  1. Optical and gamma-ray study of gamma-ray binaries

    … from the implication of our results is the Kozai Lidov mechanism, which has so far only been explored theoretically. I have explored the Bethe-Heitler mechanism for the production of gamma-ray emission, where energetic protons collide with stellar photons to produce energetic …

  2. Planetesimal Belts in Misaligned Wide Stellar Binaries

    … systems. Hence, there must exist some dynamical mechanism to deliver rocky bodies to small distances on timescales of 10 − 10⁴ Myrs. This thesis examines the feasibility and detectability of one of these potential mechanisms: the eccentric Kozai-Lidov effect whereby a stellar companion on a …
