The Role of Cell-Matrix Interactions in Connective Tissue Mechanics

Kavli Affiliate: Gijsje H. Koenderink | First 5 Authors: Iain Muntz, Michele Fenu, Gerjo J. V. M. van Osch, Gijsje H. Koenderink, | Summary: Living tissue is able to withstand large stresses in everyday life, yet it also actively adapts to dynamic loads. This remarkable mechanical behaviour emerges from the interplay between living cells and […]

Synchronized Co-evolution between Supermassive Black Holes and Galaxies Over the Last Seven Billion Years as Revealed by the Hyper Suprime-Cam

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Junyao Li, John D. Silverman, Xuheng Ding, Michael A. Strauss, Andy Goulding | Summary: We measure the evolution of the $M_{rm BH}-M_*$ relation using 584 uniformly-selected SDSS quasars at $0.2<z<0.8$. The black-hole masses ($M_{rm BH}$) are derived from the single-epoch virial mass estimator using the H$beta$ […]

The TESS Mission Target Selection Procedure

Kavli Affiliate: Christopher J. Burke | First 5 Authors: Michael Fausnaugh, Ed Morgan, Roland Vanderspek, Joshua Pepper, Christopher J. Burke | Summary: We describe the target selection procedure by which stars are selected for 2-minute and 20-second observations by TESS. We first list the technical requirements of the TESS instrument and ground systems processing that […]

The extreme properties of the nearby hyper-Eddington accreting Active Galactic Nucleus in IRAS 04416+1215

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Alessia Tortosa, Claudio Ricci, Francesco Tombesi, Luis C. Ho, Pu Du | Summary: The physical properties of the accretion flow and of the X-ray emitting plasma, in supermassive black holes accreting at extreme Eddington rates, are still very unclear. Here we present the analysis of simultaneous XMM-Newton […]

Height-Dependent LoS Probability Model for A2G MmWave Communications under Built-up Scenarios

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Minghui Pang, Qiuming Zhu, Fei Bai, Zhuo Li, Hanpeng Li | Summary: Based on the three-dimensional propagation characteristic under built-up scenarios, a height-dependent line-of-sight (LoS) probability model for air-to-ground (A2G) millimeter wave (mmWave) communications is proposed in this paper. With comprehensive considerations of scenario factors, i.e., building […]

Farpoint: A High-Resolution Cosmology Simulation at the Gigaparsec Scale

Kavli Affiliate: Salman Habib | First 5 Authors: Nicholas Frontiere, Katrin Heitmann, Esteban Rangel, Patricia Larsen, Adrian Pope | Summary: In this paper we introduce the Farpoint simulation, the latest member of the Hardware/Hybrid Accelerated Cosmology Code (HACC) gravity-only simulation family. The domain covers a volume of (1000$h^{-1}$Mpc)$^3$ and evolves close to two trillion particles, […]

$Λ$CDM: Much more than we expected, but now less than what we want

Kavli Affiliate: Michael S. Turner | First 5 Authors: Michael S. Turner, , , , | Summary: The $rmLambda$CDM cosmological model is remarkable: with just 6 parameters it describes the evolution of the Universe from a very early time when all structures were quantum fluctuations on subatomic scales to the present, and it is consistent […]

Calibration of the MaGIXS experiment II: Flight Instrument Calibration

Kavli Affiliate: Ralf K. Heilmann | First 5 Authors: P. S. Athiray, Amy R. Winebarger, Patrick Champey, Ken Kobayashi, Sabrina Savage | Summary: The Marshall Grazing Incidence X-ray Spectrometer (MaGIXS) is a sounding rocket experiment that observes the soft X-ray spectrum of the Sun from 6.0 – 24 Angstrom (0.5 – 2.0 keV), successfully launched […]
