A transiting, temperate mini-Neptune orbiting the M dwarf TOI-1759 unveiled by TESS

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Néstor Espinoza, Enric Pallé, Jonas Kemmer, Rafael Luque, José A. Caballero | Summary: We report the discovery and characterization of TOI-1759~b, a temperate (400 K) sub-Neptune-sized exoplanet orbiting the M~dwarf TOI-1759 (TIC 408636441). TOI-1759 b was observed by TESS to transit on sectors 16, 17 and 24, […]

X-ray Coronal Properties of Swift/BAT-Selected Seyfert 1 Active Galactic Nuclei

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Nikita Kamraj, Murray Brightman, Fiona A. Harrison, Daniel Stern, Javier A. García | Summary: The corona is an integral component of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) which produces the bulk of the X-ray emission above 1–2 keV. However, many of its physical properties and the mechanisms powering this […]

Deep sub-wavelength localization of light and sound in dielectric resonators

Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | First 5 Authors: Alkim Bozkurt, Chaitali Joshi, Mohammad Mirhosseini, , | Summary: Optomechanical crystals provide coupling between phonons and photons by confining them to commensurate wavelength-scale dimensions. We present a new concept for designing optomechanical crystals capable of achieving unprecedented coupling rates by confining optical and mechanical waves to deep […]

Topological Graph-based Analysis of Solid-State Ion Migration

Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Jimmy-Xuan Shen, Haoming Howard Li, Ann Rutt, Matthew K. Horton, Kristin A. Persson | Summary: To accelerate the development of novel ion-conducting materials, we present a general graph-theoretic analysis framework for ion migration in any crystalline structure. The nodes of the graph represent metastable sites of […]

Mitigating the effects of particle background on the Athena Wide-Field Imager

Kavli Affiliate: Steven Allen | First 5 Authors: Eric D. Miller, Catherine E. Grant, Marshall W. Bautz, Silvano Molendi, Ralph Kraft | Summary: The Wide Field Imager (WFI) flying on Athena will usher in the next era of studying the hot and energetic Universe. WFI observations of faint, diffuse sources will be limited by uncertainty […]

X-ray morphology of cluster-mass haloes in self-interacting dark matter

Kavli Affiliate: Adam Mantz | First 5 Authors: Xuejian Shen, Thejs Brinckmann, David Rapetti, Mark Vogelsberger, Adam Mantz | Summary: We perform cosmological zoom-in simulations of $19$ relaxed cluster-mass haloes with the inclusion of adiabatic gas in the cold dark matter (CDM) and self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) models. These clusters are selected as dynamically relaxed […]
