Kavli Affiliate: Richard Kessler | First 5 Authors: Brodie Popovic, Dillon Brout, Richard Kessler, Dan Scolnic, Lisa Lu | Summary: Improving the use of Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) as standard candles requires a better approach to incorporate the relationship between SNIa and the properties of their host galaxies. Using a spectroscopically-confirmed sample of $sim$1600 SNIa, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Natalia Tapia Arellano, Shunsaku Horiuchi, , , | Summary: Measuring the solar neutrino flux over gigayear timescales could provide a new window to inform the Solar Standard Model as well as studies of the Earth’s long-term climate. We demonstrate the feasibility of measuring the time-evolution of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Lina Necib, Tongyan Lin, , , | Summary: The local escape velocity provides valuable inputs to the mass profile of the Galaxy, and requires understanding the tail of the stellar speed distribution. Following Leonard $&$ Tremaine (1990), various works have since modeled the tail of the stellar […]
Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Linhua Jiang, Shu Wang, Bing Zhang, Nobunari Kashikawa, Luis C. Ho | Summary: In Jiang et al. (2020), we reported a possible bright flash (hereafter GN-z11-flash) from a galaxy GN-z11 at z ~ 11. Recently, Steinhardt et al. (2021; arXiv:2101.12738) found 27 images with transient signals in […]
