Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Jake S. Bennett, Debora Sijacki, , , | Summary: The use of galaxy clusters as cosmological probes often relies on understanding the properties and evolution of the intracluster medium (ICM). However, the ICM is a complex plasma, regularly stirred by mergers and feedback, with non-negligible bulk and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Ziyi Chen, Qunwei Li, Yi Zhou, , | Summary: Standard gradient descent-ascent (GDA)-type algorithms can only find stationary points in nonconvex minimax optimization, which are far more sub-optimal than local minimax points. In this work, we develop GDA-type algorithms that globally converge to local minimax points in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Albert Stebbins | First 5 Authors: Christina Gao, Albert Stebbins, , , | Summary: In this paper we study how a Yukawa coupling of the Standard Model fermions to a light scalar field effects the stellar structure of cold stellar remnants such as neutron stars. We elucidate the stellar structure phenomenology using a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Yosuke Kobayashi, Takahiro Nishimichi, Masahiro Takada, Hironao Miyatake, | Summary: We present the results obtained from the full-shape cosmology analysis of the redshift-space power spectra for 4 galaxy samples of the SDSS-III BOSS DR12 galaxy catalog over $0.2 < z < 0.75$. For the theoretical template, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Ting S. Li, Alexander P. Ji, Andrew B. Pace, Denis Erkal, Sergey E. Koposov | Summary: We report the kinematic, orbital, and chemical properties of 12 stellar streams with no evident progenitors, using line-of-sight velocities and metallicities from the Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey ($S^5$), proper […]
Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Nicholas Scarsdale, Joseph M. Akana Murphy, Natalie M. Batalha, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Courtney D. Dressing | Summary: We present the discovery of two nearly identically-sized sub-Neptune transiting planets orbiting HD 63935, a bright ($V=8.6$ mag), sun-like ($T_{eff}=5560K$) star at 49 pc. TESS identified the first planet, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul L. Schechter | First 5 Authors: Derek Baldwin, Paul L. Schechter, , , | Summary: Quasars are quadruply lensed only when they lie within the diamond caustic of a lensing galaxy. This precondition produces a Malmquist-like selection effect in observed populations of quadruply lensed quasars, overestimating the true caustic area. The bias […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul L. Schechter | First 5 Authors: Derek Baldwin, Paul L. Schechter, , , | Summary: Quadruply lensed quasars are visible only when the source quasar lies within the diamond caustic of the lensing galaxy. This condition creates a Malmquist-like selection effect in the population of observed quadruply lensed quasars, increasing the true […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mamoru Matsuo | First 5 Authors: Daigo Oue, Mamoru Matsuo, , , | Summary: We propose a spin transport induced by inertial motion. Our system is composed of two host media and a narrow vacuum gap in between. One of the hosts is sliding at a constant speed relative to the other. This […]
