Tidal heating as a discriminator for horizons in equatorial eccentric extreme mass ratio inspirals

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | Summary:Tidal heating in a binary black hole system is driven by the absorption of energy and angular momentum by the black hole’s horizon. Previous works have shown that this phenomenon becomes particularly significant during the late stages of an extreme mass ratio inspiral (EMRI) into a rapidly spinning massive […]

LiDAR-Guided Cross-Attention Fusion for Hyperspectral Band Selection and Image Classification

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Judy X Yang, Jun Zhou, Jing Wang, Hui Tian, Wee Chung Liew | Summary: The fusion of hyperspectral and LiDAR data has been an active research topic. Existing fusion methods have ignored the high-dimensionality and redundancy challenges in hyperspectral images, despite that band selection methods have been […]

INvestigations of massive Filaments ANd sTar formation (INFANT). I. Core Identification and Core Mass Function

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yu Cheng, Xing Lu, Patricio Sanhueza, Hauyu Baobab Liu, Qizhou Zhang | Summary: Filamentary structures are ubiquitously found in high-mass star-forming clouds. To investigate the relationship between filaments and star formation, we carry out the INFANT (INvestigations of massive Filaments ANd sTar formation) survey, a multi-scale, multi-wavelength […]

The black hole low mass X-ray binary V404 Cygni is part of a wide hierarchical triple, and formed without a kick

Kavli Affiliate: Claude Canizares | Summary:Evidence suggests that when compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars form, they may receive a “natal kick,” where the stellar remnant gains momentum. Observational evidence for neutron star kicks is substantial, yet limited for black hole natal kicks, and some proposed black hole formation scenarios result in […]

Relation between the keV-MeV and TeV emission of GRB 221009A and its implications

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Yan-Qiu Zhang, Hao-Xiang Lin, Shao-Lin Xiong, Zhuo Li, Ming-Yu Ge | Summary: Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to launch relativistic jets, which generate prompt emission by internal processes, and produce long-lasting afterglows by driving external shocks into surrounding medium. However, how the jet powers the external shock […]
