Kavli Affiliate: Brian D. Nord | First 5 Authors: Apriel K Hodari, Shayna B Krammes, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, Brian D Nord, Jessica N Esquivel | Summary: The purpose of this white paper is to describe how unfair power dynamics related to various aspects of identity — race, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, and ability status […]
Kavli Affiliate: Brian D. Nord | First 5 Authors: Apriel K Hodari, Shayna B Krammes, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, Brian D Nord, Jessica N Esquivel | Summary: The purpose of this white paper is to lay out the impacts of policing and gatekeeping in STEM, illustrated with lived experiences of scientists of color who are achieving despite […]
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, […]
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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Marcela Carena | First 5 Authors: Marcela Carena, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Zhen Liu, Tong Ou, Michael J. Ramsey-Musolf | Summary: An essential goal of the Higgs physics program at the LHC and beyond is to explore the nature of the Higgs potential and shed light on the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking. An important […]
