A tight universal relation between the shape eccentricity and the moment of inertia for rotating neutron stars

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Yong Gao, Lijing Shao, Jan Steinhoff, , | Summary: Universal relations that are insensitive to the equation of state (EoS) are useful in reducing the parameter space when measuring global quantities of neutron stars (NSs). In this paper, we reveal a new universal relation that connects the […]

The dark matter profile of the Milky Way inferred from its circular velocity curve

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Xiaowei Ou, Anna-Christina Eilers, Lina Necib, Anna Frebel, | Summary: In this paper, we construct the circular velocity curve of the Milky Way out to $sim 30$ kpc, providing an updated model of the dark matter density profile. We derive precise parallaxes for 120,309 stars with a […]

EMPRESS. XII. Statistics on the Dynamics and Gas Mass Fraction of Extremely-Metal Poor Galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | First 5 Authors: Yi Xu, Masami Ouchi, Yuki Isobe, Kimihiko Nakajima, Shinobu Ozaki | Summary: We present demography of the dynamics and gas-mass fraction of 33 extremely metal-poor galaxies (EMPGs) with metallicities of $0.015-0.195~Z_odot$ and low stellar masses of $10^4-10^8~M_odot$ in the local universe. We conduct deep optical integral-field spectroscopy […]

Buzzard to Cardinal: Improved Mock Catalogs for Large Galaxy Surveys

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Chun-Hao To, Joseph DeRose, Risa H. Wechsler, Eli Rykoff, Hao-Yi Wu | Summary: We present the Cardinal mock galaxy catalogs, a new version of the Buzzard simulation that has been updated to support ongoing and future cosmological surveys, including DES, DESI, and LSST. These catalogs are based […]

The first X-ray polarimetric observation of the black hole binary LMC X-1

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Jakub Podgorny, Lorenzo Marra, Fabio Muleri, Nicole Rodriguez Cavero, Ajay Ratheesh | Summary: We report on an X-ray polarimetric observation of the high-mass X-ray binary LMC X-1 in the high/soft state, obtained by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) in October 2022. The measured polarization is […]

Learning Optical Flow and Scene Flow with Bidirectional Camera-LiDAR Fusion

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Haisong Liu, Tao Lu, Yihui Xu, Jia Liu, Limin Wang | Summary: In this paper, we study the problem of jointly estimating the optical flow and scene flow from synchronized 2D and 3D data. Previous methods either employ a complex pipeline that splits the joint task into […]

Comparison of Polarized Radiative Transfer Codes used by the EHT Collaboration

Kavli Affiliate: Bradford A. Benson | First 5 Authors: Ben S. Prather, Jason Dexter, Monika Moscibrodzka, Hung-Yi Pu, Thomas Bronzwaer | Summary: Interpretation of resolved polarized images of black holes by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) requires predictions of the polarized emission observable by an Earth-based instrument for a particular model of the black hole […]
