Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Francesca Civano, Xiurui Zhao, Peter Boorman, Stefano Marchesi, Tonima Ananna | Summary: Since the discovery of the Cosmic X-ray Background, astronomers have strived to understand the accreting super massive black holes contributing to its peak in the 10-40 keV band. Existing soft X-ray telescopes could study this […]

Existing soft X-ray telescopes could study […]
Kavli Affiliate: Melania Nynka | First 5 Authors: Stephen Reynolds, Hongjun An, Moaz Abdelmaguid, Jason Alford, Chris L. Fryer | Summary: HEX-P is a probe-class mission concept that will combine high spatial resolution X-ray imaging ($<10"$ full width at half maximum) and broad spectral coverage (0.2–80 keV) with an effective area far superior to current […]

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: John Rankin, Fabio La Monaca, Alessandro Di Marco, Juri Poutanen, Anna Bobrikova | Summary: Cir X-1 is a neutron star X-ray binary characterized by strong variations in flux during its eccentric $sim$16.6 days orbit. There are also strong variations in the spectral state, and historically it […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Tianchen Zhou, Jia Liu, Yang Jiao, Chaosheng Dong, Yetian Chen | Summary: Online learning to rank (ONL2R) is a foundational problem for recommender systems and has received increasing attention in recent years. Among the existing approaches for ONL2R, a natural modeling architecture is the multi-armed bandit framework […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kent Irwin | First 5 Authors: David C. Goldfinger, Zeeshan Ahmed, Darcy R. Barron, W. Bertrand Doriese, Malcolm Durkin | Summary: The CMB-S4 experiment is developing next-generation ground-based microwave telescopes to observe the Cosmic Microwave Background with unprecedented sensitivity. This will require an order of magnitude increase in the 100 mK detector count, […]
