Kavli Affiliate: Paolo Privitera | First 5 Authors: Paolo Privitera, Pavel Motloch, , , | Summary: In a recent Letter (Rimmer et al. 2014), Jupiter is presented as an efficient detector for Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs), through measurement by an Earth-orbiting satellite of gamma rays from UHECRs showers produced in Jupiter’s atmosphere. We show […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chihway Chang | First 5 Authors: Chihway Chang, Bhuvnesh Jain, , , | Summary: Weak gravitational lensing can cause displacements, magnification, rotation and shearing of the images of distant galaxies. Most studies focus on the shear and magnification effects since they are more easily observed. In this paper we focus on the effect […]
Frank C. van den Bosch, Fangzhou Jiang, , , | Summary: [[{“value”:”We compare subhalo mass and velocity functions obtained from different simulations with different subhalo finders among each other, and with predictions from the new semi-analytical model of Jiang & van den Bosch (2014). We find that subhalo mass functions (SHMFs) obtained using different subhalo […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul W. Sternberg | First 5 Authors: Franciszek Rakowski, Jagan Srinivasan, Paul W. Sternberg, Jan Karbowski, | Summary: C. elegans is the only animal for which a detailed neural connectivity diagram has been constructed. However, synaptic polarities in this diagram, and thus, circuit functions are largely unknown. Here, we deciphered the likely polarities […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tom Chang | First 5 Authors: Tom Chang, Cheng-chin Wu, Marius Echim, Herve Lamy, Mark Vogelsberger | Summary: Dynamic Complexity is a phenomenon exhibited by a nonlinearly interacting system within which multitudes of different sizes of large scale coherent structures emerge, resulting in a globally nonlinear stochastic behavior vastly different from that could […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joshua A. Frieman | First 5 Authors: Masao Sako, Bruce Bassett, Andrew C. Becker, Peter J. Brown, Heather Campbell | Summary: This paper describes the data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Survey conducted between 2005 and 2007. Light curves, spectra, classifications, and ancillary data are presented for 10,258 variable […]
