Further Development of Event-Based Analysis of X-ray Polarization Data

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Herman L. Marshall, , , , | Summary: An event-based maximum likelihood method for handling X-ray polarimetry data is extended to include the effects of background and nonuniform sampling of the possible position angle space. While nonuniform sampling in position angle space generally introduces cross terms […]

Understanding Shape and Centroid Deviations in 39 Strong Lensing Galaxy Clusters in Various Dynamical States

Kavli Affiliate: Michael McDonald | First 5 Authors: Raven Gassis, Matthew B. Bayliss, Keren Sharon, Guillaume Mahler, Michael D. Gladders | Summary: Through observational tests of strong lensing galaxy clusters, we can test simulation derived structure predictions that follow from $Lambda$ Cold Dark Matter ($Lambda$CDM) cosmology. The shape and centroid deviations between the total matter […]

Comprehensive Bayesian analysis of FRB-like bursts from SGR 1935+2154 observed by CHIME/FRB

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Utkarsh Giri, Bridget C. Andersen, Pragya Chawla, Alice P. Curtin, Emmanuel Fonseca | Summary: The bright millisecond-duration radio burst from the Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154 in 2020 April was a landmark event, demonstrating that at least some fast radio burst (FRB) sources could be magnetars. The […]

A roadmap to the efficient and robust characterization of temperate terrestrial planet atmospheres with JWST

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: TRAPPIST-1 JWST Community Initiative, :, Julien de Wit, René Doyon, Benjamin V. Rackham | Summary: Ultra-cool dwarf stars are abundant, long-lived, and uniquely suited to enable the atmospheric study of transiting terrestrial companions with JWST. Amongst them, the most prominent is the M8.5V star TRAPPIST-1 and its […]
