Growth and characterization of single crystal cubic TaN and hexagonal Ta$_2$N films on c-plane Sapphire

Kavli Affiliate: Grace Xing | First 5 Authors: Anand Ithepalli, Amit Rohan Rajapurohita, Arjan Singh, Rishabh Singh, John Wright | Summary: Two single crystal phases of tantalum nitride were stabilized on c-plane sapphire using molecular beam epitaxy. The phases were identified to be $delta$-TaN with a rocksalt cubic structure and $gamma$-Ta$_2$N with a hexagonal structure. […]

Asteroseismic Study of Subgiants and Giants of the Open Cluster M67 using Kepler/K2: Expanded Sample and Precise Masses

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Claudia Reyes, Dennis Stello, Marc Hon, Yaguang Li, Timothy R. Bedding | Summary: Sparked by the asteroseismic space revolution, ensemble studies have been used to produce empirical relations linking observed seismic properties and fundamental stellar properties. Cluster stars are particularly valuable because they have the same metallicity, […]

Cross-Model Validation of Coronagraphic Exposure Time Calculators for the Habitable Worlds Observatory: A Report from the Exoplanet Science Yield sub-Working Group

Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Christopher C. Stark, Sarah Steiger, Armen Tokadjian, Dmitry Savransky, Rus Belikov | Summary: Estimating the exoplanet scientific productivity of the Habitable Worlds Observatory requires estimating science exposure times. From exoplanet yields to spectral retrievals, exposure times are at the heart of our understanding of the capabilities of […]
