Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Taeho Ryu, Pau Amaro Seoane, Andrew M. Taylor, Sebastian T. Ohlmann, | Summary: In stellar-dense environments, stars can collide with each other. For collisions close to a supermassive black hole (SMBH), the collisional kinetic energy can be so large that the colliding stars can be completely […]
Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Jonathan Cabrera Garcia, Timothy C. Beers, Yang Huang, Xin-Yi Li, Gaochao Liu | Summary: We employ a sample of 135,873 RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) with precise photometric-metallicity and distance estimates from the newly calibrated $P$–$phi_{31}$–$R_{21}$–[Fe/H] and $Gaia$ $G$-band $P$–$R_{21}$–[Fe/H] absolute magnitude-metallicity relations of Li et al., combined […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Michael W. Topping, Daniel P. Stark, Ryan Endsley, Lily Whitler, Kevin Hainline | Summary: The power-law slope of the rest-UV continuum ($f_{lambda}proptolambda^{beta}$) is a key metric of early star forming galaxies, providing one of our only windows into the stellar populations and physical conditions of $z>10$ galaxies. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: J. D. Hartman, G. Á. Bakos, Z. Csubry, A. W. Howard, H. Isaacson | Summary: We present the discovery from the TESS mission of two giant planets transiting M dwarf stars: TOI 4201 b and TOI 5344 b. We also provide precise radial velocity measurements and updated […]

Kavli Affiliate: Igor V. Moskalenko | First 5 Authors: Yoann Génolini, David Maurin, Igor V. Moskalenko, Michael Unger, | Summary: High-precision cosmic-ray data from ongoing and recent past experiments (Voyager, ACE-CRIS, PAMELA, ATIC, CREAM, NUCLEON, AMS-02, CALET, DAMPE) are being released in the tens of MeV/n to multi-TeV/n energy range. Astrophysical and dark matter interpretations […]

Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Tianjun Gan, Charles Cadieux, Farbod Jahandar, Allona Vazan, Sharon X. Wang | Summary: Observations and statistical studies have shown that giant planets are rare around M dwarfs compared with Sun-like stars. The formation mechanism of these extreme systems remains under debate for decades. With the help […]
