The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): The Future of Hard X-ray Dual AGN Science

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Ryan W. Pfeifle, Peter G. Boorman, Kimberly A. Weaver, Johannes Buchner, Francesca Civano | Summary: A fundamental goal of modern-day astrophysics is to understand the connection between supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth and galaxy evolution. Merging galaxies offer one of the most dramatic channels for galaxy evolution […]

The Strength and Variability of the Helium 10830 Å Triplet in Young Stars, with Implications for Exosphere Detection

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Daniel M. Krolikowski, Adam L. Kraus, Benjamin M. Tofflemire, Caroline V. Morley, Andrew W. Mann | Summary: Young exoplanets trace planetary evolution, particularly the atmospheric mass loss that is most dynamic in youth. However, the high activity level of young stars can mask or mimic the spectroscopic […]

Learning to Control under Uncertainty with Data-Based Iterative Linear Quadratic Regulator

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Ran Wang, Raman Goyal, Suman Chakravorty, , | Summary: This paper studies the learning-to-control problem under process and sensing uncertainties for dynamical systems. In our previous work, we developed a data-based generalization of the iterative linear quadratic regulator (iLQR) to design closed-loop feedback control for high-dimensional dynamical […]
