Unfolding X-ray Spectral Data: Conditions and Applications

Kavli Affiliate: David P. Huenemoerder | First 5 Authors: Sean J. Gunderson, David P. Huenemoerder, , , | Summary: We present conditions for which X-ray spectra can be “unfolded” to present accurate representation of the true source spectra. The method we use to unfold the data is implemented in the textit{Interactive Spectral Interpretation Software} citep{Houck2000} […]

Connecting the X-ray/UV variability of Fairall 9 with NICER: A Possible Warm Corona

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Ethan R. Partington, Edward M. Cackett, Rick Edelson, Keith Horne, Jonathan Gelbord | Summary: The Seyfert 1 AGN Fairall 9 was targeted by NICER, Swift, and ground-based observatories for a $sim$1000-day long reverberation mapping campaign. The following analysis of NICER spectra taken at a two-day cadence provides […]

Blind source separation of the stellar halo

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Elliot Y. Davies, Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, Stephanie Monty, GyuChul Myeong | Summary: The stellar halo of the Milky Way comprises an abundance of chemical signatures from accretion events and textit{in-situ} evolution, that form an interweaving tapestry in kinematic space. To untangle this, we consider the mixtures […]

$texttt{StreamSculptor}$: Hamiltonian Perturbation Theory for Stellar Streams in Flexible Potentials with Differentiable Simulations

Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Jacob Nibauer, Ana Bonaca, David N. Spergel, Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Jenny E. Greene | Summary: Stellar streams retain a memory of their gravitational interactions with small-scale perturbations. While perturbative models for streams have been formulated in action-angle coordinates, a direct transformation to these coordinates is only […]

Data-Efficient Low-Complexity Acoustic Scene Classification via Distilling and Progressive Pruning

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Bing Han, Wen Huang, Zhengyang Chen, Anbai Jiang, Pingyi Fan | Summary: The goal of the acoustic scene classification (ASC) task is to classify recordings into one of the predefined acoustic scene classes. However, in real-world scenarios, ASC systems often encounter challenges such as recording device mismatch, […]

Superposition- and interference-induced optical spectrum distortion in the figure-9 fiber laser

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Guochao Wang, Kangrui Chang, Haobin Zheng, Yongzhuang Zhou | Summary: The spectrum of the output pulses from the figure-9 laser typically exhibits more distortion than the spectra from mode-locked lasers based on other saturable absorbers and the spectrum of its intracavity pulses. Here, we demonstrate […]

Evidence for a shock-compressed magnetic field in the northwestern rim of Vela Jr. from X-ray polarimetry

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Dmitry A. Prokhorov, Yi-Jung Yang, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Jacco Vink, Patrick Slane | Summary: Synchrotron X-ray emission has been detected from nearly a dozen young supernova remnants (SNRs). X-rays of synchrotron origin exhibit linear polarization in a regular, non-randomly oriented magnetic field. The significant polarized X-ray emission […]

A simple accurate way to model noise-seeded ultrafast nonlinear processes

Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wise | First 5 Authors: Yi-Hao Chen, Frank Wise, , , | Summary: Noise can play an important role in nonlinear pulse propagation. It is not only the origin of fluctuations in supercontinuum but can also determine the generated signal amplitude and phase, as seen in phenomena such as noise-seeded four-wave mixing […]
