TOI-2285b: A 1.7 Earth-radius Planet Near the Habitable Zone around a Nearby M Dwarf

Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Akihiko Fukui, Tadahiro Kimura, Teruyuki Hirano, Norio Narita, Takanori Kodama | Summary: We report the discovery of TOI-2285b, a sub-Neptune-sized planet transiting a nearby (42 pc) M dwarf with a period of 27.3 days. We identified the transit signal from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite photometric data, […]

Precision analysis of the redshift-space galaxy bispectrum

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Mikhail M. Ivanov, Oliver H. E. Philcox, Takahiro Nishimichi, Marko Simonović, Masahiro Takada | Summary: We study the information content of the angle-averaged (monopole) redshift space galaxy bispectrum. The main novelty of our approach is the use of a systematic tree-level perturbation theory model that includes galaxy […]

Momentum deposition of supernovae with cosmic rays

Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Francisco Rodríguez Montero, Sergio Martin-Alvarez, Debora Sijacki, Adrianne Slyz, Julien Devriendt | Summary: The cataclysmic explosions of massive stars as supernovae are one of the key ingredients of galaxy formation. However, their evolution is not well understood in the presence of magnetic fields or cosmic rays (CRs). […]

Full tunability enabled by Floquet engineering in a multilevel quantum dot system

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yuan Zhou, Sisi Gu, Ke Wang, Gang Cao, Xuedong Hu | Summary: Tunability of an artificial quantum system is crucial to its capability to process quantum information. However, tunability usually poses significant demand on the design and fabrication of a device. In this work, we demonstrate that […]

The Simons Observatory: Constraining inflationary gravitational waves with multi-tracer B-mode delensing

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Toshiya Namikawa, Anton Baleato Lizancos, Naomi Robertson, Blake D. Sherwin, Anthony Challinor | Summary: We introduce and validate a delensing framework for the Simons Observatory (SO), which will be used to improve constraints on inflationary gravitational waves (IGWs) by reducing the lensing noise in measurements of the […]

Valley transport driven by dynamic lattice distortion

Kavli Affiliate: Mamoru Matsuo | First 5 Authors: Yuya Ominato, Daigo Oue, Mamoru Matsuo, , | Summary: Angular momentum conversion between mechanical rotation and the valley degree of freedom in 2D Dirac materials is investigated theoretically. Coupling between the valley and vorticity of dynamic lattice distortions is derived by applying the k.p method to 2D […]
