MAQRO — BPS 2023 Research Campaign Whitepaper

Kavli Affiliate: Sven Herrmann | First 5 Authors: Rainer Kaltenbaek, Markus Arndt, Markus Aspelmeyer, Peter F. Barker, Angelo Bassi | Summary: The objective of the proposed MAQRO mission is to harness space for achieving long free-fall times, extreme vacuum, nano-gravity, and cryogenic temperatures to test the foundations of physics in macroscopic quantum experiments. This will […]

Universal tetramer and pentamer in two-dimensional fermionic mixtures

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Ruijin Liu, Cheng Peng, Xiaoling Cui, , | Summary: We study the emergence of universal tetramer and pentamer bound states in the two-dimensional $(N+1)$ system, which consists $N$ identical heavy fermions interacting with a light atom. We show that the critical heavy-light mass ratio to support a […]

Asteroid Measurements at Millimeter Wavelengths with the South Pole Telescope

Kavli Affiliate: C. L. Kuo | First 5 Authors: P. M. Chichura, A. Foster, C. Patel, N. Ossa-Jaen, P. A. R. Ade | Summary: We present the first measurements of asteroids in millimeter wavelength (mm) data from the South Pole Telescope (SPT), which is used primarily to study the cosmic microwave background (CMB). We analyze […]

Cold Gas in Massive Galaxies as A Critical Test of Black Hole Feedback Models

Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Jingjing Shi, Yingjie Peng, Benedikt Diemer, Adam R. H. Stevens, Annalisa Pillepich | Summary: Black hole feedback has been widely implemented as the key recipe to quench star formation in massive galaxies in modern semi-analytic models and hydrodynamical simulations. As the theoretical details surrounding the accretion and […]
