Dynamical Modeling of the CIV Broad Line Region of the $z=2.805$ Multiply Imaged Quasar SDSS J2222+2745

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Gladders | First 5 Authors: Peter R. Williams, Tommaso Treu, Håkon Dahle, Stefano Valenti, Louis Abramson | Summary: We present CIV BLR modeling results for the multiply imaged $z=2.805$ quasar SDSS J2222+2745. Using data covering a 5.3 year baseline after accounting for gravitational time delays, we find models that can reproduce the […]

Four-Spin Terms and the Origin of the Chiral Spin Liquid in Mott Insulators on the Triangular Lattice

Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Tessa Cookmeyer, Johannes Motruk, Joel E. Moore, , | Summary: At strong repulsion, the triangular-lattice Hubbard model is described by $s=1/2$ spins with nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interactions and exhibits conventional 120$^circ$ order. Using the infinite density matrix renormalization group and exact diagonalization, we study the effect […]

Evolution of Splashback Boundaries and Gaseous Outskirts: Insights from Mergers of Self-similar Galaxy Clusters

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Congyao Zhang, Irina Zhuravleva, Andrey Kravtsov, Eugene Churazov, | Summary: A self-similar spherical collapse model predicts a dark matter (DM) splashback and accretion shock in the outskirts of galaxy clusters while misses a key ingredient of structure formation – processes associated with mergers. To fill this gap, […]

Imaging local discharge cascades for correlated electrons in WS2/WSe2 moiré superlattices

Kavli Affiliate: Michael F. Crommie | First 5 Authors: Hongyuan Li, Shaowei Li, Mit H. Naik, Jingxu Xie, Xinyu Li | Summary: Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) moir’e heterostructures provide an ideal platform to explore the extended Hubbard model1 where long-range Coulomb interactions play a critical role in determining strongly correlated electron states. This has led […]

The Lack of Non-Thermal Motions in Galaxy Cluster Cores

Kavli Affiliate: Sunil Golwala | First 5 Authors: Jack Sayers, Mauro Sereno, Stefano Ettori, Elena Rasia, Weiguang Cui | Summary: We report the non-thermal pressure fraction (Pnt/Ptot) obtained from a three-dimensional triaxial analysis of 16 galaxy clusters in the CLASH sample using gravitational lensing (GL) data primarily from Subaru and HST, X-ray spectroscopic imaging from […]

Improved Treatment of Host-Galaxy Correlations in Cosmological Analyses With Type Ia Supernovae

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Kessler | First 5 Authors: Brodie Popovic, Dillon Brout, Richard Kessler, Dan Scolnic, Lisa Lu | Summary: Improving the use of Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) as standard candles requires a better approach to incorporate the relationship between SNIa and the properties of their host galaxies. Using a spectroscopically-confirmed sample of $sim$1600 SNIa, […]
