Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Hanpu Liu, Kohei Inayoshi, , , | Summary: Massive black holes (BHs) grow by gas accretion and mergers, observable through electromagnetic (EM) and gravitational wave (GW) emission. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has detected faint active galactic nuclei (AGNs), revealing an abundant population of accreting BHs […]
Kavli Affiliate: Qingjuan Yu | First 5 Authors: Yunfeng Chen, Qingjuan Yu, Youjun Lu, , | Summary: The gravitational waves (GWs) from supermassive binary black holes (BBHs) are long sought by pulsar timing array experiments (PTAs), in the forms of both a stochastic GW background (GWB) and individual sources. The evidence for a GWB was […]
Kavli Affiliate: Vahe Petrosian | First 5 Authors: Meng Jin, Gang Li, Nariaki Nitta, Wei Liu, Vahe Petrosian | Summary: Shocks driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are primary drivers of gradual solar energetic particle (SEP) events, posing significant risks to space technology and astronauts. Concurrently, particles accelerated at these shocks may also propagate back […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Su-Di Chen, Qixin Feng, Wenyu Zhao, Ruishi Qi, Zuocheng Zhang | Summary: Two-dimensional semiconductors and their moir’e superlattices have emerged as important platforms for investigating correlated electrons. However, many key properties of these systems, such as the frequency-dependent conductivity, remain experimentally inaccessible because of the mesoscopic sample […]
Kavli Affiliate: Oskar Painter | First 5 Authors: Harald Putterman, Kyungjoo Noh, Rishi N. Patel, Gregory A. Peairs, Gregory S. MacCabe | Summary: Cat qubits, a type of bosonic qubit encoded in a harmonic oscillator, can exhibit an exponential noise bias against bit-flip errors with increasing mean photon number. Here, we focus on cat qubits […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Bitao Wang, Yingjie Peng, , , | Summary: The bimodality in the stellar spin of low redshift (massive) galaxies, ubiquitously existing at all star formation levels and in diverse environment, suggests that galaxies grow and quench through two diverged evolutionary pathways. For spheroid-dominated galaxies of slow stellar […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Bitao Wang, Yingjie Peng, Michele Cappellari, , | Summary: The hierarchical structure formation of our Universe inherently involves violent and chaotic episodes of mass assembly such as galaxy mergers. The level of bulk rotation of the collisionless stellar systems of galaxies reflects to what extent the galaxies, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Qi Bi, Jinhui Guo, Jia Liu, Yan Luo, Xiao-Ping Wang | Summary: We explore the potential of studying sterile neutrinos at a future high-energy muon collider, where these particles can generate small active neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism and exhibit long-lived particle signatures. A Dirac sterile […]
