Kavli Affiliate: John E. Bowers | First 5 Authors: Chen Shang, Weng W. Chow, Galan Moody, John E. Bowers, | Summary: A study was performed to determine the extent cavity enhancement may increase single-photon production while maintaining single-photon purity. It was found that certain combinations of cavity lifetime and light-matter coupling strength can lead to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joshua A. Frieman | First 5 Authors: Anowar J. Shajib, Tommaso Treu, Sherry H. Suyu, David Law, Akın Yıldırım | Summary: Spatially resolved stellar kinematics has become a key ingredient in time-delay cosmography to break the mass-sheet degeneracy in the mass profile and, in turn, provide a precise constraint on the Hubble constant […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Benjamin Cohen, Alexander P. Ji, Peter S. Ferguson, Sergey E. Koposov, Alex Drlica-Wagner | Summary: Stellar streams are sensitive laboratories for understanding the small-scale structure in our Galaxy’s gravitational field. Here, we analyze the morphology of the $300S$ stellar stream, which has an eccentric, retrograde orbit […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Charbonneau | First 5 Authors: Juliana García-Mejía, Zoë L. de Beurs, Patrick Tamburo, Andrew Vanderburg, David Charbonneau | Summary: We present a ground-based transit detection of HIP 41378 f, a long-period ($P = 542$ days), extremely low-density ($0.09 pm 0.02$ g cm$^{-3}$) giant exoplanet in a dynamically complex system. Using photometry from […]
