NuSTAR Observations of Abell 665 and 2146: Constraints on Non-Thermal Emission

Kavli Affiliate: Grzegorz Madejski | First 5 Authors: Randall Rojas Bolivar, Daniel Wik, Ayşegül Tümer, Fabio Gastaldello, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo | Summary: Observations from past missions such as RXTE and Beppo-SAX suggested the presence of inverse Compton (IC) scattering at hard X-ray energies within the intracluster medium of some massive galaxy clusters. In subsequent years, observations […]

Effect of Instrumental Polarization with a Half-Wave Plate on the $B$-Mode Signal: Prediction and Correction

Kavli Affiliate: Tomotake Matsumura | First 5 Authors: Guillaume Patanchon, Hiroaki Imada, Hirokazu Ishino, Tomotake Matsumura, | Summary: We evaluate the effect of half-wave plate (HWP) imperfections inducing intensity leakage to the measurement of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) $B$-mode polarization signal with future satellite missions focusing on the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$. The HWP is modeled […]

Batch Effects are Causal Effects: Applications in Human Connectomics

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Caffo, Joshua Vogelstein | Authors: Eric W. Bridgeford, Michael Powell, Gregory Kiar, Stephanie Noble, Jaewon Chung, Sambit Panda, Ross Lawrence, Ting Xu, Michael Milham, Brian Caffo and Joshua T. Vogelstein | Summary: Batch effects, undesirable sources of variance across multiple experiments, present significant challenges for scientific and clinical discoveries. Specifically, batch effects […]

Cosmological Distance Measurement of 12 Nearby Supernovae IIP with ROTSE-IIIB

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Govinda Dhungana, Robert Kehoe, Ryan Staten, Jozsef Vinko, J. Craig Wheeler | Summary: We present cosmological analysis of 12 nearby ($z<0.06$) Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP) observed with the ROTSE-IIIb telescope. To achieve precise photometry, we present a new image differencing technique that is implemented for the […]

On the detectability of strong lensing in near-infrared surveys

Kavli Affiliate: Philip J. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Philip Holloway, Aprajita Verma, Philip J. Marshall, Anupreeta More, Matthias Tecza | Summary: We present new lensing frequency estimates for existing and forthcoming deep near-infrared surveys, including those from JWST and VISTA. The estimates are based on the JAdes extraGalactic Ultradeep Artificial Realisations (JAGUAR) galaxy catalogue […]

Survey of X-rays from Massive Stars Observed at High Spectral Resolution with Chandra

Kavli Affiliate: David P. Huenemoerder | First 5 Authors: Pragati Pradhan, David P. Huenemoerder, Richard Ignace, Joy S. Nichols, A. M. T. Pollock | Summary: Identifying trends between observational data and the range of physical parameters of massive stars is a critical step to the still-elusive full understanding of the source, structure, and evolution of […]

Supermassive Primordial Black Holes From Inflation

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic, Albert Stebbins | First 5 Authors: Dan Hooper, Aurora Ireland, Gordan Krnjaic, Albert Stebbins, | Summary: There is controversy surrounding the origin and evolution of our universe’s largest supermassive black holes (SMBHs). In this study, we consider the possibility that some of these black holes formed from the direct collapse of […]
