Informal Socialization in Physics Training

Kavli Affiliate: Brian D. Nord | First 5 Authors: Apriel K Hodari, Shayna B Krammes, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, Brian D Nord, Jessica N Esquivel | Summary: This paper addresses issues related to the process of informal socialization into physics, particularly for senior graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. Many physicists’ careers are built on the relationships they […]

Near-Zone Symmetries of Kerr Black Holes

Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | First 5 Authors: Lam Hui, Austin Joyce, Riccardo Penco, Luca Santoni, Adam R. Solomon | Summary: We study the near-zone symmetries of a massless scalar field on four-dimensional black hole backgrounds. We provide a geometric understanding that unifies various recently discovered symmetries as part of an SO(4,2) group. Of these, […]

Discovering the building blocks of dark matter halo density profiles with neural networks

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: Luisa Lucie-Smith, Hiranya V. Peiris, Andrew Pontzen, Brian Nord, Jeyan Thiyagalingam | Summary: The density profiles of dark matter halos are typically modeled using empirical formulae fitted to the density profiles of relaxed halo populations. We present a neural network model that is trained to learn the […]

Cosmo-Paleontology: Statistics of Fossil Groups in a Gravity-Only Simulation

Kavli Affiliate: Salman Habib | First 5 Authors: Aurora Cossairt, Michael Buehlmann, Eve Kovacs, Xin Liu, Salman Habib | Summary: We present a detailed study of fossil group candidates identified in "Last Journey", a gravity-only cosmological simulation covering a $(3.4, h^{-1}mathrm{Gpc})^3$ volume with a particle mass resolution of $m_p approx 2.7 times 10^9, h^{-1}mathrm{M}_odot$. The […]

Learning Representation for Bayesian Optimization with Collision-free Regularization

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: Fengxue Zhang, Brian Nord, Yuxin Chen, , | Summary: Bayesian optimization has been challenged by datasets with large-scale, high-dimensional, and non-stationary characteristics, which are common in real-world scenarios. Recent works attempt to handle such input by applying neural networks ahead of the classical Gaussian process to learn […]

Portability: A Necessary Approach for Future Scientific Software

Kavli Affiliate: Salman Habib | First 5 Authors: Meghna Bhattacharya, Paolo Calafiura, Taylor Childers, Mark Dewing, Zhihua Dong | Summary: Today’s world of scientific software for High Energy Physics (HEP) is powered by x86 code, while the future will be much more reliant on accelerators like GPUs and FPGAs. The portable parallelization strategies (PPS) project […]
