GA-NIFS: Black hole and host galaxy properties of two z$simeq$6.8 quasars from the NIRSpec IFU

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Madeline A. Marshall, Michele Perna, Chris J. Willott, Roberto Maiolino, Jan Scholtz | Summary: Integral Field Spectroscopy (IFS) with JWST NIRSpec will significantly improve our understanding of the first quasars, by providing spatially resolved, infrared spectroscopic capabilities which cover key rest-frame optical emission lines that have been […]

Reconstruction of a surface from the category of reflexive sheaves

Kavli Affiliate: Alexey Bondal | First 5 Authors: Agnieszka Bodzenta, Alexey Bondal, , , | Summary: We define a normal surface $X$ to be codim-2-saturated if any open embedding of $X$ into a normal surface with the complement of codimension 2 is an isomorphism. We show that any normal surface $X$ allows a codim-2-saturated model […]

JADES: Probing interstellar medium conditions at $zsim5.5-9.5$ with ultra-deep JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Alex J. Cameron, Aayush Saxena, Andrew J. Bunker, Francesco D’Eugenio, Stefano Carniani | Summary: We present emission line ratios from a sample of 26 Lyman break galaxies from $zsim5.5-9.5$ with $-17.0<M_{1500}<-20.4$, measured from ultra-deep JWST/NIRSpec MSA spectroscopy from JADES. We use 28 hour deep PRISM/CLEAR and 7 […]

Variational Tensor Wavefunctions for the Interacting Quantum Spin Hall Phase

Kavli Affiliate: Shenghan Jiang | First 5 Authors: Yixin Ma, Shenghan Jiang, Chao Xu, , | Summary: The quantum spin hall (QSH) phase, also known as the two-dimensional topological insulator, hosts helical edge modes protected by time-reversal symmetry. While first proposed as a band insulator, this phase can also be realized in strongly-correlated systems, where […]

Variational Tensor Wavefunctions for the Interacting Quantum Spin Hall Phase

Kavli Affiliate: Shenghan Jiang | First 5 Authors: Yixin Ma, Shenghan Jiang, Chao Xu, , | Summary: The quantum spin hall (QSH) phase, also known as the 2D topological insulator, is characterized by protected helical edge modes arising from time reversal symmetry. While initially proposed for band insulators, this phase can also manifest in strongly-correlated […]

$g$-mode of neutron stars in pseudo-Newtonian gravity

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Hong-Bo Li, Yong Gao, Lijing Shao, Renxin Xu, | Summary: The equation of state (EOS) of nuclear dense matter plays a crucial role in many astrophysical phenomena associated with neutron stars (NSs). Fluid oscillations are one of the most fundamental properties therein. NSs support a family of […]

Rydberg Excitons and Trions in Monolayer MoTe$_2$

Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Souvik Biswas, AurĂ©lie Champagne, Jonah B. Haber, Supavit Pokawanvit, Joeson Wong | Summary: Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) semiconductors exhibit strong excitonic optical resonances which serve as a microscopic, non-invasive probe into their fundamental properties. Like the hydrogen atom, such excitons can exhibit an entire Rydberg […]

GRB 221009A: Discovery of an Exceptionally Rare Nearby and Energetic Gamma-Ray Burst

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Maia A. Williams, Jamie A. Kennea, S. Dichiara, Kohei Kobayashi, Wataru B. Iwakiri | Summary: We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI), and Neutron […]
