Large-Scale Spatial Cross-Calibration of Hinode/SOT-SP and SDO/HMI

Kavli Affiliate: J. Todd Hoeksema | First 5 Authors: David F. Fouhey, Richard E. L. Higgins, Spiro K. Antiochos, Graham Barnes, Marc L. DeRosa | Summary: We investigate the cross-calibration of the Hinode/SOT-SP and SDO/HMI instrument meta-data, specifically the correspondence of the scaling and pointing information. Accurate calibration of these datasets gives the correspondence needed […]

Revealing AGNs Through TESS Variability

Kavli Affiliate: Michael M. Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Helena P. Treiber, Jason T. Hinkle, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Benjamin J. Shappee, Christopher S. Kochanek | Summary: We used Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) data to identify 29 candidate active galactic nuclei (AGNs) through their optical variability. The high-cadence, high-precision TESS light curves present a unique […]

Cosmic Reionization On Computers: Baryonic Effects on Halo Concentrations During the Epoch of Reionization

Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Hanjue Zhu, Nickolay Y. Gnedin, , , | Summary: Baryons both increase halo concentration through adiabatic contraction and expel mass through feedback processes. However, it is not well understood how the radiation fields prevalent during the epoch of reionization affect the evolution of concentration in dark […]

An old warm Jupiter orbiting the metal-poor G-dwarf TOI-5542

Kavli Affiliate: Robert F. Goeke | First 5 Authors: Nolan Grieves, François Bouchy, Solène Ulmer-Moll, Samuel Gill, David R. Anderson | Summary: We report the discovery of a 1.32$^{+0.10}_{-0.10}$ $mathrm{M_{rm Jup}}$ planet orbiting on a 75.12 day period around the G3V $10.8^{+2.1}_{-3.6}$ Gyr old star TOI-5542 (TIC 466206508; TYC 9086-1210-1). The planet was first detected […]

Synthesizing Spectra from 3D Radiation Hydrodynamic Models of Massive Stars Using Monte Carlo Radiation Transport

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: William C. Schultz, Benny T. H. Tsang, Lars Bildsten, Yan-Fei Jiang, | Summary: Observations indicate that turbulent motions are present on most massive star surfaces. Starting from the observed phenomena of spectral lines with widths much larger than thermal broadening (e.g. micro- and macroturbulence) to the detection […]

Charge transfer dynamics in MoSe$_{2}$/hBN/WSe$_{2}$ heterostructures

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Yoseob Yoon, Zuocheng Zhang, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Sefaattin Tongay | Summary: Ultrafast charge transfer processes provide a facile way to create interlayer excitons and to generate single-cycle THz pulses in directly contacted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers. More sophisticated heterostructures composed of TMD/hBN/TMD can enable new […]

MAXI J1820+070 X-ray spectral-timing reveals the nature of the accretion flow in black hole binaries

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Tenyo Kawamura, Chris Done, Magnus Axelsson, Tadayuki Takahashi, | Summary: Black hole X-ray binaries in the low/hard states display significant broad-band (stochastic) variability on short time-scales (0.01-100 seconds), with a complex pattern of lags in correlated variability seen in different energy bands. This behaviour is generally interpreted […]
