Mineral Detection of Neutrinos and Dark Matter. A Whitepaper

Kavli Affiliate: Noah A. Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Baum, Patrick Stengel, Natsue Abe, Javier F. Acevedo, Gabriela R. Araujo | Summary: Minerals are solid state nuclear track detectors – nuclear recoils in a mineral leave latent damage to the crystal structure. Depending on the mineral and its temperature, the damage features are retained […]

Searching for Ultralight Dark Matter Conversion in Solar Corona using Low Frequency Array Data

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Haipeng An, Xingyao Chen, Shuailiang Ge, Jia Liu, Yan Luo | Summary: Ultralight dark photons and axions are well-motivated hypothetical dark matter candidates. Both dark photon dark matter and axion dark matter can resonantly convert into electromagnetic waves in the solar corona when their mass is equal […]

Joint analysis constraints on the physics of the first galaxies with low frequency radio astronomy data

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Harry T. J. Bevins, Stefan Heimersheim, Irene Abril-Cabezas, Anastasia Fialkov, Eloy de Lera Acedo | Summary: Observations of the first billion years of cosmic history are currently limited. We demonstrate, using a novel machine learning technique, the synergy between observations of the sky-averaged 21-cm signal from neutral […]

Joint analysis constraints on the physics of the first galaxies with low frequency radio astronomy data

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Harry T. J. Bevins, Stefan Heimersheim, Irene Abril-Cabezas, Anastasia Fialkov, Eloy de Lera Acedo | Summary: The first billion years of cosmic history remains largely unobserved. We demonstrate, using a novel machine learning technique, how combining upper limits on the spatial fluctuations in the 21-cm signal with […]

TDCOSMO. XIII. Improved Hubble constant measurement from lensing time delays using spatially resolved stellar kinematics of the lens galaxy

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua A. Frieman | First 5 Authors: Anowar J. Shajib, Pritom Mozumdar, Geoff C. -F. Chen, Tommaso Treu, Michele Cappellari | Summary: Strong-lensing time delays enable measurement of the Hubble constant ($H_{0}$) independently of other traditional methods. The main limitation to the precision of time-delay cosmography is mass-sheet degeneracy (MSD). Some of the […]

White dwarf — red giant star binaries as Type Ia supernova progenitors: with and without magnetic confinement

Kavli Affiliate: Saul A. Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Iminhaji Ablimit, Philipp Podsiadlowski, Rosanne Di Stefano, Saul A. Rappaport, James Wicker | Summary: Various white-dwarf (WD) binary scenarios have been proposed trying to understand the nature and the diversity of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). In this work, we study the evolution of carbon-oxygen WD […]

The cosmic web of X-ray active galactic nuclei seen through the eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey (eFEDS)

Kavli Affiliate: John Silverman | First 5 Authors: Johan Comparat, Wentao Luo, Andrea Merloni, Surhud More, Mara Salvato | Summary: Which galaxies in the general population turn into active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is a keystone of galaxy formation and evolution. Thanks to SRG/eROSITA’s contiguous 140 square degree pilot survey field, we constructed a large, complete, […]
