Improved tracking of particles with highly correlated motion

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Weitz | First 5 Authors: Ella M. King, Zizhao Wang, David A. Weitz, Frans Spaepen, Michael P. Brenner | Summary: Despite significant advances in particle imaging technologies over the past two decades, few advances have been made in particle tracking, i.e. linking individual particle positions across time series data. The state-of-the-art […]

Constraining galaxy overdensities around three z~6.5 quasars with ALMA and MUSE

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Romain A. Meyer, Roberto Decarli, Fabian Walter, Qiong Li, Ran Wang | Summary: We quantify galaxy overdensities around three high-redshift quasars with known [CII] 158um companions: PJ231-20 (z=6.59), PJ308-21 (z=6.24) and J0305-3150 (z=6.61). Recent SCUBA2 imaging revealed the presence of 17 submillimeter galaxies (SMG) with sky separations […]

Optimizing Gravitational-Wave Detector Design for Squeezed Light

Kavli Affiliate: Rana X. Adhikari | First 5 Authors: Jonathan W. Richardson, Swadha Pandey, Edita Bytyqi, Tega Edo, Rana X. Adhikari | Summary: Squeezed light is critical in gravitational-wave detection for reaching sensitivities below the standard quantum limit. Achieving the quantum noise targets of third-generation detectors will require 10 dB of squeezing as well as […]

Development and characterization of a fast and low noise readout for the next generation X-ray CCDs

Kavli Affiliate: Marshall Bautz | First 5 Authors: Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Sven Herrmann, Peter Orel, R. Glenn Morris, Gregory Prigozhin | Summary: The broad energy response, low electronic read noise, and good energy resolution have made X-ray Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) an obvious choice for developing soft X-ray astronomical instruments over the last half century. They also […]
