Assessing the dark matter content of two quasar host galaxies at z~6 through gas kinematics

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Qinyue Fei, John D. Sivlerman, Seiji Fujimoto, Ran Wang, Luis C. Ho | Summary: We conduct a study of the gas kinematics of two quasar host galaxies at $zgtrsim6$ traced by the [CII] emission line using ALMA. By combining deep observations at both low and high resolution, […]

A Quasi-Optimal Stacking Method for Up-the-Ramp Readout Images

Kavli Affiliate: Hu Zhan | First 5 Authors: Guanghuan Wang, Hu Zhan, Zun Luo, Chengqi Liu, Youhua Xu | Summary: The non-destructive readout mode of a detector allows its pixels to be read multiple times during integration, generating a series of "up-the-ramp" images that keep accumulating photons between successive frames. Since the noise is correlated […]

The putative center in NGC 1052

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Anne-Kathrin Baczko, Matthias Kadler, Eduardo Ros, Christian M. Fromm, Maciek Wielgus | Summary: Many active galaxies harbor powerful relativistic jets, however, the detailed mechanisms of their formation and acceleration remain poorly understood. To investigate the area of jet acceleration and collimation with the highest available angular […]

Topologically protected edge states in time photonic crystals with chiral symmetry

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Yukun Yang, Hao Hu, Liangliang Liu, Yihao Yang, Youxiu Yu | Summary: Time photonic crystals are media in which their electromagnetic parameters are modulated periodically in time, showing promising applications in non-resonant lasers and particle accelerators, among others. Traditionally utilized to study space photonic crystals, topological band […]

Deep inference of simulated strong lenses in ground-based surveys

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Frieman | First 5 Authors: Jason Poh, Ashwin Samudre, Aleksandra Ćiprijanović, Joshua Frieman, Gourav Khullar | Summary: The large number of strong lenses discoverable in future astronomical surveys will likely enhance the value of strong gravitational lensing as a cosmic probe of dark energy and dark matter. However, leveraging the increased statistical […]
