Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Xiangchong Li, Hironao Miyatake, Wentao Luo, Surhud More, Masamune Oguri | Summary: We present the galaxy shear catalog that will be used for the three-year cosmological weak gravitational lensing analyses using data from the Wide layer of the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program (SSP) Survey. The […]
Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Samuel N. Quinn, Saul Rappaport, Andrew Vanderburg, Jason D. Eastman, Lorne A. Nelson | Summary: We report the detection of a single transit-like signal in the Kepler data of the slightly evolved F star KIC4918810. The transit duration is ~45 hours, and while the orbital period ($Psim10$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Sarah Pearson, Susan E. Clark, Alexis J. Demirjian, Kathryn V. Johnston, Melissa K. Ness | Summary: Stellar streams from globular clusters (GCs) offer constraints on the nature of dark matter and have been used to explore the dark matter halo structure and substructure of our Galaxy. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Grace Xing | First 5 Authors: Reet Chaudhuri, Zhen Chen, David Muller, Huili Grace Xing, Debdeep Jena | Summary: High-conductivity undoped GaN/AlN 2D hole gases (2DHGs), the p-type dual of the AlGaN/GaN 2D electron gases (2DEGs), have offered valuable insights into hole transport in GaN and enabled the first GaN GHz RF p-channel […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Sung-Yong Yoon, Jeong-Eun Lee, Seokho Lee, Gregory J. Herczeg, Sunkyung Park | Summary: Outbursts of young stellar objects occur when the mass accretion rate suddenly increases. However, such outbursts are difficult to detect for deeply embedded protostars due to their thick envelope and the rarity of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tomotake Matsumura | First 5 Authors: Samantha Lynn Stever, Tommaso Ghigna, Mayu Tominaga, Giuseppe Puglisi, Masahiro Tsujimoto | Summary: Systematic effects arising from cosmic rays have been shown to be a significant threat to space telescopes using high-sensitivity bolometers. The LiteBIRD space mission aims to measure the polarised Cosmic Microwave Background with unprecedented […]
