Self-Driving Telescopes: Autonomous Scheduling of Astronomical Observation Campaigns with Offline Reinforcement Learning

Posted by dbos Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1]], [#item_custom_name[2]], [#item_custom_name[3]], [#item_custom_name[4]], [#item_custom_name[5]] | Summary: Modern astronomical experiments are designed to achieve multiple scientific goals, from studies of galaxy evolution to cosmic acceleration. These goals require data of many different classes of night-sky objects, each of which has a particular set of observational needs. These […]

Forecasting constraints on the no-hair theorem from the stochastic gravitational wave background

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Chen Tan, Ke Wang, , , | Summary: Although the constraints on general relativity (GR) from each individual gravitational-wave (GW) event can be combined to form a cumulative estimate of the deviations from GR, the ever-increasing number of GW events used also leads to the ever-increasing computational […]

L-function genera and applications

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Andrei Okounkov | Summary:We introduce equivariant L-genera associated to actions of Galois and related groups on algebraic varieties. We explain the role which these L-genera play in the spectral analysis of Eisenstein series. We also discuss the natural categorification of L-genera and its potential role in enumerative geometry. | Search Query: arXiv Query: […]

Generation of Isocurvature from Curvature Inhomogeneities on Super-Horizon Scales

Posted by dbos Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Albert Stebbins | First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1]], [#item_custom_name[2]], [#item_custom_name[3]], [#item_custom_name[4]], [#item_custom_name[5]] | Summary: Here it is shown 1) how isocurvature inhomogeneities correlated on causally disconnected (super-horizon) scales are generated from curvature inhomogeneities which are known to be correlated on these scales 2) that super-horizon isocurvature generation is nearly inevitable for non-equilibrium chemical processes […]

Impact of Indoor Mobility Behavior on the Respiratory Infectious Diseases Transmission Trends

Posted by dbos UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Ziwei Cui, Ming Cai, Zheng Zhu, Gongbo Chen, Yao Xiao | Summary: The importance of indoor human mobility in the transmission dynamics of respiratory infectious diseases has been acknowledged. Previous studies have predominantly addressed a single type of mobility behavior such as queueing and a series of […]
