Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Tri Nguyen, Siddharth Mishra-Sharma, Reuel Williams, Lina Necib, | Summary: Dwarf galaxies are small, dark matter-dominated galaxies, some of which are embedded within the Milky Way. Their lack of baryonic matter (e.g., stars and gas) makes them perfect test beds for probing the properties of dark matter […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Tara Fetherolf, Joshua Pepper, Emilie Simpson, Stephen R. Kane, Teo Mocnik | Summary: During its 2-year Prime Mission, TESS observed over 232,000 stars at a 2-min cadence across ~70% of the sky. These data provide a record of photometric variability across a range of astrophysically interesting time […]

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Alexis Heitzmann, George Zhou, Samuel N. Quinn, Chelsea X. Huang, Jiayin Dong | Summary: We report the discovery of TOI-4562 b (TIC-349576261), a Jovian planet orbiting a young F7V-type star, younger than the Praesepe/Hyades clusters ($sim$ 300-400 Myr). This planet stands out because of its unusually long […]

Huang, Jiayin Dong | Summary: We report the discovery of TOI-4562 b (TIC-349576261), a Jovian planet orbiting a young F7V-type star, younger than the Praesepe/Hyades clusters (< $700$ Myr). This planet stands out because of its unusually […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael A. McDonald | First 5 Authors: Hannah Zohren, Tim Schrabback, Sebastian Bocquet, Martin Sommer, Fatimah Raihan | Summary: We present a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) weak gravitational lensing study of nine distant and massive galaxy clusters with redshifts $1.0 lesssim z lesssim 1.7$ ($z_mathrm{median} = 1.4$) and Sunyaev Zel’dovich (SZ) detection significance […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Derek Shank, Timothy C. Beers, Vinicius M. Placco, Dmitrii Gudin, Thomas Catapano | Summary: Orbital characteristics based on Gaia Early Data Release 3 astrometric parameters are analyzed for ${sim} 1700$ $r$-process-enhanced (RPE; [Eu/Fe] $> +0.3$) metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] $leq -0.8$) compiled from the $R$-Process Alliance, the GALactic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | First 5 Authors: Christopher Hilweg, Danial Shadmany, Philip Walther, Nergis Mavalvala, Vivishek Sudhir | Summary: Today’s most precise optical instruments — gravitational-wave interferometers and optical atomic clocks — rely on long storage times for photons to realize their exquisite sensitivity. Optical fiber technology is the most widely deployed platform for […]
