Generation of Isocurvature from Curvature Inhomogeneities on Super-Horizon Scales

Kavli Affiliate: Albert Stebbins | First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1]], [#item_custom_name[2]], [#item_custom_name[3]], [#item_custom_name[4]], [#item_custom_name[5]] | Summary: Here it is shown 1) how isocurvature inhomogeneities correlated on causally disconnected (super-horizon) scales are generated from curvature inhomogeneities which are known to be correlated on these scales 2) that super-horizon isocurvature generation is nearly inevitable for non-equilibrium chemical processes […]

Domain Adaptation for Measurements of Strong Gravitational Lenses

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1]], [#item_custom_name[2]], [#item_custom_name[3]], [#item_custom_name[4]], [#item_custom_name[5]] | Summary: Upcoming surveys are predicted to discover galaxy-scale strong lenses on the order of $10^5$, making deep learning methods necessary in lensing data analysis. Currently, there is insufficient real lensing data to train deep learning algorithms, but the alternative of training […]

Dark Matter Isocurvature from Curvature

Kavli Affiliate: Wayne Hu | First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1]], [#item_custom_name[2]], [#item_custom_name[3]], [#item_custom_name[4]], [#item_custom_name[5]] | Summary: Isocurvature fluctuations, where the relative number density of particle species spatially varies, can be generated from initially adiabatic or curvature fluctuations if the various species fall out of or were never in thermal equilibrium. The freezing of the thermal relic […]

New $μ$ Forces From $ν_μ$ Sources

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Cari Cesarotti, Yonatan Kahn, Gordan Krnjaic, Duncan Rocha, Joshua Spitz | Summary: Accelerator-based experiments reliant on charged pion and kaon decays to produce muon-neutrino beams also deliver an associated powerful flux of muons. Therefore, these experiments can additionally be sensitive to light new particles that preferentially couple […]

Project Dinos I: A joint lensing-dynamics constraint on the deviation from the power law in the mass profile of massive ellipticals

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Frieman | First 5 Authors: Chin Yi Tan, Anowar J. Shajib, Simon Birrer, Alessandro Sonnenfeld, Tommaso Treu | Summary: The mass distribution in massive elliptical galaxies encodes their evolutionary history, thus providing an avenue to constrain the baryonic astrophysics in their evolution. The power-law assumption for the radial mass profile in ellipticals […]
