Evidence for reduced magnetic braking in polars from binary population models

Diogo Belloni, Matthias R. Schreiber, Anna F. Pala, Boris T. Gansicke, Monica Zorotovic, Claudia V. Rodrigues · 2019

We present the first population synthesis of synchronous magnetic cataclysmic variables, called polars, taking into account the effect of the white dwarf (WD) magnetic field on angular momentum loss. …

Magnetic Fields in Interacting Binaries

G. Briggs, Lilia Ferrario, C. A.Tout, D. T. Wickramasinghe · 2018

Wickramasinghe et al. (2014) and Briggs et al. (2015) have proposed that the strong magnetic fields observed in some single white dwarfs (MWDs) are formed by a dynamo driven by differential rotation w…

Primordial Planets Explain Interstellar Dust, the Formation of Life; and Falsify Dark Energy

Carl H. Gibson (University of California at San Diego), N. Chandra Wickramasinghe (Cardiff University, Buckingham University, UK), Rudolph E. Schild (Harvard University) · 2011

Hydrogravitional-dynamics (HGD) cosmology of Gibson/Schild 1996 predicts proto-globular-star-cluster PGC clumps of Earth-mass planets fragmented from plasma at ~0.3 Myr. Protogalaxies retained the ~0.…

An analytical approximation of the luminosity distance in flat cosmologies with a cosmological constant

Masaru Adachi, Masumi Kasai · 2011

We present an analytical approximation formula for the luminosity distance in spatially flat cosmologies with dust and a cosmological constant. Apart from the overall factor, the effect of non-zero co…

The Biological Big Bang: The First Oceans of Primordial Planets at 2-8 Million Years Explain Hoyle/Wickramasinghe Cometary Panspermia

Carl H. Gibson (University of California at San Diego) · 2011

Hydrogravitional-dynamics (HGD) cosmology of Gibson/Schild 1996 predicts that the primordial H-He^4 gas of big bang nucleosynthesis became proto-globular-star-cluster clumps of Earth-mass planets at 3…

First life in primordial-planet oceans: the biological big bang

Carl H. Gibson (Univ. Cal. San Diego US) N. Chandra Wickramasinghe (Cardiff Univ. UK) Rudolph E. Schild (Harvard Univ. US) · 2010

A scenario is presented for the formation of first life in the universe based on hydro-gravitational-dynamics (HGD) cosmology. From HGD, the dark matter of galaxies is H-He gas dominated planets (prim…
