The Kinematic and Chemical Properties of the Close-in Planet Host Star 8 UMi

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Huiling Chen, Yang Huang, Wei Zhu, Timothy C. Beers, Renjing Xie | Summary: A recent study by Hon et al. reported that a close-in planet around the red clump star, 8 UMi, should have been engulfed during the expansion phase of its parent star’s evolution. They explained […]

On the Physical Nature of Ly$α$ Transmission Spikes in High Redshift Quasar Spectra

Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Hanjue Zhu, Nickolay Gnedin, Camille Avestruz, , | Summary: We investigate Lyman-alpha (Ly$alpha$) transmission spikes at $5.2 < z < 6.8$ using synthetic quasar spectra from the “Cosmic Reionization On Computers" simulations. We focus on understanding the relationship between these spikes and the properties of the intergalactic […]

Optically Helicity-Dependent Orbital and Spin Dynamics in Two-Dimensional Ferromagnets

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Shuo Li, Ran Wang, Thomas Frauenheim, Junjie He, | Summary: Disentangling orbital (OAM) and spin (SAM) angular momenta in the ultrafast spin dynamics of two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnets on subfemtoseconds is a challenge in the field of ultrafast magnetism. Herein, we employed non-collinear spin version of real-time time-dependent […]

Inferring the redshift of more than 150 GRBs with a Machine Learning Ensemble model

Kavli Affiliate: Vahe Petrosian | First 5 Authors: Maria Giovanna Dainotti, Elias Taira, Eric Wang, Elias Lehman, Aditya Narendra | Summary: Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), due to their high luminosities are detected up to redshift 10, and thus have the potential to be vital cosmological probes of early processes in the universe. Fulfilling this potential requires […]
