چکیده
The MIT Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research (MKI) conducts research in physics, astrophysics, space science, detector engineering, and related technologies and participates in National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) flight missions. Areas of research include extragalactic astronomy and cosmology, galactic astronomy, gravitational physics, the solar system and space plasma physics, and the space life sciences. The Departments of Physics; Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences; Aeronautics and Astronautics; and Mechanical Engineering report research conducted at MKI, which is the home of the Astrophysics Division of the Physics Department, supporting faculty, postdocs, and students. Students actively participate in research; in the past year, 43 graduate students and 29 undergraduate students from four departments and from Wellesley College worked on projects at MKI.

متن کاملOn the Spin of the Black Hole in Ic 10 X–1
The compact X-ray source in the eclipsing X-ray binary IC 10 X-1 has reigned for years as ostensibly the most massive stellar-mass black hole, with a mass estimated to be about twice that of its closest rival. However, striking results presented recently by Laycock et al. reveal that the mass estimate, based on emission-line velocities, is unreliable and that the mass of the X-ray source is ess...
