Kavli Affiliate: Hirosi Ooguri | First 5 Authors: Nathan Benjamin, Jaeha Lee, Hirosi Ooguri, David Simmons-Duffin, | Summary: Equilibrium finite temperature observables of a CFT can be described by a local effective action for background fields — a "thermal effective action." This effective action determines the asymptotic density of states of a CFT as a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Rosie Y. Talbot, Debora Sijacki, Martin A. Bourne, , | Summary: In this work, we use hydrodynamical simulations to explore the effects of kinetic AGN jet feedback on the progression and outcome of the major merger of two isolated, gas-rich galaxies. We present simulations that use the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Felix Fischer | First 5 Authors: Refik Mansuroglu, Felix Fischer, Michael J. Hartmann, , | Summary: Nonequilibrium time evolution of large quantum systems is a strong candidate for quantum advantage. Variational quantum algorithms have been put forward for this task, but their quantum optimization routines suffer from trainability and sampling problems. Here, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Wenxiu Li, Kohei Inayoshi, Masafusa Onoue, Wanqiu He, Yoshiki Matsuoka | Summary: The evolution of the quasar luminosity function (QLF) is fundamental to understanding the cosmic evolution of black holes (BHs) through their accretion phases. In the era of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), Euclid, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hu Zhan | First 5 Authors: Chen Qiu, Nicola R. Napolitano, Rui Li, Yuedong Fang, Crescenzo Tortora | Summary: Bulge-disk (B-D) decomposition is an effective diagnostic to characterize the galaxy morphology and understand its evolution across time. So far, high-quality data have allowed detailed B-D decomposition to redshift below 0.5, with limited excursions […]

Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Jorryt Matthee, Rohan P. Naidu, Gabriel Brammer, John Chisholm, Anna-Christina Eilers | Summary: Characterising the prevalence and properties of faint active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the early Universe is key for understanding the formation of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and determining their role in cosmic reionization. […]

Kavli Affiliate: Vahe Petrosian | First 5 Authors: Lindsay Glesener, Albert Y. Shih, Amir Caspi, Ryan Milligan, Hugh Hudson | Summary: Understanding the nature of energetic particles in the solar atmosphere is one of the most important outstanding problems in heliophysics. Flare-accelerated particles compose a huge fraction of the flare energy budget; they have large […]
