Polarized Blazar X-rays imply particle acceleration in shocks

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Maria I. Bernardos | Summary: Most of the light from blazars, active galactic nuclei with jets of magnetized plasma that point nearly along the line of sight, is produced by high-energy particles, up to $sim 1$ […]

Polarized Blazar X-rays imply particle acceleration in shocks

Kavli Affiliate: Grzegorz M. Madejski | First 5 Authors: Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Maria I. Bernardos | Summary: Blazars are active galactic nuclei that launch collimated, powerful jets of magnetized relativistic plasma. Their primary jet, whose emission typically spans from low-frequency radio to very high-energy ($gtrsim0.1$ TeV) $gamma$-rays (Blandford […]

Categorical and K-theoretic Donaldson-Thomas theory of $mathbb{C}^3$ (part II)

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Yukinobu Toda, , , | Summary: Quasi-BPS categories appear as summands in semiorthogonal decompositions of DT categories for Hilbert schemes of points in the three dimensional affine space and in the categorical Hall algebra of the two dimensional affine space. In this paper, we prove […]

On Detecting Nearby Nano-Hertz Gravitational Wave Sources via Pulsar Timing Arrays

Kavli Affiliate: Qingjuan Yu | First 5 Authors: Xiao Guo, Youjun Lu, Qingjuan Yu, , | Summary: Massive binary black holes (MBBHs) in nearby galactic centers, if any, may be nano-Hertz gravitational wave (GW) sources for pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) to detect. Normally the objective GWs for PTA experiments are approximated as plane waves because […]

Coherent control of a nuclear spin via interactions with a rare-earth ion in the solid-state

Kavli Affiliate: Viatcheslav V. Dobrovitski | First 5 Authors: Mehmet T. Uysal, Mouktik Raha, Songtao Chen, Christopher M. Phenicie, Salim Ourari | Summary: Individually addressed Er$^{3+}$ ions in solid-state hosts are promising resources for quantum repeaters, because of their direct emission in the telecom band and compatibility with silicon photonic devices. While the Er$^{3+}$ electron […]

Revealing the order parameter dynamics of 1T-TiSe$_2$ following optical excitation

Kavli Affiliate: Alessandra Lanzara | First 5 Authors: Maximilian Huber, Yi Lin, Nicholas Dale, Renee Sailus, Sefaattin Tongay | Summary: The formation of a charge density wave state is characterized by an order parameter. The way it is established provides unique information on both the role that correlation plays in driving the charge density wave […]
