Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Alvin J. K. Chua, Michael L. Katz, Niels Warburton, Scott A. Hughes, | Summary: The future space mission LISA will observe a wealth of gravitational-wave sources at millihertz frequencies. Of these, the extreme-mass-ratio inspirals of compact objects into massive black holes are the only sources that […]
Kavli Affiliate: J. S. Villasenor | First 5 Authors: Juan Margalef-Bentabol, Eduardo J. S. Villaseñor, , , | Summary: We analyze in full-detail the geometric structure of the covariant phase space (CPS) of any local field theory defined over a space-time with boundary. To this end, we introduce a new frame: the "relative bicomplex framework". […]
Kavli Affiliate: Moritz Guenther | First 5 Authors: Michihiro Takami, Tracy L. Beck, P. Christian Schneider, Hans Moritz Guenther, Marc White | Summary: For the active T-Taur star RW Aur A we have performed long-term (~10 yr) monitoring observations of (1) jet imaging in the [Fe II] 1.644-micron emission line using Gemini-NIFS and VLT-SINFONI; (2) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael M. Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Wenlong Yuan, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Samantha L. Hoffmann, Lucas M. Macri, Bradley M. Peterson | Summary: We derive a distance of $15.8pm0.4$ Mpc to the archetypical Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 based on the near-infrared Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation and new Hubble Space Telescope multiband imaging. This […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric D. Miller | First 5 Authors: Hitomi Suzuki, Hiroya Yamaguchi, Manabu Ishida, Hiroyuki Uchida, Paul P. Plucinsky | Summary: We present XMM-Newton observations of N132D, the X-ray brightest supernova remnant (SNR) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), using the Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS) that enables high-resolution spectroscopy in the soft X-ray band. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Salvatore Vitale, Davide Gerosa, Will M. Farr, Stephen R. Taylor, | Summary: Shortly after a new class of objects is discovered, the attention shifts from the properties of the individual sources to the question of their origin: do all sources come from the same underlying population, or […]
Kavli Affiliate: David A. Principe | First 5 Authors: Antonio S. Hales, Sebastián Pérez, Camilo Gonzalez-Ruilova, Lucas A. Cieza, Jonathan P. Williams | Summary: We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) 1.3 mm observations of four young, eruptive star-disk systems at 0.4" resolution: two FUors (V582 Aur and V900 Mon), one EXor (UZ Tau E) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul L. Schechter | First 5 Authors: Anton T. Jaelani, Cristian E. Rusu, Issha Kayo, Anupreeta More, Alessandro Sonnenfeld | Summary: We present spectroscopic confirmation of three new two-image gravitationally lensed quasars, compiled from existing strong lens and X-ray catalogs. Images of HSC J091843.27$-$022007.5 show a red galaxy with two blue point sources […]
Kavli Affiliate: David A. Principe | First 5 Authors: Alice Zurlo, Lucas A. Cieza, Sebastián Pérez, Valentin Christiaens, Jonathan P. Williams | Summary: We present Adaptive Optics (AO) near infrared (NIR) observations using VLT/NACO and Keck/NIRC2 of ODISEA targets. ODISEA is an ALMA survey of the entire population of circumstellar discs in the Ophiuchus molecular […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gabor Furesz | First 5 Authors: Ismael Mireles, Avi Shporer, Nolan Grieves, George Zhou, Maximilian N. Günther | Summary: We report the discovery of TOI 694 b and TIC 220568520 b, two low-mass stellar companions in eccentric orbits around metal-rich Sun-like stars, first detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). TOI 694 […]
