EMPRESS. VIII. A New Determination of Primordial He Abundance with Extremely Metal-Poor Galaxies: A Suggestion of the Lepton Asymmetry and Implications for the Hubble Tension

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | First 5 Authors: Akinori Matsumoto, Masami Ouchi, Kimihiko Nakajima, Masahiro Kawasaki, Kai Murai | Summary: The primordial He abundance $Y_mathrm{P}$ is a powerful probe of cosmology. Currently, $Y_mathrm{P}$ is best determined by observations of metal-poor galaxies, while there are only a few known local extremely metal-poor ($<0.1 Z_odot$) galaxies (EMPGs) […]

Radio pulsations from a neutron star within the gamma-ray binary LS I +61$^{circ}$ 303

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Shan-Shan Weng, Lei Qian, Bo-Jun Wang, D. F. Torres, A. Papitto | Summary: LS I +61$^{circ}$ 303 is one of the rare gamma-ray binaries, emitting most of their luminosity in photons with energies beyond 100 MeV. The $sim$26.5 d orbital period is clearly detected at many wavelengths. […]

The Aemulus Project V: Cosmological constraint from small-scale clustering of BOSS galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Zhongxu Zhai, Jeremy L. Tinker, Arka Banerjee, Joseph DeRose, Hong Guo | Summary: We analyze clustering measurements of BOSS galaxies using a simulation-based emulator of two-point statistics. We focus on the monopole and quadrupole of the redshift-space correlation function, and the projected correlation function, at scales […]

Discovering the building blocks of dark matter halo density profiles with neural networks

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: Luisa Lucie-Smith, Hiranya V. Peiris, Andrew Pontzen, Brian Nord, Jeyan Thiyagalingam | Summary: The density profiles of dark matter halos are typically modeled using empirical formulae fitted to the density profiles of relaxed halo populations. We present a neural network model that is trained to learn the […]

Near-Zone Symmetries of Kerr Black Holes

Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | First 5 Authors: Lam Hui, Austin Joyce, Riccardo Penco, Luca Santoni, Adam R. Solomon | Summary: We study the near-zone symmetries of a massless scalar field on four-dimensional black hole backgrounds. We provide a geometric understanding that unifies various recently discovered symmetries as part of an SO(4,2) group. Of these, […]

CUE Vectors: Modular Training of Language Models Conditioned on Diverse Contextual Signals

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Scott Novotney, Sreeparna Mukherjee, Zeeshan Ahmed, Andreas Stolcke, | Summary: We propose a framework to modularize the training of neural language models that use diverse forms of sentence-external context (including metadata) by eliminating the need to jointly train sentence-external and within-sentence encoders. Our approach, contextual universal embeddings […]

Cosmo-Paleontology: Statistics of Fossil Groups in a Gravity-Only Simulation

Kavli Affiliate: Salman Habib | First 5 Authors: Aurora Cossairt, Michael Buehlmann, Eve Kovacs, Xin Liu, Salman Habib | Summary: We present a detailed study of fossil group candidates identified in "Last Journey", a gravity-only cosmological simulation covering a $(3.4, h^{-1}mathrm{Gpc})^3$ volume with a particle mass resolution of $m_p approx 2.7 times 10^9, h^{-1}mathrm{M}_odot$. The […]
