Two-dimensional models of core-collapse supernova explosions assisted by heavy sterile neutrinos

Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Kanji Mori, Tomoya Takiwaki, Kei Kotake, Shunsaku Horiuchi, | Summary: Core-collapse supernovae can be a copious source of sterile neutrinos, hypothetical particles that mix with active neutrinos. We develop two-dimensional stellar core-collapse models that incorporate the mixing between tau neutrinos and heavy sterile neutrinos — those with […]

Velocity Dispersions of Quiescent Galaxies in IllustirisTNG

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Jubee Sohn, Margaret J. Geller, Josh Borrow, Mark Vogelsberger, | Summary: We examine the central stellar velocity dispersion of subhalos based on IllustrisTNG cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. The central velocity dispersion is a fundamental observable that links galaxies with their dark matter subhalos. We carefully explore simulated stellar […]

C. elegans LIN-66 mediates EIF-3.G-dependent protein translation via a cold-shock domain

Kavli Affiliate: Yishi Jin | Authors: Yishi Jin, Stephan M Blazie, Daniel Fortunati and Yan Zhao | Summary: Protein translation initiation is a complex and conserved process involving many proteins acting in concert. The eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) complex is essential for the assembly of the pre-initiation complex that scans and positions mRNA at […]
