Fracture Diodes: Directional asymmetry of fracture toughness

Kavli Affiliate: G. Ravichandran | First 5 Authors: N. R. Brodnik, S. Brach, C. M. Long, G. Ravichandran, B. Bourdin | Summary: Toughness describes the ability of a material to resist fracture or crack propagation. It is demonstrated here that fracture toughness of a material can be asymmetric, i.e., the resistance of a medium to […]

A Preliminary Calibration of the JAGB Method Using Gaia EDR3

Kavli Affiliate: Wendy L. Freedman | First 5 Authors: Abigail J. Lee, Wendy L. Freedman, Barry F. Madore, Kayla A. Owens, In Sung Jang | Summary: The recently-developed J-region Asymptotic Giant Branch (JAGB) method has extraordinary potential as an extragalactic standard candle, capable of calibrating the absolute magnitudes of locally-accessible Type Ia supernovae, thereby leading […]

The evolution of the barred galaxy population in the TNG50 simulation

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Yetli Rosas-Guevara, Silvia Bonoli, Massimo Dotti, David Izquierdo-Villalba, Alessandro Lupi | Summary: We use the magnetic-hydrodynamical simulation TNG50 to study the evolution of barred massive disc galaxies. Massive spiral galaxies are already present as early as $z=4$, and bar formation takes place already at those early times. […]

Probing gluon helicity with heavy flavor at the EIC

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Daniele Paolo Anderle, Xin Dong, Felix Hekhorn, Matthew Kelsey, Sooraj Radhakrishnan | Summary: We propose a new measurement of the heavy flavor hadron double spin asymmetry in deep-inelastic scattering at a future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) to constrain the polarized gluon distribution function inside the proton. Statistical projection […]
