Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: April Qiu Cheng, Michael Zevin, Salvatore Vitale, , | Summary: One of the goals of gravitational-wave astrophysics is to infer the number and properties of the formation channels of binary black holes (BBHs); to do so, one must be able to connect various models with the data. […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed | Summary: We present a measurement of time-dependent rate asymmetries in $B^0to phi K^0_S$ decays to search for non-standard-model physics in $bto q overline{q}s$ transitions. The data sample is collected with the Belle II detector at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kaisey Mandel | First 5 Authors: Rebekah Hounsell, Dan Scolnic, Dillon Brout, Benjamin Rose, Ori Fox | Summary: We motivate the cosmological science case of measuring Type Ia supernovae with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope as part of the High Latitude Time Domain Survey. We discuss previously stated requirements for the science, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Roberto Abril Valenzuela, Paul Z. Hanakata, Mark J. Bowick, , | Summary: We study the finite-temperature dynamics of thin elastic sheets in a single-clamped cantilever configuration. This system is known to exhibit a tilt transition at which the preferred mean plane of the sheet shifts from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Theodor Pribulla, Tamás Borkovits, Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport, Tibor Mitnyan | Summary: We have found that the 2+2 quadruple star system BU CMi is currently the most compact quadruple system known, with an extremely short outer period of only 121 days. The previous record holder was TIC […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Álvaro G. Iñesta, Stephanie Wehner, , , | Summary: Entangled states shared among distant nodes are frequently used in quantum network applications. When quantum resources are abundant, entangled states can be continuously distributed across the network, allowing nodes to consume them whenever necessary. This continuous distribution of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Rongmon Bordoloi, Robert A. Simcoe, Jorryt Matthee, Daichi Kashino, Ruari Mackenzie | Summary: We report new observations of the cool diffuse gas around 29, $2.3<z<6.3$ galaxies, using deep JWST/NIRCam slitless grism spectroscopy around the sightline to the quasar J0100+2802. The galaxies span a stellar mass range […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Gerrit Schellenberger, Ákos Bogdán, John A. ZuHone, Benjamin D. Oppenheimer, Nhut Truong | Summary: The Astro2020 Decadal Survey has identified the mapping of the circumgalactic medium (CGM, gaseous plasma around galaxies) as a key objective. We explore the prospects for characterizing the CGM in and around nearby […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kent Irwin | First 5 Authors: William R. Coulton, Mathew S. Madhavacheril, Adriaan J. Duivenvoorden, J. Colin Hill, Irene Abril-Cabezas | Summary: Observations of the millimeter sky contain valuable information on a number of signals, including the blackbody cosmic microwave background (CMB), Galactic emissions, and the Compton-$y$ distortion due to the thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich […]
