The {it AGORA} High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. VIII: Disk Formation and Evolution of Simulated Milky Way Mass Galaxy Progenitors at $1<z<5$

Posted by dbos Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Abel | First 5 Authors: Minyong Jung, Ji-hoon Kim, Thinh H. Nguyen, Ramon Rodriguez-Cardoso, Santi Roca-Fàbrega | Summary: We investigate how differences in the stellar feedback produce disks with different morphologies in Milky Way-like progenitors over 1 $leq z leq 5$, using eight state-of-the-art cosmological hydrodynamics simulation codes in the textit{AGORA} project. […]

OTI on FIRE: Testing the Efficacy of Orbital Torus Imaging to Recover the Galactic Potential

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Micah Oeur, Sarah R. Loebman, Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Arpit Arora, Lina Necib | Summary: Orbital Torus Imaging (OTI) is a dynamical inference method for determining the Milky Way’s gravitational potential using stellar survey data. OTI uses gradients in stellar astrophysical quantities, such as element abundances, as functions […]

The THESAN-ZOOM project: Star formation efficiency from giant molecular clouds to galactic scale in high-redshift starbursts

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Zihao Wang, Xuejian Shen, Mark Vogelsberger, Hui Li, Rahul Kannan | Summary: Star formation in galaxies is inherently complex, involving the interplay of physical processes over a hierarchy of spatial scales. In this work, we investigate the connection between global (galaxy-scale) and local (cloud-scale) star formation efficiencies […]

The Emergence of Little Red Dots from Binary Massive Black Holes

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Kohei Inayoshi, Jinyi Shangguan, Xian Chen, Luis C. Ho, Zoltan Haiman | Summary: Little red dots (LRDs) are a newly identified class of broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) with a distinctive v-shape spectrum characterized by red optical and blue UV continuum emission. Their high abundance at redshifts […]

KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c: A Cold Super-Jupiter with a Saturn Sibling

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Hongyu Li, Jiyuan Zhang, Cheongho Han, Weicheng Zang, Youn Kil Jung | Summary: We present the discovery and analysis of the sixth microlensing two-planet system, KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c, detected by a follow-up program targeting high-magnification events. Both planets are subject to the well-known ”Close/Wide” degeneracy, although for the first […]

From First Draft to Final Insight: A Multi-Agent Approach for Feedback Generation

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Jie Cao, Chloe Qianhui Zhao, Xian Chen, Shuman Wang, Christian Schunn | Summary: Producing large volumes of high-quality, timely feedback poses significant challenges to instructors. To address this issue, automation technologies-particularly Large Language Models (LLMs)-show great potential. However, current LLM-based research still shows room for improvement in […]

Diverse and Flexible Strategies Enable Successful Cooperation in Marmoset Dyads

Posted by dbos Yale

Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy | Authors: Olivia C Meisner, Weikang Shi, Amrita Nair, Gargi Nandy, Monika P Jadi, Anirvan S Nandy and Steve W. C. Chang | Summary: In humans, cooperation relies on advanced social cognition, but the extent to which these mechanisms support cooperation in nonhuman primates remains unclear. To investigate this, we examined […]
