Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Linhua Jiang, Zhiwei Pan, Jessica Nicole Aguilar, Steven Ahlen, Robert Blum | Summary: We present strong constraints on the spacetime variation of the fine-structure constant $alpha$ using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). In this pilot work, we utilize $sim110,000$ galaxies with strong and narrow O III […]
Kavli Affiliate: Denis Wirtz | Authors: Lucie Dequiedt, Andre Forjaz, Jamie O. Lo, Owen J McCarty, Pei-Hsun Wu, Avi Rosenberg, Denis Wirtz and Ashley L. Kiemen | Summary: Kidneys are among the most structurally complex organs in the body. Their architecture is critical to ensure proper function and is often impacted by diseases such as […]

Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Tariq Hilmi, Denis Erkal, Sergey E. Koposov, Ting S. Li, Sophia Lilleengen | Summary: In the cold dark matter paradigm, our Galaxy is predicted to contain >10000 dark matter subhaloes in the $10^5-10^8M_odot$ range which should be completely devoid of stars. Stellar streams are sensitive to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Yu Pan, Xiang Zhang, Yuguang Yang, Jixun Yao, Yanni Hu | Summary: Neural speech codecs have recently emerged as a focal point in the fields of speech compression and generation. Despite this progress, achieving high-quality speech reconstruction under low-bitrate scenarios remains a significant challenge. In this paper, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Jeremiah D. Paul, Richard M. Plotkin, W. N. Brandt, Christopher H. Ellis, Elena Gallo | Summary: The supermassive black holes ($M_{rm BH} sim 10^{6}$$-$$10^{10}~M_odot$) that power luminous active galactic nuclei (AGNs), i.e., quasars, generally show a correlation between thermal disk emission in the ultraviolet (UV) and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Fengwei Xu, Ke Wang, Tie Liu, Lei Zhu, Guido Garay | Summary: Leveraging the high resolution, high sensitivity, and wide frequency coverage of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), the QUARKS survey, standing for "Querying Underlying mechanisms of massive star formation with ALMA-Resolved gas Kinematics and Structures", […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Amanda M. Farah, Thomas A. Callister, Jose María Ezquiaga, Michael Zevin, Daniel E. Holz | Summary: Gravitational waves (GWs) from merging compact objects encode direct information about the luminosity distance to the binary. When paired with a redshift measurement, this enables standard-siren cosmology: a Hubble diagram […]
