Kavli Affiliate: Robert Simcoe | First 5 Authors: T. Emil Rivera-Thorsen, Håkon Dahle, Max Gronke, Matthew Bayliss, Jane Rigby | Summary: We present rest-frame ultraviolet and optical spectroscopy of the brightest lensed galaxy yet discovered, at redshift z = 2.4. This source reveals a characteristic, triple-peaked Lyman {alpha} profile which has been predicted by various […]
Kavli Affiliate: Steven Kahn | First 5 Authors: Jason Rhodes, Robert C. Nichol, Éric Aubourg, Rachel Bean, Dominique Boutigny | Summary: Euclid and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) are poised to dramatically change the astronomy landscape early in the next decade. The combination of high cadence, deep, wide-field optical photometry from LSST with high […]
Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Guillem Domènech, Misao Sasaki, , , | Summary: In view of growing interest in tensor modes and their possible detection, we clarify the definition of tensor modes up to 2nd order in perturbation theory within the Hamiltonian formalism. Like in gauge theory, in cosmology the Hamiltonian is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edmund Bertschinger | First 5 Authors: David M. Hernandez, Edmund Bertschinger, , , | Summary: Calculating the long term solution of ordinary differential equations, such as those of the $N$-body problem, is central to understanding a wide range of dynamics in astrophysics, from galaxy formation to planetary chaos. Because generally no analytic solution […]
Kavli Affiliate: R. G. McMahon | First 5 Authors: Bram Venemans, Fabian Walter, Roberto Decarli, Carl Ferkinhoff, Axel Weiss | Summary: We present ALMA band 3 observations of the CO(6-5), CO(7-6), and [CI] 369micron emission lines in three of the highest redshift quasar host galaxies at 6.6<z<6.9. These measurements constitute the highest-redshift CO detections to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi Wesley Masui | First 5 Authors: Kiyoshi Wesley Masui, Ue-Li Pen, Neil Turok, , | Summary: We show that three-dimensional information is critical to discerning the effects of parity violation in the primordial gravity-wave background. If present, helical gravity waves induce parity-violating correlations in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) between parity-odd polarization […]
Kavli Affiliate: R. G. McMahon | First 5 Authors: Bram Venemans, Fabian Walter, Roberto Decarli, Eduardo Banados, Jacqueline Hodge | Summary: We present ALMA observations of the [CII] fine structure line and the underlying far-infrared (FIR) dust continuum emission in J1120+0641, the most distant quasar currently known (z=7.1). We also present observations targeting the CO(2-1), […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yukari Ito | First 5 Authors: Alastair Craw, Yukari Ito, Joseph Karmazyn, , | Summary: Given a scheme $Y$ equipped with a collection of globally generated vector bundles $E_1, dots, E_n$, we study the universal morphism from $Y$ to a fine moduli space $mathcal{M}(E)$ of cyclic modules over the endomorphism algebra of $E:=mathcal{O}_Yoplus […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ralf Kaehler | First 5 Authors: Ralf Kaehler, , , , | Summary: This paper presents an accurate density computation approach for large dark matter simulations, based on a recently introduced phase-space tessellation technique and designed for massively parallel, heterogeneous cluster architectures. We discuss a memory efficient construction of an oct-tree structure to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Abraham Stroock | First 5 Authors: Olivier Vincent, Bastien Marguet, Abraham Stroock, , | Summary: We study the spatio-temporal dynamics of water uptake by capillary condensation from unsaturated vapor in mesoporous silicon layers (pore radius $r_mathrm{p} simeq 2$ nm), taking advantage of the local changes in optical reflectance as a function of water […]
