Computational astrophysics refers to the methods and computing tools developed and used in astrophysics research. Like computational chemistry or computational physics , it is both a specific branch of theoretical astrophysics and an interdisciplinary field relying on computer science , mathematics , and wider physics .
Deirdre Marie Shoemaker (born 1971) [1] is an American astrophysicist whose research studies the mergers of binary black holes through both simulation and observation. [2] She is a professor of physics at the University of Texas at Austin, where she directs the Center for Gravitational Physics and is affiliated with the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences.
Donald W. Olson is an astrophysicist and forensic astronomer at the Texas State University. Nicknamed the "Celestial Sleuth," he is known for studying art and history using astronomical data. [ 1 ] He is currently regents professor emeritus at Texas State's Department of Physics.
Astrophysics is a science that employs the methods and principles of physics and chemistry in the study of astronomical objects and phenomena. [1] [2] As one of the founders of the discipline, James Keeler, said, astrophysics "seeks to ascertain the nature of the heavenly bodies, rather than their positions or motions in space—what they are, rather than where they are", [3] which is studied ...
The sun is growing more active than scientists predicted. About every 11 years, the sun's magnetic fields flip, increasing solar activity. That activity can disrupt radio communications and GPS ...
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) manages the flow of electric power on the Texas Interconnection that supplies power to 26 million Texas customers – representing 90 percent of the state's electric load. [3] ERCOT is the first independent system operator (ISO) in the United States [4] and one of nine ISOs in North America. [5]
Power lines ignited massive wildfires across the Texas Panhandle that killed at least two people, destroyed homes and livestock, and left a charred landscape, officials said Thursday, including ...
