SuperFIRE: Concept evolution of a seeing-limited broadband spectrograph for the GMT

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Simcoe | Summary:We are developing the SuperFIRE concept, which builds on the heritage of the FIRE spectrograph at Magellan, as a broadband (about 340 nm to 2.5 um) intermediate resolution (R=10,000) single-shot natural seeing spectrograph for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) with support from the Kavli Foundation. This single-object spectrograph is envisioned […]

Bias-preserving cat-cat CNOT gate via vacuum-conditional beam-splitter

Kavli Affiliate: Oskar Painter | Summary:Cat qubits can exhibit strong noise bias due to their exponentially enhanced bit-flip times and only polynomially reduced phase-flip times with increasing photon number, which makes them attractive candidates for hardware-efficient quantum error correction. However, it is difficult to maintain this strong noise bias in logical operations such as CNOT […]

The JDISC Survey: Inner Disk Chemistry of Class I/FS Disks and Tentative Evidence for Early Pebble Drift

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Long| Summary: We present the first chemical survey of Class I and Flat-Spectrum (I/FS) disks using JWST MIRI/MRS, targeting sixteen sources in the Ophiuchus star-forming region. Through empirical line luminosity measurements and multi-component slab modeling, we characterize the molecular reservoir of these young systems and compare them to twelve Class II disks […]

Unsupervised selection and characterisation of Little Red Dots in JWST surveys with manifold learning

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | Summary:Little Red Dots (LRDs) are compact, red sources discovered at high redshift by JWST whose physical nature and selection function remain debated. We investigate whether an unsupervised machine-learning approach applied to multi-band photometry can identify LRD-like objects, and other populations, without relying on predefined colour cuts. Using UMAP, a manifold-learning […]

BOSS-CLAM: Utilizing a Constrained Linear Absorption Model to Infer Stellar Parameters from BOSS Spectra

Kavli Affiliate: Alexander Ji | Summary:Large spectroscopic surveys require robust pipelines capable of inferring stellar parameters over a wide range of the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram from data of varying quality. SDSS-V is one such survey, where the data from the lower-resolution, optical BOSS spectrograph will provide a large dataset covering a wide range of Galactic […]

Payne4GAIN: NLTE Corrections for Red Giants in Milky Way Mapper using H-Band Neural Network Emulators

Kavli Affiliate: Alexander Ji | Summary:The majority of spectroscopic surveys assume local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) during the modeling of stellar spectra. This assumption begins to break down for luminous stars, like the red giants targeted by SDSS-V’s Milky Way Mapper Survey in its Galactic Genesis program. In this work, we present non-LTE (NLTE) abundances for […]
