Multiwavelength Observations of the Apparently Non-repeating FRB 20250316A

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Ye Li, Ye Li, , , | Summary: The physical origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs) remains uncertain. Although multiwavelength observations offer critical diagnostics and have been widely conducted, only Galactic FRB~20200428D is associated with an X-ray burst from the magnetar SGR J1935+2154. Here, we present multiwavelength […]

Narrowing the discovery space of the cosmological 21-cm signal using multi-wavelength constraints

Posted by klaurent Cambridge

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Jiten Dhandha, Jiten Dhandha, , , | Summary: The cosmic 21-cm signal is a promising probe of the early Universe, owing to its sensitivity to the thermal state of the neutral intergalactic medium (IGM) and properties of the first luminous sources. In this work, we constrain the […]

X-ray selected broad absorption line quasars in SDSS-V: BALs and non-BALs span the same range of X-ray properties

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: Broad absorption line (BAL) quasars are often considered X-ray weak relative to their optical/UV luminosity, whether intrinsically (i.e., the coronal emission is fainter) or due to large column densities of absorbing material. The SDSS-V is providing optical spectroscopy for samples of […]

Benchmarking spike source localization algorithms in high density probes

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Hao Zhao, Hao Zhao, , , | Summary: Estimating neuron location from extracellular recordings is essential for developing advanced brain-machine interfaces. Accurate neuron localization improves spike sorting, which involves detecting action potentials and assigning them to individual neurons. It also helps monitor probe drift, which affects long-term […]

Robust Live Streaming over LEO Satellite Constellations: Measurement, Analysis, and Handover-Aware Adaptation

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Hao Fang, Hao Fang, , , | Summary: Live streaming has experienced significant growth recently. Yet this rise in popularity contrasts with the reality that a substantial segment of the global population still lacks Internet access. The emergence of Low Earth orbit Satellite Networks (LSNs), such as […]
