Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara| First 5 Authors: Hermine Landt, Hermine Landt, , , | Summary:The AGN Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping 2 (STORM 2) campaign targeted Mrk 817 with intensive multi-wavelength monitoring and found its soft X-ray emission to be strongly absorbed. We present results from 157 near-IR spectra with an average cadence of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Hsiao-Mei (Sherry) Cho| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:Accurately estimating semantic aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties in large language models (LLMs) is particularly challenging in free-form question answering (QA), where obtaining stable estimates often requires many expensive generations. We introduce a diversity-steered sampler that discourages semantically redundant outputs during decoding, covers […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, Belle II Collaboration, , , | Summary: We measure the time- and phase-space-integrated $CP$ asymmetry $A_CP$ in $D^0topi^+pi^-pi^0$ decays reconstructed in $e^+e^-to cbar c$ events collected by the Belle II experiment from 2019 to 2022. This sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 428 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrei Okounkov | Summary:In our paper arXiv:1701.03146 we established, for every simply-laced Lie algebra g, a canonical isomorphism between the spaces of deformed conformal blocks of the deformed W-algebra and the quantum affine algebra corresponding to g, which we view as a q-deformation of the quantum Langlands correspondence. This was done by realizing […]
Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | Summary:Sagittarius A* exhibits daily energetic flares characterized by non-thermal emission in the infrared and X-ray bands. While the underlying accretion flow is a Radiatively Inefficient Accretion Flow (RIAF) peaking at radio frequencies, the mechanism powering these non-thermal transients remains debated. Stellar dynamics predict a population of faint brown dwarfs […]

While the underlying accretion flow is a Radiatively Inefficient […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Tingfang Su, Tingfang Su, , , | Summary: The role of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback in dwarf galaxies remains poorly understood, with conventional wisdom suggesting it primarily suppresses star formation. Using high-resolution MACER3D simulations that directly resolve the Bondi radius, we demonstrate that AGN feedback can […]
Kavli Affiliate: Aaron Roodman | Summary:Strong gravitational lensing of active galactic nuclei (AGN) enables measurements of cosmological parameters through time-delay cosmography (TDC). With data from the upcoming LSST survey, we anticipate using a sample of O(1000) lensed AGN for TDC. To prepare for this dataset and enable this measurement, we construct and analyze a realistic […]
