The Infall of Gas onto the Galactic Disk
Ongoing accretion of low-metallicity gas onto the disk is a natural prediction of semi-analytical Galactic chemical evolution models. This star

The Initial-Final Mass Relationship: Spectroscopy of White Dwarfs in NGC 2099 (M37)
We present new observations of very faint white dwarfs (WDs) in the rich open star cluster NGC 2099 (M37). Following

The Local Ly-alpha Forest: HI in Nearby Intergalactic Space
Detecting HI using redshifted Ly-alpha absorption lines is 1e6 times more sensitive than using the 21cm emission line. We review

Turbulence and mixing in the early universe
The role of turbulence and turbulent mixing in the formation and evolution of the early universe is examined. A new

Turbulence in the Ocean, Atmosphere, Galaxy, and Universe
Flows in natural bodies of fluid often become turbulent, with eddy-like motions dominated by inertial-vortex forces. Buoyancy, Coriolis, viscous, self-gravitational,

Turbulent mixing, diffusion and gravity in the formation of cosmological structures: the fluid mechanics of dark matter
The theory of gravitational structure formation in astrophysics and cosmology is revised based on real fluid behavior and turbulent mixing

Turbulent mixing, viscosity, diffusion and gravity in the formation of cosmological structures: the fluid mechanics of dark matter
Self-gravitational structure formation theory for astrophysics and cosmology is revised using nonlinear fluid mechanics. Gibson's 1996-2000 theory balances fluid mechanical
