Testing EMRI models for Quasi-Periodic Eruptions with 3.5 years of monitoring eRO-QPE1

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Joheen Chakraborty, Riccardo Arcodia, Erin Kara, Giovanni Miniutti, Margherita Giustini | Summary: Quasi-Periodic Eruptions (QPEs) are luminous X-ray outbursts recurring on hour timescales, observed from the nuclei of a growing handful of nearby low-mass galaxies. Their physical origin is still debated, and usually modeled as (a) accretion […]

Constraining neutrino-DM interactions with Milky Way dwarf spheroidals and supernova neutrinos

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Sean Heston, Shunsaku Horiuchi, Satoshi Shirai, , | Summary: We constrain the neutrino-dark matter cross section using properties of the dark matter density profiles of Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies. The constraint arises from core-collapse supernova neutrinos scattering on dark matter as a form of energy injection, […]

The THESAN project: galaxy sizes during the epoch of reionization

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Xuejian Shen, Mark Vogelsberger, Josh Borrow, Yongao Hu, Evan Erickson | Summary: We investigate galaxy sizes at redshift $zgtrsim 6$ with the cosmological radiation-magneto-hydrodynamic simulation suite THESAN(-HR). These simulations simultaneously capture the reionization of the large-scale intergalactic medium and resolved galaxy properties. The intrinsic size ($r^{ast}_{1/2}$) of […]

A demonstration of the effect of fringe-rate filtering in the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array delay power spectrum pipeline

Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline N. Hewitt | First 5 Authors: Hugh Garsden, Philip Bull, Mike Wilensky, Zuhra Abdurashidova, Tyrone Adams | Summary: Radio interferometers targeting the 21cm brightness temperature fluctuations at high redshift are subject to systematic effects that operate over a range of different timescales. These can be isolated by designing appropriate Fourier filters that […]

Evidence for flare-accelerated particles in large scale loops in the behind-the-limb gamma-ray solar flare of September 29, 2022

Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: Melissa Pesce-Rollins, Karl-Ludwig Klein, Säm Krucker, Alexander Warmuth, M. Astrid Veronig | Summary: We report on the detection of the gamma-ray emission above 100 MeV from the solar flare of September 29, 2022, by Fermi LAT with simultaneous coverage in HXR by Solar Orbiter STIX. The Solar […]

High-cadence Timing of Binary Pulsars with CHIME

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Chia Min Tan, Emmanuel Fonseca, Kathryn Crowter, Fengqiu Adam Dong, Victoria M. Kaspi | Summary: We performed near-daily observations on the binary pulsars PSR J0218+4232, PSR J1518+4904 and PSR J2023+2853 with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME). For the first time, we detected the Shapiro […]

How the Galaxy-Halo Connection Depends on Large-Scale Environment

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: John F. Wu, Christian Kragh Jespersen, Risa H. Wechsler, , | Summary: We investigate the connection between galaxies, dark matter halos, and their large-scale environments with Illustris TNG300 hydrodynamic simulation data. We predict stellar masses from subhalo properties to test two types of machine learning (ML) […]
