Optical selection bias and projection effects in stacked galaxy cluster weak lensing

Kavli Affiliate: Eli S. Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Hao-Yi Wu, Matteo Costanzi, Chun-Hao To, Andrés N. Salcedo, David H. Weinberg | Summary: Cosmological constraints from current and upcoming galaxy cluster surveys are limited by the accuracy of cluster mass calibration. In particular, optically identified galaxy clusters are prone to selection effects that can bias […]

Search for $B^{0} to K_S^{0}K_S^{0}γ$ decays at Belle

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle Collaboration, H. B. Jeon, K. H. Kang, H. Park, I. Adachi | Summary: We report the first search for the penguin-dominated process $B^0 rightarrow K_S^0 K_S^0 gamma$ using the full data sample of $772times 10^6$ $Bbar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy […]

Experimentally ruling out joint reality based on operational completeness

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Qiuxin Zhang, Yu Xiang, Xiaoting Gao, Chenhao Zhu, Yuxin Wang | Summary: Whether the observables of a physical system admit real values is of fundamental importance to a deep understanding of nature. In this work, we report a device-independent experiment to confirm that the joint reality of […]

The feasibility of constraining DM interactions with high-redshift observations by JWST

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Ali Kurmus, Sownak Bose, Mark Lovell, Francis-Yan Cyr-Racine, Mark Vogelsberger | Summary: Observations of the high redshift universe provide a promising avenue for constraining the nature of the dark matter (DM). This will be even more true following the now successful launch of the James Webb Space […]

From dawn till disk: Milky Way’s turbulent youth revealed by the APOGEE+Gaia data

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We use accurate estimates of aluminium abundance provided as part of the APOGEE Data Release 17 and Gaia Early Data Release 3 astrometry to select a highly pure sample of stars with metallicity $-1.5lesssim {rm [Fe/H]}lesssim 0.5$ born in-situ […]

Snowmass White Paper: Micro- and Macro-Structure of Black Holes

Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Iosif Bena, Emil J. Martinec, Samir D. Mathur, Nicholas P. Warner, | Summary: The black-hole information paradox provides a stringent test of would-be theories of quantum gravity. String theory has made significant progress toward a resolution of this paradox, and has led to the fuzzball and […]

Signature of Supersonic Turbulence in Galaxy Clusters

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Haojie Hu, Yu Qiu, Marie-Lou Gendron-Marsolais, Tamara Bogdanovic, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo | Summary: The hot intracluster medium (ICM) is thought to be quiescent with low observed velocity dispersions. Surface brightness fluctuations of the ICM also suggest that its turbulence is subsonic with a Kolmogorov scaling relation, indicating that […]

Tidally Tilted Pulsations in HD 265435, a subdwarf B Star with a Close White Dwarf Companion

Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Gerald Handler, Saul Rappaport, Jim Fuller, Donald W. Kurtz | Summary: Tidally tilted pulsators (TTPs) are an intriguing new class of oscillating stars in binary systems; in such stars, the pulsation axis coincides with the line of apsides, or semi-major axis, of the binary. All […]
