Kavli Affiliate: Lindsey E. Bleem | First 5 Authors: Charles E. Romero, Massimo Gaspari, Gerrit Schellenberger, Bradford A. Benson, Lindsey E. Bleem | Summary: Studies of surface brightness fluctuations in the intracluster medium (ICM) present an indirect probe of turbulent properties such as the turbulent velocities, injection scales, and the slope of the power spectrum […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Xihan Ji, Hannah Übler, Roberto Maiolino, Francesco D’Eugenio, Santiago Arribas | Summary: We report the chemical abundance pattern of GS_3073, a galaxy at $z=5.55$ which was previously confirmed to host an overmassive active black hole, by leveraging the detection of about 40 emission lines, combining JWST/NIRSpec observations […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Sayak Datta, Richard Brito, Scott A. Hughes, Talya Klinger, Paolo Pani | Summary: Tidal heating in a binary black hole system is driven by the absorption of energy and angular momentum by the black hole’s horizon. Previous works have shown that this phenomenon becomes particularly significant […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Judy X Yang, Jun Zhou, Jing Wang, Hui Tian, Wee Chung Liew | Summary: The fusion of hyperspectral and LiDAR data has been an active research topic. Existing fusion methods have ignored the high-dimensionality and redundancy challenges in hyperspectral images, despite that band selection methods have been […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yu Cheng, Xing Lu, Patricio Sanhueza, Hauyu Baobab Liu, Qizhou Zhang | Summary: Filamentary structures are ubiquitously found in high-mass star-forming clouds. To investigate the relationship between filaments and star formation, we carry out the INFANT (INvestigations of massive Filaments ANd sTar formation) survey, a multi-scale, multi-wavelength […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Kevin B. Burdge, Kareem El-Badry, Erin Kara, Claude Canizares, Deepto Chakrabarty | Summary: Evidence suggests that when compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars form, they may receive a “natal kick,” where the stellar remnant gains momentum. Observational evidence for neutron star kicks is substantial, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Dale D. Kocevski, Steven L. Finkelstein, Guillermo Barro, Anthony J. Taylor, Antonello Calabrò | Summary: We present a sample of 341 "little red dots" (LRDs) spanning the redshift range $zsim2-11$ using data from the CEERS, PRIMER, JADES, UNCOVER and NGDEEP surveys. These sources are likely heavily-reddened AGN […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Yan-Qiu Zhang, Hao-Xiang Lin, Shao-Lin Xiong, Zhuo Li, Ming-Yu Ge | Summary: Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to launch relativistic jets, which generate prompt emission by their internal processes and drive external shocks into surrounding medium, accounting for the long-lasting afterglow emission. However, how the jet powers […]
Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Linhua Jiang, Zhiwei Pan, Jessica Nicole Aguilar, Steven Ahlen, Robert Blum | Summary: We present strong constraints on the spacetime variation of the fine-structure constant $alpha$ using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). In this pilot work, we utilize $sim110,000$ galaxies with strong and narrow O III […]
