Kavli Affiliate: Michael D. Gladders | First 5 Authors: Ramesh Mainali, Jane R. Rigby, John Chisholm, Matthew Bayliss, Rongmon Bordoloi | Summary: We analyze spectra of a gravitationally lensed galaxy, known as the Sunburst Arc, that is leaking ionizing photons, also known as the Lyman continuum (LyC). Magnification from gravitational lensing permits the galaxy to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Jie Lin, Chunqian Li, Weiyang Wang, Heng Xu, Jinchen Jiang | Summary: We report the discovery of a dark companion to 2MASS J15274848+3536572 with an orbital period of 6.14 hours. Combining the radial velocity of LAMOST observation and the modelling of the multi-band light curve, one has […]

Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Abigail Moran, Chiara M. F. Mingarelli, Megan Bedell, Deborah Good, David N. Spergel | Summary: Pulsar distances are notoriously difficult to measure, and play an important role in many fundamental physics experiments, such as pulsar timing arrays (PTAs). Here we perform a cross-match between International PTA […]
Kavli Affiliate: Moritz Guenther | First 5 Authors: Michihiro Takami, Hans Moritz Guenther, P. Christian Schneider, Tracy L. Beck, Jennifer L. Karr | Summary: We present Gemini-NIFS, VLT-SINFONI and Keck-OSIRIS observations of near-infrared [Fe II] emission associated with the well-studied jets from three active T Tauri stars; RW Aur A, RY Tau and DG Tau […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Dominika Wylezalek, Andrey Vayner, David S. N. Rupke, Nadia L. Zakamska, Sylvain Veilleux | Summary: Extremely red quasars, with bolometric luminosities exceeding $10^{47}$ erg s$^{-1}$, are a fascinating high-redshift population that is absent in the local universe. They are the best candidates for supermassive black holes accreting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Alejandro Torres-Orjuela, Xian Chen, , , | Summary: Standard sirens — gravitational wave (GW) sources with an electromagnetic (EM) counterpart — can be used to measure the Hubble constant directly which should help to ease the existing Hubble tension. However, if the source is moving, a relativistic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Yiqi Xie, Deep Chatterjee, Gilbert Holder, Daniel E. Holz, Scott Perkins | Summary: The distance-inclination degeneracy limits gravitational-wave parameter estimation of compact binary mergers. Although the degeneracy can be partially broken by including higher-order modes or precession, these effects are suppressed in binary neutron stars. In […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Anirban Das, Noah Kurinsky, Rebecca K. Leane, , | Summary: We present single quasiparticle devices as new dark matter (DM) detectors. The threshold of these devices is set by the cooper pair binding energy, and is therefore so low that they can detect DM as light as […]
