Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Dylan Folsom, Carlos Blanco, Mariangela Lisanti, Lina Necib, Mark Vogelsberger | Summary: The sensitivity of direct detection experiments depends on the phase-space distribution of dark matter near the Sun, which can be modeled theoretically using cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of Milky Way-like galaxies. However, capturing the halo-to-halo variation […]

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: XRISM Collaboration, XRISM Collaboration, , , | Summary: We report a detailed spectroscopic study of the gas dynamics and hydrostatic mass bias of the galaxy cluster Abell 2029, utilizing high-resolution observations from XRISM Resolve. Abell 2029, known for its cool core and relaxed X-ray morphology, provides an […]

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Andrew Vanderburg, Andrew W. Boyle, Ana Isabel Lopez Murillo | Summary: Young (<500 Myr) multi-planet transiting systems are valuable environments for understanding planet evolution by offering an opportunity to make direct comparisons between planets from the same formation conditions. TOI-2076 is […]

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Mariona Badenas-Agusti, Siyi Xu, Andrew Vanderburg, Kishalay De, Patrick Dufour | Summary: We present the first application of the Machine Learning (ML) pipeline $texttt{cecilia}$ to determine the physical parameters and photospheric composition of five metal-polluted He-atmosphere white dwarfs without well-characterised elemental abundances. To achieve this, we perform […]

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Micah Oeur, Sarah R. Loebman, Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Arpit Arora, Lina Necib | Summary: Orbital Torus Imaging (OTI) is a dynamical inference method for determining the Milky Way’s gravitational potential using stellar survey data. OTI uses gradients in stellar astrophysical quantities, such as element abundances, as functions […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Zihao Wang, Xuejian Shen, Mark Vogelsberger, Hui Li, Rahul Kannan | Summary: Star formation in galaxies is inherently complex, involving the interplay of physical processes over a hierarchy of spatial scales. In this work, we investigate the connection between global (galaxy-scale) and local (cloud-scale) star formation efficiencies […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Tyler R. Fairnington, Jiayin Dong, Chelsea X. Huang, Emma Nabbie, George Zhou | Summary: We present the eccentricity distribution of warm sub-Saturns (4-8 Re, 8-200 day periods) as derived from an analysis of transit light curves from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission. We use the […]
