Variability as a predictor for the hard-to-soft state transition in GX 339-4

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Matteo Lucchini, Marina Ten Have, Jingyi Wang, Jeroen Homan, Erin Kara | Summary: During the outbursts of black hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs), their accretion flows transition through several states. The source luminosity rises in the hard state, dominated by non-thermal emission, before transitioning to the blackbody-dominated soft […]

An end-to-end calibration of the Mini-EUSO detector in space

Kavli Affiliate: Angela Olinto | First 5 Authors: Hiroko Miyamoto, Matteo Battisti, Dario Barghini, Alexander Belov, Mario Bertaina | Summary: Mini-EUSO is a wide Field-of-View (FoV, 44$^{circ}$) telescope currently in operation from a nadia-facing UV-transparent window in the Russian Zvezda module on the International Space Station (ISS). It is the first detector of the JEM-EUSO […]

On the Impact of Cross-Domain Data on German Language Models

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Amin Dada, Aokun Chen, Cheng Peng, Kaleb E Smith, Ahmad Idrissi-Yaghir | Summary: Traditionally, large language models have been either trained on general web crawls or domain-specific data. However, recent successes of generative large language models, have shed light on the benefits of cross-domain datasets. To examine […]

Lyman Continuum Emission from Spectroscopically Confirmed Ly$α$ Emitters at $zsim3.1$

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: We present a study of Lyman continuum (LyC) emission in a sample of $sim$150 Ly$alpha$ emitters (LAEs) at $zapprox3.1$ in the Subaru-XMM Deep Survey field. These LAEs were previously selected using the narrowband technique and spectroscopically confirmed with Ly$alpha$ equivalent widths […]

The Slicer Combined with Array of Lenslets for Exoplanet Spectroscopy (SCALES): driving science cases and expected outcomes

Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: The Slicer Combined with Array of Lenslets for Exoplanet Spectroscopy (SCALES) is a $2-5~mu$m, high-contrast integral field spectrograph (IFS) currently being built for Keck Observatory. With both low ($Rlesssim250$) and medium ($Rsim3500-7000$) spectral resolution IFS modes, SCALES will detect and characterize […]
