Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Ruoqi Wang, Haitao Wang, Qiong Luo, Feng Wang, Hejun Wu | Summary: Radio telescopes produce visibility data about celestial objects, but these data are sparse and noisy. As a result, images created on raw visibility data are of low quality. Recent studies have used deep learning models […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Fangzheng Shi, Feng Yuan, Zhiyuan Li, Zhao Su, Suoqing Ji | Summary: Supermassive black holes in galaxies spend majority of their lifetime in the low-luminosity regime, powered by hot accretion flow. Strong winds launched from the hot accretion flow have the potential to play an important role […]
Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Zhi-Hao Huang, Yi Tan, Wei Jia, Long Zhang, Xiong-Jun Liu | Summary: Three-dimensional 3rd-order topological insulators (TOTIs) and superconductors (TOTSCs), as the highestorder topological phases hosting zero corner modes in physical dimension, has sparked extensive research interest. However, such topological states have not been discovered in reality […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Nadiia M. Kostogryz, Alexander I. Shapiro, Veronika Witzke, Robert H. Cameron, Laurent Gizon | Summary: Stars appear darker at their limbs than at their disk centers because at the limb we are viewing the higher and cooler layers of stellar photospheres. Limb darkening derived from state-of-the-art stellar […]

Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Lior Michaeli, Ramon Gao, Michael D. Kelzenberg, Claudio U. Hail, Adrien Merkt | Summary: Ultrathin lightsails propelled by laser radiation pressure to relativistic speeds are currently the most promising route for flyby-based exoplanet exploration. However, there has been a notable lack of experimental characterization of key […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Michele L. Silverstein, Thomas Barclay, Joshua E. Schlieder, Karen A. Collins, Richard P. Schwarz | Summary: The nearby LHS 1678 (TOI-696) system contains two confirmed planets and a wide-orbit, likely-brown-dwarf companion, which orbit an M2 dwarf with a unique evolutionary history. The host star occupies a narrow […]

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Junyao Li, John D. Silverman, Yue Shen, Marta Volonteri, Knud Jahnke | Summary: JWST is revealing a new remarkable population of high-redshift ($zgtrsim4$), low-luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) in deep surveys and detecting the host galaxy stellar light in the most luminous and massive quasars at […]
