Towards precision particle background estimation for future X-ray missions: correlated variability between Chandra ACIS and AMS

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Foster | First 5 Authors: Catherine E. Grant, Eric D. Miller, Marshall W. Bautz, Richard Foster, Ralph P. Kraft | Summary: A science goal of many future X-ray observatories is mapping the cosmic web through deep exposures of faint diffuse sources. Such observations require low background and the best possible knowledge of […]

Near-infrared Extragalactic Background Light Fluctuations on Nonlinear Scales

Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: Yun-Ting Cheng, James J. Bock, , , | Summary: Several fluctuation studies on the near-infrared extragalactic background light (EBL) find an excess power at tens of arcminute scales ($ellsim10^3$). Emission from the intra-halo light (IHL) has been proposed as a possible explanation for the excess signal. […]

A Gradual Decline of Star Formation since Cluster In-fall: New Kinematic Insights into Environmental Quenching at 0.3 $< z <$ 1.1

Kavli Affiliate: Michael A. McDonald | First 5 Authors: Keunho J. Kim, Matthew B. Bayliss, Allison G. Noble, Gourav Khullar, Ethan Cronk | Summary: The environments where galaxies reside crucially shape their star formation histories. We investigate a large sample of 1626 cluster galaxies located within 105 galaxy clusters spanning a large range in redshift […]

Benchmarking quantum logic operations relative to thresholds for fault tolerance

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | First 5 Authors: Akel Hashim, Stefan Seritan, Timothy Proctor, Kenneth Rudinger, Noah Goss | Summary: Contemporary methods for benchmarking noisy quantum processors typically measure average error rates or process infidelities. However, thresholds for fault-tolerant quantum error correction are given in terms of worst-case error rates — defined via the diamond […]
