Circling into the marina, I consulted my cheat sheet again: Pull gas plug, slow way down, curve into slip just as engine dies (yes!), grab line on dock and wrap around cleat at stern, climb onto dock with bow line.
Millisecond pulsars probably arise when a neutron star pulls gas from a nearby companion star.
Gravity alone could not pull gas inward so quickly, he notes.
In the new study, graduate student Adam Villarreal of the University of Arizona, Tucson, and astrophysicist Tod Strohmayer of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, examined light from a neutron star that pulls gas from a companion.
These jets are formed when the neutron star's gravity pulls gas from its companion star, and some of the gas gets blasted outward.
Colliding asteroids and comets form the core, or seed, and as that seed becomes more massive, it gains enough gravity to pull gas from the disk toward it, forming a planet.
Newly forming stars send out large jets of gas, even as they pull gas and other matter toward them in the process of their formation, explained Hector Acre, an associate professor at Yale University and the lead author of a new study about Herbig-Haro 46/47 that will be published in the Astrophysical Journal.
They are often required by law to pull gases from air and materials from water and trash that they never had dreamed would be on any list of environmental problems.
"All of the sudden, out of nowhere, a woman — an organizer from LSU — started yelling 'they're pulling out tear gas and gas masks, we gotta move.'".
"You hear stories about tankers pulling into gas stations and people are already waiting — and they have half a tank," Dr. Medlock said.
