Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Michelle L. Hill, Stephen R. Kane, Paul A. Dalba, Mason MacDougall, Tara Fetherolf | Summary: The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) continues to dramatically increase the number of known transiting exoplanets, and is optimal for monitoring bright stars amenable to radial velocity (RV) and atmospheric follow-up […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Yashvi Sharma, Jesper Sollerman, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni, Takashi J. Moriya, Steve Schulze | Summary: Multi-peaked supernovae with precursors, dramatic light-curve rebrightenings, and spectral transformation are rare, but are being discovered in increasing numbers by modern night-sky transient surveys like the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). Here, we present […]

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Fei Xie, Josephine Wong, Fabio La Monaca, Roger W. Romani, Jeremy Heyl | Summary: We report on X-ray polarization measurements of the extra-galactic Crab-like PSR B0540-69 and its Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), using a ~850 ks Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Charlie Mace, Zhichao Carton Zeng, Annika H. G. Peter, Xiaolong Du, Shengqi Yang | Summary: Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) theory predicts that dark matter halos experience core-collapse, a process where the halo’s inner region rapidly increases in density and decreases in size. The N-body simulations used to […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael McDonald | First 5 Authors: Cian Roche, Michael McDonald, Josh Borrow, Mark Vogelsberger, Xuejian Shen | Summary: The distribution of offsets between the brightest cluster galaxies of galaxy clusters and the centroid of their dark matter distributions is a promising probe of the underlying dark matter physics. In particular, since this distribution […]
