Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a high contrast imaging instrument that aims to detect and characterize extrasolar planets. GPI is being upgraded to GPI 2.0, with several subsystems receiving a re-design to improve the instrument’s contrast. To enable observations on […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephan S. Meyer | First 5 Authors: Viktoria Kungel, Matteo Battisti, George Filippatos, Tobias Heibges, Evgeny Kuznetsov | Summary: The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon 2 (EUSO-SPB2), successfully launched from Wanaka, New Zealand on May 13, 2022, is a precursor for a space-based astroparticle observatory such as the Probe […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Dawoon E. Kim, Laura Di Gesu, Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Svetlana G. Jorstad | Summary: We conducted a polarimetry campaign from radio to X-ray wavelengths of the high-synchrotron-peak (HSP) blazar Mrk 421, including Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) measurements on 2022 December 6-8. We detected […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Peter S. Park, Max Tegmark, , , | Summary: AI companies are attempting to create AI systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work. Current AI models are already automating away the livelihoods of some artists, actors, and writers. But there is infighting between those who […]

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Laura K. Rogers, John Debes, Richard J. Anslow, Amy Bonsor, S. L. Casewell | Summary: This work combines spectroscopic and photometric data of the polluted white dwarf WD0141-675 which has a now retracted astrometric super-Jupiter candidate and investigates the most promising ways to confirm Gaia astrometric planetary […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert Cameron | First 5 Authors: Veronika Witzke, Alexander I. Shapiro, Nadiia M. Kostogryz, Lucien Mauviard, Tanayveer S. Bhatia | Summary: Three-dimensional (3D) radiative magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations are the only way to model stellar atmospheres without any ad hoc parameterisations. Several 3D radiative MHD codes have achieved good quantitative agreement with observables for […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Stefan Heimersheim, Leiv Rønneberg, Henry Linton, Filippo Pagani, Anastasia Fialkov | Summary: The cosmological 21 cm signal is one of the most promising avenues to study the Epoch of Reionization. One class of experiments aiming to detect this signal is global signal experiments measuring the sky-averaged 21 […]

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Suyeon Son, Minjin Kim, Luis C. Ho, , | Summary: Using the multi-epoch mid-infrared (MIR) photometry from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer spanning a baseline of $sim10$ yr, we extensively investigate the MIR variability of nearby active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at $0.15 < z < 0.4$.
