Kavli Affiliate: Bradford A. Benson | First 5 Authors: Frank J. Qu, Fei Ge, W. L. Kimmy Wu, Irene Abril-Cabezas, Mathew S. Madhavacheril | Summary: We present the tightest cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing constraints to date on the growth of structure by combining CMB lensing measurements from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT), the South […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Cailin Plunkett, Matthew Mould, Salvatore Vitale, , | Summary: Next-generation gravitational-wave observatories will reach farther into the universe than currently possible, revealing black-hole mergers from early stellar binary systems such as Population III stars, whose properties are currently poorly constrained. We develop a method to infer the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Joshua Engels, David D. Baek, Subhash Kantamneni, Max Tegmark, | Summary: Scalable oversight, the process by which weaker AI systems supervise stronger ones, has been proposed as a key strategy to control future superintelligent systems. However, it is still unclear how scalable oversight itself scales. To address […]

Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Eun-jin Shin, Debora Sijacki, Matthew C. Smith, Martin A. Bourne, Sophie Koudmani | Summary: While mounting observational evidence suggests that intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) may be important in shaping the properties of dwarf galaxies both at high redshifts and in the local Universe, our theoretical understanding […]
Kavli Affiliate: Marcela Carena | First 5 Authors: Marcela Carena, Aurora Ireland, Tong Ou, Isaac R. Wang, | Summary: A precise determination of the bubble wall velocity $v_w$ is crucial for making accurate predictions of the baryon asymmetry and gravitational wave (GW) signals in models of electroweak baryogenesis (EWBG). Working in the local thermal equilibrium […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Sperhake | First 5 Authors: Gareth Arturo Marks, Seppe J. Staelens, Tamara Evstafyeva, Ulrich Sperhake, | Summary: We study the stability of ultracompact boson stars admitting light rings combining a perturbative analysis with 3+1 numerical-relativity simulations with and without symmetry assumptions. We observe excellent agreement between all perturbative and numerical results which […]
