Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Wen-Li Yuan, Chun Huang, Chen Zhang, Enping Zhou, Renxin Xu | Summary: The observations of compact star inspirals from LIGO/Virgo combined with mass and radius measurements from NICER provide a valuable tool to study the highly uncertain equation of state (EOS) of dense matter at the densities […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salman Habib | First 5 Authors: Kelly R. Moran, Richard Payne, Earl Lawrence, David Higdon, Stephen A. Walsh | Summary: The nonlinear matter power spectrum in cosmology describes how matter density fluctuations vary with scale in the universe, providing critical insights into large-scale structure formation. The matter power spectrum includes both smooth regions […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael McDonald | First 5 Authors: Ian McConachie, Gillian Wilson, Ben Forrest, Z. Cemile Marsan, Adam Muzzin | Summary: We examine the quiescent fractions of massive galaxies in six $zgtrsim3$ spectroscopically-confirmed protoclusters in the COSMOS field, one of which is newly confirmed and presented here. We report the spectroscopic confirmation of MAGAZ3NE~J100143+023021 at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chihway Chang | First 5 Authors: Benjamin Levine, Javier Sánchez, Chihway Chang, Anja von der Linden, Eboni Collins | Summary: The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will survey the southern sky to create the largest galaxy catalog to date, and its statistical power demands an improved understanding […]

Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Gautam Venugopalan, Giorgio Gratta, , , | Summary: Microscopic devices are widely used in optomechanical experiments at the cutting-edge of precision experimental physics. Such devices often need to have high electrical conductivity but low reflectivity at optical wavelengths, which can be competing requirements for many commonly available […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: We investigate how stellar feedback from the first stars (Population III) distributes metals through the interstellar and intergalactic medium using the star-by-star cosmological hydrodynamics simulation, Aeos. We find that energy injected from the supernovae of the first stars is enough to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Qingjuan Yu | First 5 Authors: Xiao Guo, Qingjuan Yu, Youjun Lu, , | Summary: Massive black holes (MBHs) exist in the Galactic center (GC) and other nearby galactic nuclei. As natural outcome of galaxy mergers, some MBHs may have a black hole (BH) companion. In this paper, assuming that the MBHs in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: H. N. Smitha, Alexander I. Shapiro, Veronika Witzke, Nadiia M. Kostogryz, Yvonne C. Unruh | Summary: Accurate calculations of starspot spectra are essential for multiple applications in astronomy. The current standard is to represent starspot spectra by spectra of stars that are cooler than the quiet star […]
