Searching for GEMS: Characterizing Six Giant Planets around Cool Dwarfs

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Shubham Kanodia, Arvind F. Gupta, Caleb I. Canas, Lia Marta Bernabo, Varghese Reji | Summary: Transiting giant exoplanets around M-dwarf stars (GEMS) are rare, owing to the low-mass host stars. However, the all-sky coverage of TESS has enabled the detection of an increasingly large number of them […]

The Ultraviolet Slopes of Early Universe Galaxies: The Impact of Bursty Star Formation, Dust, and Nebular Continuum Emission

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Desika Narayanan, Daniel P. Stark, Steven L. Finkelstein, Paul Torrey, Qi Li | Summary: JWST has enabled the detection of the UV continuum of galaxies at z>10, evidencing a population of extremely blue, potentially dust-free galaxies. Interpreting the UV spectra of galaxies as they redden is complicated […]

Contemporaneous X-ray Observations of 30 Bright Radio Bursts from the Prolific Fast Radio Burst Source FRB 20220912A

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Amanda M. Cook, Paul Scholz, Aaron B. Pearlman, Thomas C. Abbott, Marilyn Cruces | Summary: We present an extensive contemporaneous X-ray and radio campaign performed on the repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20220912A for eight weeks immediately following the source’s detection by CHIME/FRB. This […]

Concept of a Double Tilted Rowland Spectrograph for X-rays

Kavli Affiliate: Ralf K. Heilmann | First 5 Authors: Hans Moritz Günther, Casey T. DeRoo, Ralf K. Heilmann, Edward Hertz, | Summary: High-resolution spectroscopy in soft X-rays ($<2$ keV) requires diffractive elements to resolve any astrophysically relevant diagnostics, such as closely spaced lines, weak absorption lines, or line profiles. The Rowland torus geometry describes how […]

AI-Driven Review Systems: Evaluating LLMs in Scalable and Bias-Aware Academic Reviews

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Keith Tyser, Ben Segev, Gaston Longhitano, Xin-Yu Zhang, Zachary Meeks | Summary: Automatic reviewing helps handle a large volume of papers, provides early feedback and quality control, reduces bias, and allows the analysis of trends. We evaluate the alignment of automatic paper reviews with human reviews using […]
