Experimentally ruling out joint reality based on operational completeness

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Qiuxin Zhang, Yu Xiang, Xiaoting Gao, Chenhao Zhu, Yuxin Wang | Summary: Whether the observables of a physical system admit real values is of fundamental importance to a deep understanding of nature. In this work, we report a device-independent experiment to confirm that the joint reality of […]

LensingETC: a tool to optimize multi-filter imaging campaigns of galaxy-scale strong lensing systems

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Frieman | First 5 Authors: Anowar J. Shajib, Karl Glazebrook, Tania Barone, Geraint F. Lewis, Tucker Jones | Summary: Imaging data is the principal observable required to use galaxy-scale strong lensing in a multitude of applications in extragalactic astrophysics and cosmology. In this paper, we develop Lensing Exposure Time Calculator (LensingETC) to […]

The feasibility of constraining DM interactions with high-redshift observations by JWST

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Ali Kurmus, Sownak Bose, Mark Lovell, Francis-Yan Cyr-Racine, Mark Vogelsberger | Summary: Observations of the high redshift universe provide a promising avenue for constraining the nature of the dark matter (DM). This will be even more true with the advent of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). […]

Signature of Supersonic Turbulence in Galaxy Clusters Revealed by AGN-driven H$α$ Filaments

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Haojie Hu, Yu Qiu, Marie-Lou Gendron-Marsolais, Tamara Bogdanovic, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo | Summary: The hot intracluster medium (ICM) is thought to be quiescent with low observed velocity dispersions. Surface brightness fluctuations of the ICM also suggest that its turbulence is subsonic with a Kolmogorov scaling relation, indicating that […]

Snowmass White Paper: Micro- and Macro-Structure of Black Holes

Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Iosif Bena, Emil J. Martinec, Samir D. Mathur, Nicholas P. Warner, | Summary: The black-hole information paradox provides a stringent test of would-be theories of quantum gravity. String theory has made significant progress toward a resolution of this paradox, and has led to the fuzzball and […]

From dawn till disk: Milky Way’s turbulent youth revealed by the APOGEE+Gaia data

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We use accurate estimates of aluminium abundance provided as part of the APOGEE Data Release 17 and Gaia Early Data Release 3 astrometry to select a highly pure sample of stars with metallicity $-1.5lesssim {rm [Fe/H]}lesssim 0.5$ born in-situ […]

Tidally Tilted Pulsations in HD 265435, a subdwarf B Star with a Close White Dwarf Companion

Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Gerald Handler, Saul Rappaport, Jim Fuller, Donald W. Kurtz | Summary: Tidally tilted pulsators (TTPs) are an intriguing new class of oscillating stars in binary systems; in such stars, the pulsation axis coincides with the line of apsides, or semi-major axis, of the binary. All […]
