Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: William M. Baker, Roberto Maiolino, Asa F. L. Bluck, Lihwai Lin, Sara L. Ellison | Summary: We investigate the nature of the scaling relations between the surface density of star formation rate ($Sigma _{rm SFR}$), stellar mass ($Sigma _*$), and molecular gas mass ($Sigma _{rm H_2}$), aiming […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Sperhake | First 5 Authors: Tomas Andrade, Llibert Areste Salo, Josu C. Aurrekoetxea, Jamie Bamber, Katy Clough | Summary: GRChombo is an open-source code for performing Numerical Relativity time evolutions, built on top of the publicly available Chombo software for the solution of PDEs. Whilst GRChombo uses standard techniques in NR, it […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Simcha Brownson, Asa F. L. Bluck, Roberto Maiolino, Gareth C. Jones, | Summary: We develop a 2D inclined rotating disc model, which we apply to the stellar velocity maps of 1862 galaxies taken from the MaNGA survey (SDSS public Data Release 15). We use a random forest […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Sperhake | First 5 Authors: Miren Radia, Ulrich Sperhake, Amelia Drew, Katy Clough, Pau Figueras | Summary: We demonstrate the flexibility and utility of the Berger-Rigoutsos Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) algorithm used in the open-source numerical relativity code GRChombo for generating gravitational waveforms from binary black-hole inspirals, and for studying other problems […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Lasenby | First 5 Authors: Michael Hobson, Anthony Lasenby, , , | Summary: We reconsider the status of the so-called second clock effect in Weyl gauge theories of gravity, which are invariant both under local Poincar’e transformations and local changes of scale. In particular, we revisit and extend our previous demonstration that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Sylvain Veilleux, David S. N. Rupke, Weizhe Liu, Anthony To, Margaret Trippe | Summary: This program is part of QUEST (Quasar/ULIRG Evolutionary Study) and seeks to examine the gaseous environments of z < 0.3 quasars and ULIRGs as a function of host galaxy properties and age across […]
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: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Sergio Martin-Alvarez, Julien Devriendt, Adrianne Slyz, Debora Sijacki, Mark L. A. Richardson | Summary: Our understanding of the process through which magnetic fields reached their observed strengths in present-day galaxies remains incomplete. One of the advocated solutions is a turbulent dynamo mechanism that rapidly amplifies weak magnetic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Rosie Y. Talbot, Debora Sijacki, Martin A. Bourne, , | Summary: Recent observations of Seyfert galaxies indicate that low power, misaligned jets can undergo significant interaction with the gas in the galactic disc and may be able to drive large-scale, multiphase outflows. We apply our novel sub-grid […]
