Kavli Affiliate: Ralf K. Heilmann | First 5 Authors: Ralf K. Heilmann, David P. Huenemoerder, Jake A. McCoy, Randall L. McEntaffer, | Summary: X-ray diffraction gratings play an essential role in high-resolution spectroscopy of astrophysical phenomena. We present some scientific highlights from the X-ray grating spectrometers (XGS) on board of the Chandra and XMM/Newton missions, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: The BICEP/Keck Collaboration, :, Y. Nakato, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed | Summary: Measurements of B-mode polarization in the CMB sourced from primordial gravitational waves would provide information on the energy scale of inflation and its potential form. To achieve these goals, one must carefully characterize […]

Kavli Affiliate: Blake Sherwin | First 5 Authors: Helen Shao, Jahmour J. Givans, Jo Dunkley, Mathew Madhavacheril, Frank Qu | Summary: The sum of cosmic neutrino masses can be measured cosmologically, as the sub-eV particles behave as `hot’ dark matter whose main effect is to suppress the clustering of matter compared to a universe with […]

Kavli Affiliate: Cosmin Deaconu | First 5 Authors: Stephanie Wissel, Andrew Zeolla, Cosmin Deaconu, Valentin Decoene, Kaeli Hughes | Summary: Neutrinos at ultrahigh energies can originate both from interactions of cosmic rays at their acceleration sites and through cosmic-ray interactions as they propagate through the universe. These neutrinos are expected to have a low flux […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Margherita Giustini, Giovanni Miniutti, Riccardo Arcodia, Adelle Goodwin, Kate D. Alexander | Summary: Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are an extreme X-ray variability phenomenon associated with low-mass supermassive black holes. First discovered in the nucleus of the galaxy GSN 069, they have been so far securely detected in five […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Shenglan Sun, Ke Wang, Xunchuan Liu, Fengwei Xu, | Summary: Long and skinny molecular filaments running along Galactic spiral arms are known as "bones", since they make up the skeleton of the Milky Way. However, their origin is still an open question. Here, we compare spectral images […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ronald Hanson | First 5 Authors: Yanik Herrmann, Julius Fischer, Stijn Scheijen, Cornelis F. J. Wolfs, Julia M. Brevoord | Summary: Open microcavities offer great potential for the exploration and utilization of efficient spin-photon interfaces with Purcell-enhanced quantum emitters thanks to their large spectral and spatial tunability combined with high versatility of sample […]
