A unified accretion disc model for supermassive black holes in galaxy formation simulations: method and implementation

Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Sophie Koudmani, Rachel S. Somerville, Debora Sijacki, Martin A. Bourne, Yan-Fei Jiang | Summary: It is well established that supermassive black hole (SMBH) feedback is crucial for regulating the evolution of massive, if not all, galaxies. However, modelling the interplay between SMBHs and their host galaxies is […]

DEATHSTAR: A system for confirming planets and identifying false positive signals in TESS data using ground-based time domain surveys

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Gabrielle Ross, Andrew Vanderburg, Zoë L. de Beurs, Karen A. Collins, Rob J. Siverd | Summary: We present a technique for verifying or refuting exoplanet candidates from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission by searching for nearby eclipsing binary stars using higher-resolution archival images from ground-based […]

Precise Estimate of Charged Higgsino/Wino Decay Rate

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Masahiro Ibe, Yuhei Nakayama, Satoshi Shirai, , | Summary: Higgsinos and Winos in the supersymmetric Standard Model are prime candidates for dark matter due to their weakly interacting nature. The mass differences between their charged components (charginos) and neutral components (neutralinos) become degenerate when other superparticles are […]

Dynamical friction in self-interacting ultralight dark matter

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Noah Glennon, Nathan Musoke, Ethan O. Nadler, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, Risa H. Wechsler | Summary: We explore how dynamical friction in an ultralight dark matter (ULDM) background is affected by dark matter self-interactions. We calculate the force of dynamical friction on a point mass moving through a […]
