New limits on the local Lorentz invariance violation of gravity in the Standard-Model Extension with pulsars

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Yiming Dong, Ziming Wang, Lijing Shao, , | Summary: Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV) is posited as a possible relic effect of quantum gravity at low energy scales. The Standard-Model Extension provides an effective field-theoretic framework for examining possible deviations attributed to LIV. With the observations of the […]

New $μ$ Forces From $ν_μ$ Sources

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Cari Cesarotti, Yonatan Kahn, Gordan Krnjaic, Duncan Rocha, Joshua Spitz | Summary: Accelerator-based experiments reliant on charged pion and kaon decays to produce muon-neutrino beams also deliver an associated powerful flux of muons. Therefore, these experiments can additionally be sensitive to light new particles that preferentially couple […]

Direct Optimal Mapping Image Power Spectrum and its Window Functions

Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline N. Hewitt | First 5 Authors: Zhilei Xu, Honggeun Kim, Jacqueline N. Hewitt, Kai-Feng Chen, Nicholas S. Kern | Summary: The key to detecting neutral hydrogen during the epoch of reionization (EoR) is to separate the cosmological signal from the dominating foreground radiation. We developed direct optimal mapping (Xu et al. 2022) […]

Giant Outer Transiting Exoplanet Mass (GOT ‘EM) Survey: III. Recovery and Confirmation of a Temperate, Mildly Eccentric, Single-Transit Jupiter Orbiting TOI-2010

Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Christopher R. Mann, Paul A. Dalba, David Lafrenière, Benjamin J. Fulton, Guillaume Hébrard | Summary: Large-scale exoplanet surveys like the TESS mission are powerful tools for discovering large numbers of exoplanet candidates. Single-transit events are commonplace within the resulting candidate list due to the unavoidable limitation […]
