Tidally Heated Sub-Neptunes, Refined Planetary Compositions, and Confirmation of a Third Planet in the TOI-1266 System

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Michael Greklek-McKeon, Shreyas Vissapragada, Heather A. Knutson, Akihiko Fukui, Morgan Saidel | Summary: TOI-1266 is a benchmark system of two temperate ($<$ 450 K) sub-Neptune-sized planets orbiting a nearby M dwarf exhibiting a rare inverted architecture with a larger interior planet. In this study, we characterize transit […]

StreamGen: Connecting Populations of Streams and Shells to Their Host Galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Adriana Dropulic, Nora Shipp, Stacy Kim, Zeineb Mezghanni, Lina Necib | Summary: In this work, we study how the abundance and dynamics of populations of disrupting satellite galaxies change systematically as a function of host galaxy properties. We apply a theoretical model of the phase-mixing process to […]

Revealing the state transition of Cen X-3 at high spectral resolution with Chandra

Kavli Affiliate: Norbert Schulz | First 5 Authors: Graciela Sanjurjo-Ferrín, Jose Miguel Torrejón, Lida Oskinova, Konstantin Postnov, Jose Joaquín Rodes-Roca | Summary: Cen X-3 is a compact, high-mass X-ray binary (HMXRB), likely powered by Roche lobe overflow. We present a phase-resolved X-ray spectral and timing analysis of a target of opportunity textit{Chandra} observation made during […]

A search for persistent radio sources toward repeating fast radio bursts discovered by CHIME/FRB

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Adaeze L. Ibik, Maria R. Drout, Bryan M. Gaensler, Paul Scholz, Navin Sridhar | Summary: The identification of persistent radio sources (PRSs) coincident with two repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) supports FRB theories requiring a compact central engine. However, deep non-detections in other cases highlight the […]

A VLBI Calibrator Grid at 600MHz for Fast Radio Transient Localizations with CHIME/FRB Outriggers

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Shion Andrew, Calvin Leung, Alexander Li, Kiyoshi W. Masui, Bridget C. Andersen | Summary: The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment Fast Radio Burst (CHIME/FRB) Project has a new VLBI Outrigger at the Green Bank Observatory (GBO), which forms a 3300km baseline with CHIME operating at 400-800MHz.
