Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Su Yao, Xiaolong Yang, Minfeng Gu, Tao An, Jun Yang | Summary: The jet in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is a key ingredient in understanding the co-evolution of galaxies and their central supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Unfortunately, the mechanism of jet launching and collimation is still elusive. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Chunwei Hsu, Theo A. Costi, David Vogel, Christina Wegeberg, Marcel Mayor | Summary: Probing the universal low temperature magnetic field scaling of Kondo-correlated quantum dots via electrical conductance has proved to be experimentally challenging. Here, we show how to probe this in nonlinear […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kaisey Mandel | First 5 Authors: Clayton Roberts, Oliver Shorttle, Kaisey Mandel, Matthew Jones, Rutger Ijzermans | Summary: Methane is a strong greenhouse gas, with a higher radiative forcing per unit mass and shorter atmospheric lifetime than carbon dioxide. The remote sensing of methane in regions of industrial activity is a key step […]

Kavli Affiliate: Katrin Heitmann | First 5 Authors: Nesar Ramachandra, Jonás Chaves-Montero, Alex Alarcon, Arindam Fadikar, Salman Habib | Summary: Photometric redshift estimation algorithms are often based on representative data from observational campaigns. Data-driven methods of this type are subject to a number of potential deficiencies, such as sample bias and incompleteness. Motivated by these […]
Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | First 5 Authors: Tolga Guver, Tugba Boztepe, David R. Ballantyne, Z. Funda Bostanci, Peter Bult | Summary: We present spectral and temporal properties of all the thermonuclear X-ray bursts observed from Aql X-1 by the Neutron Star Interior and Composition Explorer (NICER) between 2017 July and 2021 April. This is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simeon Hellerman | First 5 Authors: Simeon Hellerman, Domenico Orlando, Vito Pellizzani, Susanne Reffert, Ian Swanson | Summary: The unitary Fermi gas, by virtue of its description as a nonrelativistic conformal field theory, has proven an interesting system by which the quantum properties of CFT can be held to experimental verification. Here, we […]

Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport, Lorne Nelson, Donald W. Kurtz, George Dufresne | Summary: Using the novel TESS 20-sec cadence data, we have discovered an unusual combination of pulsating stars in what we infer to be a binary system. The primary is a standard $delta$ Scuti star with […]
Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Ian Wong, Avi Shporer, George Zhou, Daniel Kitzmann, Thaddeus D. Komacek | Summary: We report the discovery of an ultrahot Jupiter with an extremely short orbital period of $0.67247414,pm,0.00000028$ days ($sim$16 hr). The $1.347 pm 0.047$ $R_{rm Jup}$ planet, initially identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey […]
