Kavli Affiliate: Jin Kang | Authors: Alexandra Nelson and Anatol Kreitzer | Summary: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the death of substantia nigra (SNc) dopamine (DA) neurons, but the pathophysiological mechanisms that precede and drive their death remain unknown. The activity of DA neurons is likely altered in PD, but we understand little about […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Mary Anne Limbach, Johanna M. Vos, Andrew Vanderburg, Fei Dai, | Summary: We conduct a comprehensive search for transiting exomoons and exosatellites within 44 archival Spitzer light curves of 32 substellar worlds with estimated masses ranging between 3-30M$_{rm Jup}$. This sample’s median host mass is 16M$_{rm Jup}$, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Juri Poutanen, Sergey S. Tsygankov, Victor Doroshenko, Sofia V. Forsblom, Peter Jenke | Summary: Discovery of pulsations from a number of ULXs proved that accretion onto neutron stars can produce luminosities exceeding the Eddington limit by several orders of magnitude. The conditions necessary to achieve such […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Juri Poutanen, Sergey S. Tsygankov, Victor Doroshenko, Sofia V. Forsblom, Peter Jenke | Summary: Discovery of pulsations from a number of ultra-luminous X-ray (ULX) sources proved that accretion onto neutron stars can produce luminosities exceeding the Eddington limit by a couple of orders of magnitude. The […]

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Zewei Wu, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We present estimates of the ultraviolet (UV) and Lyman continuum flux density contributed by galaxies of luminosities from $M_{rm UV}approx -25$ to $M_{rm UV}=-4$ at redshifts $5leq zleq 10$ using a galaxy formation model that reproduces properties of local […]

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Hillary Diane Andales, Ananda Santos Figueiredo, Casey Gordon Fienberg, Mohammad K. Mardini, Anna Frebel | Summary: We present a detailed chemical abundance and kinematic analysis of six extremely metal-poor ($-4.2 leq$ [Fe/H] $leq-$2.9) halo stars with very low neutron-capture abundances ([Sr/H] and [Ba/H]) based on high-resolution Magellan/MIKE […]
