Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: SDSS Collaboration, SDSS Collaboration, , , | Summary: Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial objects to constrain the physical processes that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Zucker| First 5 Authors: SDSS Collaboration, SDSS Collaboration, , , | Summary:Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial objects to constrain the physical processes that govern our Universe. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Zucker| First 5 Authors: Juna A. Kollmeier, Juna A. Kollmeier, , , | Summary:The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-V (SDSS-V) is pioneering panoptic spectroscopy: it is the first all-sky, multi-epoch, optical-to-infrared spectroscopic survey. SDSS-V is mapping the sky with multi-object spectroscopy (MOS) at telescopes in both hemispheres (the 2.5-m Sloan Foundation Telescope at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Norbert Schulz| First 5 Authors: Mathias Schulz, Mathias Schulz, , , | Summary:This study presents findings from long-term biometric evaluations conducted at the Biometric Evaluation Center (bez). Over the course of two and a half years, our ongoing research with over 400 participants representing diverse ethnicities, genders, and age groups were regularly assessed […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Hugh Roxburgh, Hugh Roxburgh, , , | Summary: We probe the atomic hydrogen (HI) emission from the host galaxies of fast radio bursts (FRBs) to investigate the emerging trend of disturbance and asymmetry in the population. Quadrupling the sample size, we detect 13 of 14 new hosts […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael D. Gladders | First 5 Authors: Michelle A. Berg, Michelle A. Berg, , , | Summary: Gravitational lensing has transformed the field of gas tomography in the intergalactic medium (IGM) and circumgalactic medium (CGM). Here we use the brightest lensed galaxy identified to date, the Sunburst Arc ($z$$approx$2.37), to constrain the physical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Fausnaugh | Summary:Optical observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) contemporaneous with their prompt high-energy emission are rare, but they can provide insights into the physical processes underlying these explosive events. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite’s (TESS) large field of view and continuous observation capabilities make it uniquely positioned to detect and characterize prompt […]
Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | Summary:Protoclusters represent the most extreme environments in the very early Universe. They form from large-scale dark matter overdensities, harbouring an overabundance of galaxies fed by large gas reservoirs. Their early and accelerated evolution results in a distinct difference in the properties of galaxies resident in protoclusters versus the field, which […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hsiao-Mei (Sherry) Cho| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:Data summarization is essential to discover insights from large datasets. In a spreadsheets, pivot tables offer a convenient way to summarize tabular data by computing aggregates over some attributes, grouped by others. However, identifying attribute combinations that will result in useful pivot […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hsiao-Mei (Sherry) Cho| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:Grasp pose detection (GPD) is a fundamental capability for robotic autonomy, but its reliance on large, diverse datasets creates significant data privacy and centralization challenges. Federated Learning (FL) offers a privacy-preserving solution, but its application to GPD is hindered by the substantial […]
