JWST-TST High Contrast: Asymmetries, dust populations and hints of a collision in the $β$ Pictoris disk with NIRCam and MIRI

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Isabel Rebollido, Christopher C. Stark, Jens Kammerer, Marshall D. Perrin, Kellen Lawson | Summary: We present the first JWST MIRI and NIRCam observations of the prominent debris disk around Beta Pictoris. Coronagraphic observations in 8 filters spanning from 1.8 to 23~$mu$m provide an unprecedentedly clear view of […]

Nonparametric worst-case bounds for publication bias on the summary receiver operating characteristic curve

Posted by dbos UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yi Zhou, Ao Huang, Satoshi Hattori, , | Summary: The summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve has been recommended as one important meta-analytical summary to represent the accuracy of a diagnostic test in the presence of heterogeneous cutoff values. However, selective publication of diagnostic studies for meta-analysis […]

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Huiling Chen, Yang Huang, Wei Zhu, Timothy C. Beers, Renjing Xie | Summary: A recent study by Hon et al. reported that a close-in planet around the red clump star, 8 UMi, should have been engulfed during the expansion phase of its parent star’s evolution. They explained […]
