Effect on Dark Matter Exclusion Limits from New Silicon Photoelectric Absorption Measurements

Kavli Affiliate: Blas Cabrera | First 5 Authors: Belina von Krosigk, Matthew J. Wilson, Chris Stanford, Blas Cabrera, Robert Calkins | Summary: Recent breakthroughs in cryogenic silicon detector technology allow for the observation of single electron-hole pairs released via particle interactions within the target material. This implies sensitivity to energy depositions as low as the […]

Exciting modes due to the aberration of gravitational waves: Measurability for extreme-mass-ratio inspirals

Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Alejandro Torres-Orjuela, Pau Amaro Seoane, Zeyuan Xuan, Alvin J. K. Chua, MarĂ­a J. B. Rosell | Summary: Gravitational waves from a source moving relative to us can suffer from special-relativistic effects such as aberration. The required velocities for these to be significant are on the order […]

Collapsar R-Process Yields Can Reproduce [Eu/Fe] Abundance Scatter in Metal-Poor Stars

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Kaley Brauer, Alexander P. Ji, Maria R. Drout, Anna Frebel, | Summary: It is unclear if neutron star mergers can explain the observed r-process abundances of metal-poor stars. Collapsars, defined here as rotating massive stars whose collapse results in a rapidly accreting disk around a black hole […]

Black Hole Interior in Unitary Gauge Construction

Kavli Affiliate: Yasunori Nomura | First 5 Authors: Yasunori Nomura, , , , | Summary: A quantum system with a black hole accommodates two widely different, though physically equivalent, descriptions. In one description, based on global spacetime of general relativity, the existence of the interior region is manifest, while understanding unitarity requires nonperturbative quantum gravity […]

Resonant Interaction of Modulation-correlated Quantum Electron Wavepackets with Bound Electron States

Kavli Affiliate: Amnon Yariv | First 5 Authors: Avraham Gover, Bin Zhang, Du Ran, Reuven Ianconescu, Aharon Friedman | Summary: Free-Electron Bound-Electron Resonant Interaction (FEBERI) is the resonant inelastic interaction of periodically density-bunched free electrons with a quantum two level system. We present a comprehensive relativistic quantum mechanical theory for this interaction in a model […]
