The 2022 Outburst of IGR J17091-3624: Connecting the exotic GRS 1915+105 to standard black hole X-ray binaries

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Jingyi Wang, Erin Kara, Javier A. García, Diego Altamirano, Tomaso Belloni | Summary: While the standard X-ray variability of black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) is stochastic and noisy, there are two known BHXBs that exhibit exotic `heartbeat’-like variability in their light curves: GRS 1915+105 and IGR J17091-3624. […]

COOL-LAMPS VI: Lens model and New Constraints on the Properties of COOL J1241+2219, a Bright z = 5 Lyman Break Galaxy and its z = 1 Cluster Lens

Kavli Affiliate: Michael D. Gladders | First 5 Authors: Maxwell Klein, Keren Sharon, Kate Napier, Michael D. Gladders, Gourav Khullar | Summary: We present a strong lensing analysis of COOL J1241+2219, the brightest known gravitationally lensed galaxy at $z geq 5$, based on new multi-band Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging data. The lensed galaxy has […]

A long-period transiting substellar companion in the super-Jupiters to brown dwarfs mass regime and a prototypical warm-Jupiter detected by TESS

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Matias I. Jones, Yared Reinarz, Rafael Brahm, Marcelo Tala Pinto, Jan Eberhardt | Summary: We report on the confirmation and follow-up characterization of two long-period transiting substellar companions on low-eccentricity orbits around TIC 4672985 and TOI-2529, whose transit events were detected by the TESS space mission. Ground-based […]

Parameterizing black hole orbits for adiabatic inspiral

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Scott A. Hughes, , , , | Summary: Adiabatic binary inspiral in the small mass ratio limit treats the small body as moving along a geodesic of a large Kerr black hole, with the geodesic slowly evolving due to radiative backreaction. Up to initial conditions, geodesics […]

Quantifying the escape of Ly$α$ at $zapprox 5-6$: a census of Ly$α$ escape fraction with H$α$ emitting galaxies spectroscopically confirmed by JWST and VLT/MUSE

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Xiaojing Lin, Zheng Cai, Yunjing Wu, Zihao Li, Fengwu Sun | Summary: JWST provides an unprecedented opportunity for unbiased surveys of H$alpha$-emitting galaxies at $z>4$ with the NIRCam wide-field slitless spectroscopy (WFSS). In this work, we present a census of Ly$alpha$ escape fraction ($f_{esc, Lyalpha}$) of 165 […]
