Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Samuel Gill, Daniel Bayliss, Solène Ulmer-Moll, Peter J. Wheatley, Rafael Brahm | Summary: Discovering transiting exoplanets with relatively long orbital periods ($>$10 days) is crucial to facilitate the study of cool exoplanet atmospheres ($T_{rm eq} < 700 K$) and to understand exoplanet formation and inward migration further […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Daisuke Toyouchi, Kenta Hotokezaka, Kohei Inayoshi, Rolf Kuiper, | Summary: Radiation-driven outflows play a crucial role in extracting mass and angular momentum from binary systems undergoing rapid mass transfer at super-Eddington rates. To study the mass transfer process from a massive donor star to a stellar-mass black […]
Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Wei-Yang Wang, Chen Zhang, Enping Zhou, Xiaohui Liu, Jiarui Niu | Summary: With a growing sample of fast radio bursts (FRBs), we investigate the energy budget of different power sources within the framework of magnetar starquake triggering mechanism. During a starquake, the energy can be released in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey J. McMahon | First 5 Authors: Carlos E. Sierra, Kathleen Harrington, Shreya Sutariya, Thomas Alford, Anna M. Kofman | Summary: The Simons Observatory will map the temperature and polarization over half of the sky, at millimeter wavelengths in six spectral bands from the Atacama Desert in Chile. These data will provide new […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sven Herrmann | First 5 Authors: Daniel Shy, Richard S. Woolf, Clio Sleator, Bernard Phlips, J. Eric Grove | Summary: The ComPair gamma-ray telescope is a technology demonstrator for a future gamma-ray telescope called the All-sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory (AMEGO). The instrument is composed of four subsystems, a double-sided silicon strip detector, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Eric D. Miller | First 5 Authors: Arnab Sarkar, Catherine E. Grant, Eric D. Miller, Mark Bautz, Benjamin Schneider | Summary: Galactic cosmic ray (GCR) particles have a significant impact on the particle-induced background of X-ray observatories, and their flux exhibits substantial temporal variability, potentially influencing background levels. In this study, we present […]
