Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Frieman | First 5 Authors: John Zhang, Joshua Frieman, , , | Summary: We explore a model introduced by Cyr-Racine, Ge, and Knox (arXiv:2107.13000(2)) that resolves the Hubble tension by invoking a “mirror world" dark sector with energy density a fixed fraction of the “ordinary" sector of Lambda-CDM. Although it reconciles cosmic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Isaac Noel, Hanjue Zhu, Nickolay Gnedin, , | Summary: The low-redshift mass-metallicity relation (MZR) is well studied, but the high-redshift MZR remains difficult to observe. To study the early MZR further, we analyze the Cosmic Reionization on Computers (CROC) simulations with a focus on the MZR from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Clarence Chang | First 5 Authors: Timothy Draher, Tomas Polakovic, Juliang Li, Yi Li, Ulrich Welp | Summary: Titanium nitride is a material of interest for many superconducting devices such as nanowire microwave resonators and photon detectors. Thus, controlling the growth of TiN thin films with desirable properties is of high importance. In […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael D. Gladders | First 5 Authors: Ramesh Mainali, Jane R. Rigby, John Chisholm, Matthew Bayliss, Rongmon Bordoloi | Summary: We analyze spectra of a gravitationally lensed galaxy, known as the Sunburst Arc, that is leaking ionizing photons, also known as the Lyman continuum (LyC). Magnification from gravitational lensing permits the galaxy to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Yiqi Xie, Deep Chatterjee, Gilbert Holder, Daniel E. Holz, Scott Perkins | Summary: The distance-inclination degeneracy limits gravitational-wave parameter estimation of compact binary mergers. Although the degeneracy can be partially broken by including higher-order modes or precession, these effects are suppressed in binary neutron stars. In […]
Kavli Affiliate: Richard Kessler | First 5 Authors: Ayan Mitra, Richard Kessler, Surhud More, Renee Hlozek, | Summary: We perform a rigorous cosmology analysis on simulated type Ia supernovae (SN~Ia) and evaluate the improvement from including photometric host-galaxy redshifts compared to using only the "zspec" subset with spectroscopic redshifts from the host or SN. We […]

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Gordan Krnjaic, Duncan Rocha, Anastasia Sokolenko, , | Summary: We study a simple model of vector dark matter that couples to Standard Model particles via magnetic dipole interactions. In this scenario, the cosmological abundance arises through the freeze-in mechanism and depends on the dipole coupling, the vector […]
Kavli Affiliate: Albert Stebbins | First 5 Authors: Zijie Yu, Furen Deng, Shijie Sun, Chenhui Niu, Jixia Li | Summary: The Tianlai Dish Pathfinder array is a radio interferometer array consisting of 16 six meter dish antennas. The original digital backend integration time is at the seconds level, designed for HI intensity mapping experiment. A […]
