Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We present a new scheme for the classification of the in-situ and accreted globular clusters (GCs). The scheme uses total energy $E$ and $z$-component of the orbital angular momentum and is calibrated using [Al/Fe] abundance ratio. We demonstrate that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Angela V. Olinto | First 5 Authors: Angela V. Olinto, , , , | Summary: The Probe Of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA) was designed as a NASA Astrophysics probe-class mission to identify the sources of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) and observe cosmic neutrinos from extremely energetic transient sources. POEMMA consists of two […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lindsey Bleem | First 5 Authors: Josemanuel Hernandez, Lindsey Bleem, Thomas Crawford, Nicholas Huang, Yuuki Omori | Summary: We explore the relationship between the thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (tSZ) power spectrum amplitude and the halo mass and redshift of galaxy clusters in South Pole Telescope (SPT) data, in comparison with three $N$-body simulations combined with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wendy L. Freedman | First 5 Authors: Barry F. Madore, Wendy L. Freedman, , , | Summary: Using an updated and significantly augmented sample of Cepheid and TRGB distances to 28 nearby spiral and irregular galaxies, covering a wide range of metallicities, we have searched for evidence of a correlation of the zero-point […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Adam M. Dillamore, Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, Andreea S. Font, | Summary: We investigate the formation (spin-up) of galactic discs in the ARTEMIS simulations of Milky Way-mass galaxies. In almost all galaxies discs spin up at higher [Fe/H] than the Milky Way (MW). Those that contain an […]
Kavli Affiliate: Richard Kessler | First 5 Authors: Brodie Popovic, Daniel Scolnic, Maria Vincenzi, Mark Sullivan, Dillon Brout | Summary: Future constraints of cosmological parameters from Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) will depend on the use of photometric samples, those samples without spectroscopic measurements of the SNe Ia. There is a growing number of analyses […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wendy L. Freedman | First 5 Authors: Wendy L. Freedman, Barry F. Madore, , , | Summary: One of the most exciting and pressing issues in cosmology today is the discrepancy between some measurements of the local Hubble constant and other values of the expansion rate inferred from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) […]

Kavli Affiliate: Edward W. Kolb | First 5 Authors: Christian Capanelli, Leah Jenks, Edward W. Kolb, Evan McDonough, | Summary: The Kalb-Ramond field is an antisymmetric, rank-two tensor field which most notably appears in the context of string theory, but has largely been unexplored in the context of cosmology. In this work, motivated by the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Angela V. Olinto | First 5 Authors: Johannes Eser, Angela V. Olinto, Lawrence Wiencke, , | Summary: Observing ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) and very high energy (VHE) neutrinos from space is a promising way to measure their extremely low fluxes by significantly increasing the observed volume. The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on […]
