Dynamics of low-mass black hole seeds in the BRAHMA simulations using subgrid-dynamical friction: Impact on merger-driven black hole growth in the high redshift Universe

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Luke Z. Kelley, Aneesh Sivasankaran, Paul Torrey | Summary: We analyze the dynamics of low-mass black hole (BH) seeds in the high-redshift ($zgtrsim5$) Universe using a suite of $[4.5~mathrm{Mpc}]^3$ and $[9~mathrm{Mpc}]^3$ BRAHMA cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. The simulations form seeds with mass $M_{mathrm{seed}}=2.2times10^3~M_{odot}$ […]

Mitigating antenna gain errors with HyFoReS in CHIME simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Haochen Wang, Panupong Phoompuang, Kiyoshi W. Masui, Arnab Chakraborty, Simon Foreman | Summary: Hybrid Foreground Residual Subtraction (HyFoReS) is a new family of algorithms designed to remove systematics-induced foreground contamination for 21-cm intensity mapping data. Previously, the algorithm was shown to be effective in mitigating beam […]

Measurement of the Dispersion$unicode{x2013}$Galaxy Cross-Power Spectrum with the Second CHIME/FRB Catalog

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi Masui | First 5 Authors: Haochen Wang, Kiyoshi Masui, Shion Andrew, Emmanuel Fonseca, B. M. Gaensler | Summary: The dispersion of extragalactic fast radio bursts (FRBs) can serve as a powerful probe of the diffuse plasma between and surrounding galaxies, which contains most of the Universe’s baryons. By cross-correlating the dispersion of […]

A transiting giant planet in orbit around a 0.2-solar-mass host star

Kavli Affiliate: Alan M. Levine | First 5 Authors: Edward M. Bryant, Andrés Jordán, Joel D. Hartman, Daniel Bayliss, Elyar Sedaghati | Summary: Planet formation models suggest that the formation of giant planets is significantly harder around low-mass stars, due to the scaling of protoplanetary disc masses with stellar mass. The discovery of giant planets […]

Multi-band, Multi-epoch Photometry of the Spot-crossing System TOI-3884: Refined System Geometry and Spot Properties

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Mayuko Mori, Akihiko Fukui, Teruyuki Hirano, Norio Narita, John H. Livingston | Summary: Spot-crossing transits offer a unique opportunity to probe spot properties such as temperature, size, and surface distribution. TOI-3884 is a rare system in which spot-crossing features are persistently observed during every transit. This is […]
