Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Harry T. J. Bevins, Stefan Heimersheim, Irene Abril-Cabezas, Anastasia Fialkov, Eloy de Lera Acedo | Summary: Observations of the first billion years of cosmic history are currently limited. We demonstrate, using a novel machine learning technique, the synergy between observations of the sky-averaged 21-cm signal from neutral […]

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Harry T. J. Bevins, Stefan Heimersheim, Irene Abril-Cabezas, Anastasia Fialkov, Eloy de Lera Acedo | Summary: The first billion years of cosmic history remains largely unobserved. We demonstrate, using a novel machine learning technique, how combining upper limits on the spatial fluctuations in the 21-cm signal with […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Sperhake | First 5 Authors: Tamara Evstafyeva, Ulrich Sperhake, Thomas Helfer, Robin Croft, Miren Radia | Summary: We present a generalization of the curative initial data construction derived for equal-mass compact binaries in Helfer {it et al} (2019 Phys. Rev. D 99 044046; 2022 Class. Quantum Grav. 39 074001) to arbitrary mass […]

Kavli Affiliate: E. P. S. Shellard | First 5 Authors: Amelia Drew, E. P. S. Shellard, , , | Summary: We implement adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) simulations of global topological strings using the public code, GRChombo. We perform a quantitative investigation of massive radiation from single sinusoidally displaced string configurations, studying a range of string […]

Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Sergio Martin-Alvarez, Debora Sijacki, Martin G. Haehnelt, Marion Farcy, Yohan Dubois | Summary: Enshrouded in several well-known controversies, dwarf galaxies have been extensively studied to learn about the underlying cosmology, notwithstanding that physical processes regulating their properties are poorly understood. To shed light on these processes, we […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Dominika Wylezalek, Andrey Vayner, David S. N. Rupke, Nadia L. Zakamska, Sylvain Veilleux | Summary: Extremely red quasars, with bolometric luminosities exceeding $10^{47}$ erg s$^{-1}$, are a fascinating high-redshift population that is absent in the local universe. They are the best candidates for supermassive black holes accreting […]

Kavli Affiliate: Martin Haehnelt | First 5 Authors: Harley Katz, Aayush Saxena, Joki Rosdahl, Taysun Kimm, Jeremy Blaizot | Summary: We use the SPHINX$^{20}$ cosmological radiation hydrodynamics simulation to study how Lyman Continuum (LyC) photons escape from galaxies and the observational signatures of this escape. We define two classes of LyC leaker: Bursty Leakers and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Sperhake | First 5 Authors: Vitor Cardoso, David Hilditch, Krinio Marouda, José Natário, Ulrich Sperhake | Summary: Stationary compact astrophysical objects such as black holes and neutron stars behave as classical systems from the gravitational point of view. Their (observable) curvature is everywhere "small". Here we investigate whether mergers of such objects, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Fengwu Sun, Eiichi Egami, Nor Pirzkal, Marcia Rieke, Stefi Baum | Summary: We present a sample of four emission-line galaxies at $z=6.11-6.35$ that were serendipitously discovered using the commissioning data for the JWST/NIRCam wide-field slitless spectroscopy (WFSS) mode. One of them (at $z=6.11$) has been reported previously […]

Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Challinor | First 5 Authors: Frank J. Qu, Anthony Challinor, Blake D. Sherwin, , | Summary: Reconstruction of gravitational lensing effects in the CMB from current and upcoming surveys is still dominated by temperature anisotropies. Extragalactic foregrounds in temperature maps can induce significant biases in the lensing power spectrum obtained with the […]
