depended on the… read more here.
