An accurate measurement of the spectral resolution of the JWST Near Infrared Spectrograph

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Frieman | Summary:The spectral resolution ($R equiv λ/ Δλ$) of spectroscopic data is crucial information for accurate kinematic measurements. In this letter, we present a robust measurement of the spectral resolution of the JWST’s Near Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) in fixed slit (FS) and integral field spectroscopy (IFS) modes. Due to the similarity […]

Zariski-dense deformations of standard discontinuous groups for pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous spaces

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiyuki Kobayashi | Summary:Let $X=G/H$ be a homogeneous space of a Lie group $G$. When the isotropy subgroup $H$ is non-compact, a discrete subgroup $Γ$ may fail to act properly discontinuously on $X$. In this article, we address the following question: in the setting where $G$ and $H$ are reductive Lie groups and […]

What Sets the Metallicity of Ultra-Faint Dwarfs?

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | Summary:We use intergalactic medium (IGM) metallicity distributions from several state-of-the-art cosmological simulations of Milky Way analogs and a semi-analytic model of ultra-faint dwarf galaxy (UFD) formation to model the stellar metallicities of UFDs in MW-like environments. We study simulations with different treatments of star formation, stellar feedback, and Population III […]

Heat-flux Instabilities of Regularized Kappa Distributed Strahl Electrons Resolved with ALPS

Kavli Affiliate: Dustin M. Schroeder| First 5 Authors: Dustin L. Schröder, Dustin L. Schröder, , , | Summary:The fluid behavior of the solar wind is affected by the heat flux carried by the suprathermal electron populations, especially the electron strahl (or beam) that propagates along the magnetic field. In turn, the electron strahl cannot be […]
