The Simons Observatory: Combining delensing and foreground cleaning for improved constraints on inflation

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Emilie Hertig, Kevin Wolz, Toshiya Namikawa, Antón Baleato Lizancos, Susanna Azzoni | Summary: The Simons Observatory (SO), a next-generation ground-based CMB experiment in its final stages of construction, will target primordial $B$-modes with unprecedented sensitivity to set tight bounds on the amplitude of inflationary gravitational waves. Aiming […]

Gliese 12 b, A Temperate Earth-sized Planet at 12 Parsecs Discovered with TESS and CHEOPS

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Shishir Dholakia, Larissa Palethorpe, Alexander Venner, Annelies Mortier, Thomas G. Wilson | Summary: We report on the discovery of Gliese 12 b, the nearest transiting temperate, Earth-sized planet found to date. Gliese 12 is a bright ($V=12.6$ mag, $K=7.8$ mag) metal-poor M4V star only $12.162pm0.005$ pc away […]

Personalized Residuals for Concept-Driven Text-to-Image Generation

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: Cusuh Ham, Matthew Fisher, James Hays, Nicholas Kolkin, Yuchen Liu | Summary: We present personalized residuals and localized attention-guided sampling for efficient concept-driven generation using text-to-image diffusion models. Our method first represents concepts by freezing the weights of a pretrained text-conditioned diffusion model and learning low-rank residuals […]

Implication of Jet Physics from MeV Line Emission of GRB 221009A

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Zhen Zhang, Haoxiang Lin, Zhuo Li, Shao-Lin Xiong, Yan-Qiu Zhang | Summary: Ultra-relativistic jets are believed to play important role in producing prompt emission and afterglow of gamma-ray burst (GRB), but the nature of the jet is poorly known owing to the lack of decisive features observed […]

GA-NIFS: Witnessing the complex assembly of a massive star-forming system at $z=5.7$

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Gareth C. Jones, Andrew J. Bunker, Kseniia Telikova, Santiago Arribas, Stefano Carniani | Summary: We present observations of the $zsim5.7$ Lyman-break galaxy HZ10 with the JWST/NIRSpec IFU in high and low spectral resolution (G395H, $Rsim2700$ and PRISM, $Rsim100$, respectively), as part of the GA-NIFS program. By spatially […]

Self-assembling clusters of particles on a shrinking liquid surface

Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Xin Li, Shuchen Zhang, Mark J. Bowick, Duanduan Wan, | Summary: After rainfall, pine needles are observed to float on the surface of small puddles. As the water evaporates, these pine needles exhibit spontaneous self-assembly into distinct clusters. Motivated by this natural phenomenon, we conducted experimental […]
