Rarely categorical, always high-dimensional: how the neural code changes along the cortical hierarchy

Posted by dbos Columbia

Kavli Affiliate: Liam Paninski | Authors: Stefano Fusi and Liam Paninski | Summary: The brain is highly structured both at anatomical and functional levels. However, within individual brain areas, neurons often exhibit very diverse and seemingly disorganized responses. A more careful analysis shows that these neurons can sometimes be grouped together into specialized subpopulations (categorical […]

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Insights on Maximizing Efficiency in Lag Measurements and Black-Hole Masses

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Y. Homayouni, Yuanzhe Jiang, W. N. Brandt, C. J. Grier, Jonathan R. Trump | Summary: Multi-year observations from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) project have significantly increased the number of quasars with reliable reverberation-mapping lag measurements. We statistically analyze target properties, light-curve characteristics, […]

How do uncertainties in galaxy formation physics impact field-level galaxy bias?

Posted by dbos Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Mahlet Shiferaw, Nickolas Kokron, Risa H. Wechsler, , | Summary: Our ability to extract cosmological information from galaxy surveys is limited by uncertainties in the galaxy-dark matter halo relationship for a given galaxy population, which are governed by the intricacies of galaxy formation. To quantify these […]

A comprehensive study of type I (thermonuclear) bursts in the new transient SRGA J144459.2$-$604207

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Tao Fu, Zhaosheng Li, Yuanyue Pan, Long Ji, Yupeng Chen | Summary: We report an analysis of Insight-HXMT observations of the newly discovered accreting millisecond pulsar SRGA J144459.2$-$604207. During the outburst, detected in 2024 February by SRG/ART-XC, the broadband persistent spectrum was well fitted by an absorbed […]
