Enrichment by Extragalactic First Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Anirudh Chiti, Mohammad Mardini, Guilherme Limberg, Anna Frebel, Alexander P. Ji | Summary: The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is the Milky Way’s most massive satellite galaxy, which only recently (~2 billion years ago) fell into our Galaxy. Since stellar atmospheres preserve their natal cloud’s composition, the LMC’s […]

How well does surface magnetism represent deep Sun-like star dynamo action?

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Cameron | First 5 Authors: Adam J. Finley, Sacha A. Brun, Antoine Strugarek, Robert Cameron, | Summary: For Sun-like stars, the generation of toroidal magnetic field from poloidal magnetic field is an essential piece of the dynamo mechanism powering their magnetism. Previous authors have estimated the net toroidal flux generated in each […]

Thresholds for the distributed surface code in the presence of memory decoherence

Kavli Affiliate: Tim H. Taminiau | First 5 Authors: Sébastian de Bone, Paul Möller, Conor E. Bradley, Tim H. Taminiau, David Elkouss | Summary: In the search for scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing, distributed quantum computers are promising candidates. These systems can be realized in large-scale quantum networks or condensed onto a single chip with closely […]

Observation of periodic optical spectra and soliton molecules in a novel passively mode-locked fiber laser

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Haobin Zheng, Kangrui Chang, Yong Shen, Yongzhuang Zhou | Summary: Due to the necessity of making a series of random adjustments after mode-locking in most experiments for preparing soliton molecules, the repeatability of the preparations remains a challenge. Here, we introduce a novel all-polarization-maintaining erbium-doped […]

Observation of periodic optical spectra and soliton molecules in a novel passively mode-locked fiber laser

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Haobin Zheng, Kangrui Chang, Yong Shen, Yongzhuang Zhou | Summary: Due to the necessity of making a series of fine adjustments after mode-locking in most experiments for preparing soliton molecules, the repeatability of the preparations remains a challenge. Here, we propose a novel all-polarization-maintaining erbium-doped […]

Chronicling the reionization history at $6lesssim z lesssim 7$ with emergent quasar damping wings

Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Dominika Ďurovčíková, Anna-Christina Eilers, Huanqing Chen, Sindhu Satyavolu, Girish Kulkarni | Summary: The spectra of high-redshift ($zgtrsim 6$) quasars contain valuable information on the progression of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). At redshifts $z<6$, the observed Lyman-series forest shows that the intergalactic medium (IGM) is nearly […]

Forecasts for Galaxy Formation and Dark Matter Constraints from Dwarf Galaxy Surveys

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Ethan O. Nadler, Vera Gluscevic, Trey Driskell, Risa H. Wechsler, Leonidas A. Moustakas | Summary: The abundance of faint dwarf galaxies is determined by the underlying population of low-mass dark matter (DM) halos and the efficiency of galaxy formation in these systems. Here, we quantify potential […]
