Kavli Affiliate: Ralf K. Heilmann | First 5 Authors: P. S. Athiray, Amy R. Winebarger, Patrick Champey, Ken Kobayashi, Sabrina Savage | Summary: The Marshall Grazing Incidence X-ray Spectrometer (MaGIXS) is a sounding rocket experiment that observes the soft X-ray spectrum of the Sun from 6.0 – 24 Angstrom (0.5 – 2.0 keV), successfully launched […]

Kavli Affiliate: J. S. Villasenor | First 5 Authors: Fernando Barbero, Marc Basquens, Valle Varo, Eduardo J. S. Villaseñor, | Summary: The Hamiltonian description of mechanical or field models defined by singular Lagrangians plays a central role in physics. A number of methods are known for this purpose, the most popular of them being the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Samantha D’Alonzo, Max Tegmark, , , | Summary: We present an automated method for measuring media bias. Inferring which newspaper published a given article, based only on the frequencies with which it uses different phrases, leads to a conditional probability distribution whose analysis lets us automatically map […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Herman L. Marshall, Yang Chen, Jeremy J. Drake, Matteo Guainazzi, Vinay L. Kashyap | Summary: We describe a process for cross-calibrating the effective areas of X-ray telescopes that observe common targets. The targets are not assumed to be "standard candles" in the classic sense, in that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edward H. Morgan | First 5 Authors: Samuel H. C. Cabot, Aaron Bello-Arufe, João M. Mendonça, René Tronsgaard, Ian Wong | Summary: We present the discovery of TOI-1518b — an ultra-hot Jupiter orbiting a bright star $V = 8.95$. The transiting planet is confirmed using high-resolution optical transmission spectra from EXPRES. It is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Michael R. R. Good, Eric V Linder, Frank Wilczek, , | Summary: A new solution for an analytic spectrum of particle creation by an accelerating mirror (dynamical Casimir effect) is given. It is the first model to simultaneously radiate thermally and emit a finite number of particles. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Karna A. Morey, Anna-Christina Eilers, Frederick B. Davies, Joseph F. Hennawi, Robert A. Simcoe | Summary: The lifetime of quasars can be estimated by means of their proximity zone sizes, which are regions of enhanced flux bluewards of the Lyman-$alpha$ emission line observed in the rest-frame […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roland K. Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Daniel Huber, Timothy R. White, Travis S. Metcalfe, Ashley Chontos, Michael M. Fausnaugh | Summary: We present an analysis of the first 20-second cadence light curves obtained by the TESS space telescope during its extended mission. We find a precision improvement of 20-second data compared to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Jane S. Greaves, Paul B. Rimmer, Anita M. S. Richards, Janusz J. Petkowski, William Bains | Summary: New analysis is presented of the 1.1 mm wavelength absorption lines in Venus’ atmosphere that suggested the presence of phosphine. We retrieve a sulphur dioxide observation from the JCMT archive […]
