Kavli Affiliate: Joshua A. Frieman | First 5 Authors: Jason Poh, Ashwin Samudre, Aleksandra Ćiprijanović, Brian Nord, Gourav Khullar | Summary: Current ground-based cosmological surveys, such as the Dark Energy Survey (DES), are predicted to discover thousands of galaxy-scale strong lenses, while future surveys, such as the Vera Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and […]

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 […]
