A gravitational wave detectable candidate Type Ia supernova progenitor

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Emma T. Chickles, Kevin B. Burdge, Joheen Chakraborty, Vik S. Dhillon, Paul Draghis | Summary: Type Ia supernovae, critical for studying cosmic expansion, arise from thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs, but their precise progenitor pathways remain unclear. Growing evidence supports the “double-degenerate” scenario, where two white […]

Signatures of black hole seeding in the local Universe: Predictions from the BRAHMA cosmological simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Aklant K Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey, Rachel S Somerville, Luke Zoltan Kelley | Summary: The first "seeds" of supermassive black holes (BHs) continue to be an outstanding puzzle, and it is currently unclear whether the imprints of early seed formation survive today. Here we examine the […]

A Trade-Off Between Path Entanglement and Quantum Sensitivity

Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | First 5 Authors: Benjamin Lou, Hudson A. Loughlin, Nergis Mavalvala, , | Summary: Entanglement often increases quantum measurement schemes’ sensitivity. However, we find that in precision measurements with zero-mean Gaussian states, such as squeezed states, entanglement between different paths degrades measurement sensitivity. We prove an inverse relationship between entanglement entropy […]
