The structure of magnetic turbulence in the heliosheath region observed by Voyager 2 at 106 AU

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Richardson | First 5 Authors: Federico Fraternale, Nikolai V Pogorelov, John D Richardson, Daniela Tordella, | Summary: It is currently believed that the turbulent fluctuations pervade the outermost heliosphere. Turbulence, magnetic reconnection, and their link may be responsible for magnetic energy conversion in these regions. The governing mechanisms of such anisotropic […]

Magnetic turbulence spectra and intermittency in the heliosheath and in the local interstellar medium

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Richardson | First 5 Authors: Federico Fraternale, Nikolai V Pogorelov, John D Richardson, Daniela Tordella, | Summary: The understanding of inertial-scale dynamics in the heliosheath is not yet thorough. Magnetic field fluctuations across the inner heliosheath (IHS) and the local interstellar medium (LISM) are here considered to provide accurate and highly […]

Tomography of the Cosmic Dawn and Reionization Eras with Multiple Tracers

Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline Hewitt | First 5 Authors: Tzu-Ching Chang, Angus Beane, Olivier Dore, Adam Lidz, Lluis Mas-Ribas | Summary: The Cosmic Dawn and Reionization epochs remain a fundamental but challenging frontier of astrophysics and cosmology. We advocate a large-scale, multi-tracer approach to develop a comprehensive understanding of the physics that led to the formation […]

The Dynamic Infrared Sky

Kavli Affiliate: Rob Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Mansi M. Kasliwal, Scott Adams, Igor Andreoni, Michael Ashley, Nadia Blagorodnova | Summary: Opening up the dynamic infrared sky for systematic time-domain exploration would yield many scientific advances. Multi-messenger pursuits such as localizing gravitational waves from neutron star mergers and quantifying the nucleosynthetic yields require the infrared. […]

Cosmology with the Highly Redshifted 21cm Line

Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline Hewitt | First 5 Authors: Adrian Liu, James Aguirre, Yacine Ali-Haimoud, Marcelo Alvarez, Adam Beardsley | Summary: In addition to being a probe of Cosmic Dawn and Epoch of Reionization astrophysics, the 21cm line at $z>6$ is also a powerful way to constrain cosmology. Its power derives from several unique capabilities. First, […]

The Transiting Multi-planet System HD15337: Two Nearly Equal-mass Planets Straddling the Radius Gap

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Goeke | First 5 Authors: Davide Gandolfi, Luca Fossati, John H. Livingston, Keivan G. Stassun, Sascha Grziwa | Summary: We report the discovery of a super-Earth and a sub-Neptune transiting the star HD 15337 (TOI-402, TIC 120896927), a bright (V=9) K1 dwarf observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) in Sectors […]
