Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Eugene Churazov, Ildar Khabibullin, Thibault Barnouin, Niccolò Bucciantini, Enrico Costa | Summary: We report the discovery of X-ray polarization from the X-ray-bright filament. G0.13-0.11 in the Galactic center (GC) region. This filament features a bright, hard X-ray source that is most plausibly a pulsar wind nebula […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Hemian Yi, Yi-Fan Zhao, Ying-Ting Chan, Jiaqi Cai, Ruobing Mei | Summary: When two different electronic materials are brought together, the resultant interface often shows unexpected quantum phenomena, including interfacial superconductivity and Fu-Kane topological superconductivity (TSC). Here, we use molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) to synthesize heterostructures formed […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Meicun Hou, Lin He, Zhensong Hu, Zhiyuan Li, Christine Jones | Summary: We present a systematic study of the putative hot gas corona around late-type galaxies (LTGs) residing in the Virgo cluster, based on archival Chandra observations. Our sample consists of 21 nearly edge-on galaxies representing a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Allyson Bieryla, George Zhou, Juliana García-Mejía, Tyler R. Farnington, David W. Latham | Summary: We report the discovery of TOI-4641b, a warm Jupiter transiting a rapidly rotating F-type star with a stellar effective temperature of 6560 K. The planet has a radius of 0.73 $R_{Jup}$, a mass […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Simon Petrus, Niall Whiteford, Polychronis Patapis, Beth A. Biller, Andrew Skemer | Summary: The unprecedented medium-resolution (R=1500-3500) near- and mid-infrared (1-18um) spectrum provided by JWST for the young (120-160Myr) low-mass (12-20MJup) L-T transition (L7) companion VHS1256b has opened new avenues for the in-depth characterization of substellar object […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Simon Petrus, Niall Whiteford, Polychronis Patapis, Beth A. Biller, Andrew Skemer | Summary: The unprecedented medium-resolution (R~1500-3500) near- and mid-infrared (1-18um) spectrum provided by JWST for the young (140+/-20Myr) low-mass (12-20MJup) L-T transition (L7) companion VHS1256b gives access to a catalogue of molecular absorptions. In this study, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline N. Hewitt | First 5 Authors: Geoff G. Murphy, Philip Bull, Mario G. Santos, Zara Abdurashidova, Tyrone Adams | Summary: Observations with radio arrays that target the 21-cm signal originating from the early Universe suffer from a variety of systematic effects. An important class of these are reflections and spurious couplings between […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Xiao Li, Cheng Li, H. J. Mo, Jianhong Hu, Jing Wang | Summary: Using data from ALFALFA, xGASS, HI-MaNGA and SDSS, we identify a sample of 47 "red but HI-rich"(RR) galaxies with $NUV-r > 5$ and unusually high HI-to-stellar mass ratios. We compare the optical properties and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Xiao Li, Cheng Li, H. J. Mo, Jianhong Hu, Jing Wang | Summary: Using data from ALFALFA, xGASS, HI-MaNGA and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we identify a sample of 47 "red but HI-rich"(RR) galaxies with $NUV-r > 5$ and unusually high HI-to-stellar mass ratios. We […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Hannah Übler, Roberto Maiolino, Pablo G. Pérez-González, Francesco D’Eugenio, Michele Perna | Summary: A surprising finding of recent studies is the large number of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) associated with moderately massive black holes ($rm log(M_bullet/M_odot)sim 6-8$), in the first billion years after the Big Bang ($z>5$).
