Ion-beam Assisted Sputtering of Titanium Nitride Thin Films

Kavli Affiliate: Clarence Chang | First 5 Authors: Timothy Draher, Tomas Polakovic, Juliang Li, Yi Li, Ulrich Welp | Summary: Titanium nitride is a material of interest for many superconducting devices such as nanowire microwave resonators and photon detectors. Thus, controlling the growth of TiN thin films with desirable properties is of high importance. In […]

ELVES IV: The Satellite Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation Beyond the Milky-Way

Shany Danieli, Jenny E. Greene, Scott Carlsten, Fangzhou Jiang, Rachael Beaton | Summary: [[{“value”:”Quantifying the connection between galaxies and their host dark matter halos has been key for testing cosmological models on various scales. Below $M_star sim 10^9,M_odot$, such studies have primarily relied on the satellite galaxy population orbiting the Milky Way. Here we present […]

DialogConv: A Lightweight Fully Convolutional Network for Multi-view Response Selection

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Yongkang Liu, Shi Feng, Wei Gao, Daling Wang, Yifei Zhang | Summary: Current end-to-end retrieval-based dialogue systems are mainly based on Recurrent Neural Networks or Transformers with attention mechanisms. Although promising results have been achieved, these models often suffer from slow inference or huge number of parameters. […]

BICEP / Keck XVII: Line of Sight Distortion Analysis: Estimates of Gravitational Lensing, Anisotropic Cosmic Birefringence, Patchy Reionization, and Systematic Errors

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: BICEP/Keck Collaboration, :, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri | Summary: We present estimates of line-of-sight distortion fields derived from the 95 GHz and 150 GHz data taken by BICEP2, BICEP3, and Keck Array up to the 2018 observing season, leading to cosmological constraints and […]

Using Host Galaxy Photometric Redshifts to Improve Cosmological Constraints with Type Ia Supernova in the LSST Era

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Kessler | First 5 Authors: Ayan Mitra, Richard Kessler, Surhud More, Renee Hlozek, The LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration | Summary: We perform a rigorous cosmology analysis on simulated type Ia supernovae (SN~Ia) and evaluate the improvement from including photometric host-galaxy redshifts compared to using only the "zspec" subset with spectroscopic redshifts […]

BICEP / Keck XVI: Characterizing Dust Polarization through Correlations with Neutral Hydrogen

Kavli Affiliate: C. L. Kuo | First 5 Authors: BICEP/Keck Collaboration, :, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri | Summary: We characterize Galactic dust filaments by correlating BICEP/Keck and Planck data with polarization templates based on neutral hydrogen (H I) observations. Dust polarization is important for both our understanding of astrophysical processes in […]
