Kavli Affiliate: Melania Nynka | First 5 Authors: Mengjiao Xiao, Kerstin M. Perez, Maurizio Giannotti, Oscar Straniero, Alessandro Mirizzi | Summary: We use the first observation of Betelgeuse in hard $X$-rays to perform a novel search for axion-like particles (ALPs). Betelgeuse is not expected to be a standard source of $X$-rays, but light ALPs produced […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel J. Needleman | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Fürthauer, Daniel J Needleman, Michael J. Shelley, , | Summary: Living matter moves, deforms, and organizes itself. In cells this is made possible by networks of polymer filaments and crosslinking molecules that connect filaments to each other and that act as motors to do mechanical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Kielan K. Wilcomb, Quinn M. Konopacky, Travis S. Barman, Christopher A. Theissen, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio | Summary: We present moderate-resolution ($Rsim4000$) $K$ band spectra of the "super-Jupiter," $kappa$ Andromedae b. The data were taken with the OSIRIS integral field spectrograph at Keck Observatory. The spectra reveal resolved molecular […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Turner | First 5 Authors: Gianmarco Mengaldo, David Moxey, Michael Turner, Rodrigo C. Moura, Ayad Jassim | Summary: We present a successful deployment of high-fidelity Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) technologies based on spectral/hp element methods to industrial flow problems, which are characterized by high Reynolds numbers and complex geometries. In particular, we describe […]
