Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Joshua S. Dillon, Max Lee, Zaki S. Ali, Aaron R. Parsons, Naomi Orosz | Summary: In 21 cm cosmology, precision calibration is key to the separation of the neutral hydrogen signal from very bright but spectrally-smooth astrophysical foregrounds. The Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA), an interferometer […]
Kavli Affiliate: David P. Huenemoerder | First 5 Authors: David P. Huenemoerder, Richard Ignace, Nathan A. Miller, Kenneth G. Gayley, Wolf-Rainer Hamann | Summary: We have obtained a very deep exposure (813 ks) of $zeta,$Puppis (O4 supergiant) with the Chandra/HETG Spectrometer. Here we report on analysis of the 1-9 r{A} region, especially well suited for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Richard Mittleman | First 5 Authors: Michael P. Ross, Krishna Venkateswara, Conor Mow-Lowry, Sam Cooper, Jim Warner | Summary: Modern gravitational-wave observatories require robust low-frequency active seismic isolation in order to keep the interferometer at its ideal operating conditions. Seismometers are used to measure both the motion of the ground and isolated platform. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert F. Goeke | First 5 Authors: Ian Wong, Avi Shporer, Tansu Daylan, Björn Benneke, Tara Fetherolf | Summary: We present a systematic phase curve analysis of known transiting systems observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) during year one of the primary mission. Using theoretical predictions for the amplitude of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj Pasham | First 5 Authors: Shuo Zhang, Zhenlin Zhu, Hui Li, Dheeraj Pasham, Zhiyuan Li | Summary: One of the most unique phenomena in the Galactic center region is the existence of numerous long and narrow filamentary structures within a few hundred parsecs of Sgr A$^{star}$. While more than one than one […]

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Principe | First 5 Authors: Anastasiia V Uvarova, Hans Moritz Günther, David A. Principe, P. Christian Schneider, | Summary: Young stars accrete mass and angular momentum from their circumstellar disks. Some of them also drive outflows, which can be distinguished in optical forbidden emission lines (FELs). We analyze a sample of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Christopher Burke | First 5 Authors: Ryan Cloutier, Jason D. Eastman, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Nicola Astudillo-Defru, Xavier Bonfils | Summary: We present the confirmation of two new planets transiting the nearby mid-M dwarf LTT 3780 (TIC 36724087, TOI-732, $V=13.07$, $K_s=8.204$, $R_s$=0.374 R$_{odot}$, $M_s$=0.401 M$_{odot}$, d=22 pc). The two planet candidates are identified in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Jeroen Homan, Joe Bright, Sara E. Motta, Diego Altamirano, Zaven Arzoumanian | Summary: We present Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer X-ray and Arcminute Microkelvin Imager Large Array radio observations of a rapid hard-to-soft state transition in the black hole X-ray transient MAXI J1820+070. During the transition […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Christoph Engler, Annalisa Pillepich, Gandhali D. Joshi, Dylan Nelson, Anna Pasquali | Summary: We study the stellar-to-halo mass relation (SHMR) for central and satellite galaxies with total dynamical masses above 10^10.5 Msun using the suite of cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical simulations IllustrisTNG. In particular, we quantify environmental effects on […]
