Suyu, Naoki Yasuda, Tomoki Morokuma | Summary: We present a lensed quasar search based on the variability of lens systems in the HSC transient survey. Starting from 101,353 variable objects with i-band photometry in the HSC transient […]
Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Emil J. Martinec, Nicholas P. Warner, , , | Summary: We consider the fate of a massless (or ultra-relativistic massive) string probe propagating down the BTZ-like throat of a microstate geometry in the D1-D5 system. Far down the throat, the probe encounters large tidal forces that […]
