The THESAN project: properties of the intergalactic medium and its connection to Reionization-era galaxies

Posted by klaurent October 4, 2021MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Enrico Garaldi, Rahul Kannan, Aaron Smith, Volker Springel, Rüdiger Pakmor | Summary: The high-redshift intergalactic medium (IGM) and the primeval galaxy population are rapidly becoming the new frontier of extra-galactic astronomy. We investigate the IGM properties and their connection to galaxies at $zgeq5.5$ under different assumptions for […]

An Infrared Search for Kilonovae with the WINTER Telescope. I. Binary Neutron Star Mergers

Posted by klaurent October 4, 2021MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Nathan P. Lourie | First 5 Authors: Danielle Frostig, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Geoffrey Mo, Viraj Karambelkar, Tito Dal Canton | Summary: The Wide-Field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) is a new 1 $text{deg}^2$ seeing-limited time-domain survey instrument designed for dedicated near-infrared follow-up of kilonovae from binary neutron star (BNS) and neutron star-black hole mergers. WINTER […]

HERBS: Histological E-data Registration in rodent Brain Spaces

Posted by klaurent October 3, 2021September 26, 2022NTNU

Kavli Affiliate: Jonathan Whitlock, Jingyi Guo, Pearl Saldanha | Authors: Jingyi Guo Fuglstad, Pearl Saldanha, Jacopo Paglia and Jonathan R. Whitlock | Summary: Abstract Recording technologies for rodents have seen huge advances in the last decade, allowing users to sample thousands of neurons simultaneously from multiple brain regions. This has prompted the need for digital […]

Mysterious Dust-emitting Object Orbiting TIC 400799224

Posted by klaurent October 3, 2021MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Brian P. Powell, Veselin Kostov, Saul Rappaport, Andrei Tokovinin, Avi Shporer | Summary: We report the discovery of a unique object of uncertain nature — but quite possibly a disintegrating asteroid or minor planet — orbiting one star of the widely separated binary TIC 400799224. We initially […]

Cerberus: Query-driven Scalable Vulnerability Detection in OAuth Service Provider Implementations

Posted by klaurent October 3, 2021Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Tamjid Al Rahat, Yu Feng, Yuan Tian, , | Summary: OAuth protocols have been widely adopted to simplify user authentication and service authorization for third-party applications. However, little effort has been devoted to automatically checking the security of the libraries that service providers widely use. In this […]

$B$-flavor tagging at Belle II

Posted by klaurent October 2, 2021Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: F. Abudinén, N. Akopov, A. Aloisio, V. Babu, Sw. Banerjee | Summary: We report on new flavor-tagging algorithms developed to determine the quark-flavor content of bottom ($B$) mesons at Belle II. The algorithms provide essential inputs for measurements of quark-flavor mixing and charge-parity violation. We validate and […]

Piezo-deformable Mirrors for Active Mode Matching in Advanced LIGO

Posted by klaurent October 1, 2021MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Peter Fritschel | First 5 Authors: Varun Srivastava, Georgia Mansell, Camille Makarem, Minkyun Noh, Richard Abbott | Summary: The detectors of the laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory (LIGO) are broadly limited by the quantum noise and rely on the injection of squeezed states of light to achieve their full sensitivity. Squeezing improvement is limited […]
