Stellar Mass-Dispersion Measure Correlations Constrain Baryonic Feedback in Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Calvin Leung, Calvin Leung, , , | Summary: Low redshift fast radio bursts (FRBs) provide robust measurements of the host-galaxy contribution to the dispersion measure (DM), which can constrain the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of the hosts. We curate a sample of 20 nearby FRBs with low […]

WGRAMMAR: Leverage Prior Knowledge to Accelerate Structured Decoding

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Ran Wang, Ran Wang, , , | Summary: Structured decoding enables large language models (LLMs) to generate outputs in formats required by downstream systems, such as HTML or JSON. However, existing methods suffer from efficiency bottlenecks due to grammar compilation, state tracking, and mask creation. We observe […]

EarthCrafter: Scalable 3D Earth Generation via Dual-Sparse Latent Diffusion

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Shang Liu, Shang Liu, , , | Summary: Despite the remarkable developments achieved by recent 3D generation works, scaling these methods to geographic extents, such as modeling thousands of square kilometers of Earth’s surface, remains an open challenge. We address this through a dual innovation in data […]

The THESAN project: environmental drivers of Local Group reionization

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Yu Zhao, Yu Zhao, , , | Summary: The timing of cosmic reionization across Local Group (LG) analogues provides insights into their early histories and surrounding large-scale structure. Using the radiation-hydrodynamic simulation THESAN-1 and its dark matter-only counterpart THESAN-DARK-1, we track the reionization histories of all haloes, […]

A Common Origin of Normal Type Ia Supernovae Suggested by the Photometric Diversity

Kavli Affiliate: Naoki Yasuda | First 5 Authors: Weiyu Wu, Weiyu Wu, , , | Summary: In recent years, with an increasing number of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered soon after their explosions, a non-negligible fraction of SNe Ia with early-excess emissions (EExSNe Ia) have been confirmed. In this letter, we present a total […]

A Virtual Frisch-Grid Geometry-Based CZT Gamma Detector for In-Field Radioisotope Identification

Kavli Affiliate: Sven Herrmann | First 5 Authors: Piotr Maj, Piotr Maj, , , | Summary: We present a Virtual Frisch-Grid geometry-based CZT gamma detector developed for identifying different radioisotopes over an energy range from single keV up to 2 MeV, and useful for efficient characterization of CZT crystals. The detector is built with a […]

Impact of Low-Earth Orbit Satellites on the China Space Station Telescope Observations

Kavli Affiliate: Hu Zhan | First 5 Authors: Huai-Jin Tang, Huai-Jin Tang, , , | Summary: It is projected that more than 100,000 communication satellites will be deployed in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) over the next decade. These LEO satellites (LEOsats) will be captured frequently by the survey camera onboard the China Space Station Telescope (CSST), […]

Searching for periodic signals and quasi-periodic oscillations from an extremely active cycle of FRB 20240114A

Kavli Affiliate: Kejia Lee | First 5 Authors: Dengke Zhou, Dengke Zhou, , , | Summary: Possible periodic features in fast radio bursts (FRBs) may provide insights into their astrophysical origins. Using extensive observations from the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), we conduct a search for periodicity across multiple timescales in the exceptionally active […]
