Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Thomas G. Wilson, Elisa Goffo, Yann Alibert, Davide Gandolfi, Andrea Bonfanti | Summary: We report the discovery and characterisation of a pair of sub-Neptunes transiting the bright K-dwarf TOI-1064 (TIC 79748331), initially detected in TESS photometry. To characterise the system, we performed and retrieved CHEOPS, TESS, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Emily Moser, Nicholas Battaglia, Daisuke Nagai, Erwin Lau, Luis Fernando Machado Poletti Valle | Summary: The cycle of baryons through the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is important to understand in the context of galaxy formation and evolution. In this study we forecast constraints on the feedback processes heating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew M. Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Munazza K. Alam, James Kirk, Courtney D. Dressing, Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Kazumasa Ohno | Summary: We present a near-infrared transmission spectrum of the long period (P=542 days), temperate ($T_{eq}$=294 K) giant planet HIP 41378 f obtained with the Wide-Field Camera 3 (WFC3) instrument aboard the Hubble Space […]
Kavli Affiliate: Saul A. Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Gerald Handler, Rahul Jayaraman, Donald W. Kurtz, Jim Fuller, Saul A. Rappaport | Summary: The tidally tilted pulsators are a new type of oscillating star in close binary systems that have their pulsation axis in the orbital plane because of the tidal distortion caused by their […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Leander Thiele, Digvijay Wadekar, J. Colin Hill, Nicholas Battaglia, Jens Chluba | Summary: High-significance measurements of the monopole thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich CMB spectral distortions have the potential to tightly constrain poorly understood baryonic feedback processes. The sky-averaged Compton-y distortion and its relativistic correction are measures of the total […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Vijay Varma, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Tousif Islam, Feroz H. Shaik, Carl-Johan Haster | Summary: The final black hole left behind after a binary black hole merger can attain a recoil velocity, or a "kick", reaching values up to 5000 km/s. This phenomenon has important implications for gravitational wave […]
Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Iddo Drori, Sunny Tran, Roman Wang, Newman Cheng, Kevin Liu | Summary: We demonstrate that a neural network pre-trained on text and fine-tuned on code solves Mathematics problems by program synthesis. We turn questions into programming tasks, automatically generate programs, and then execute them, perfectly solving university-level […]
Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Iddo Drori, Sarah Zhang, Reece Shuttleworth, Leonard Tang, Albert Lu | Summary: We demonstrate that a neural network pre-trained on text and fine-tuned on code solves mathematics course problems, explains solutions, and generates new questions at a human level. We automatically synthesize programs using few-shot learning and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Mohammed El Mufti, Peter P. Plavchan, Howard Isaacson, Bryson L. Cale, Dax L. Feliz | Summary: We validate the presence of a two-planet system orbiting the 0.2–1.4 Gyr K4 dwarf TOI 560 (HD 73583). The system consists of an inner moderately eccentric transiting mini-Neptune (TOI 560 b, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rainer Weiss | First 5 Authors: D. H. Shoemaker, Stefan Ballmer, Matteo Barsuglia, E. Berger, Emanuele Berti | Summary: The workshop Dawn VI: Next Generation Observatories took place online over three days, 5-7 October, 2021. More than 200 physicists and astronomers attended to contribute to, and learn from, a discussion of next-generation ground-based […]
