Cosmic Reionization On Computers: Statistics, Physical Properties and Environment of Lyman Limit Systems at $zsim6$

Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Jiawen Fan, Hanjue Zhu, Camille Avestruz, Nickolay Y. Gnedin, | Summary: Lyman Limit Systems (LLSs) are dense hydrogen clouds with high enough HI column densities ($N_{rm HI}$) to absorb Lyman continuum photons emitted from distant quasars. Their high column densities imply an origin in dense environments; […]

Novel Conservative Methods for Adaptive Force Softening in Collisionless and Multi-Species N-Body Simulations

Philip F. Hopkins, Ethan O. Nadler, Michael Y. Grudic, Xuejian Shen, Isabel Sands | Summary: [[{“value”:”Modeling self-gravity of collisionless fluids (e.g. ensembles of dark matter, stars, black holes, dust, planetary bodies) in simulations is challenging and requires some force softening. It is often desirable to allow softenings to evolve adaptively, in any high-dynamic range simulation, […]

A Measurement of the CMB Temperature Power Spectrum and Constraints on Cosmology from the SPT-3G 2018 TT/TE/EE Data Set

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: L. Balkenhol, D. Dutcher, A. Spurio Mancini, A. Doussot, K. Benabed | Summary: We present a sample-variance-limited measurement of the temperature power spectrum ($TT$) of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using observations of a $sim! 1500 ,mathrm{deg}^2$ field made by SPT-3G in 2018. We report multifrequency power […]

Assessing the C/O Ratio Formation Diagnostic: A Potential Trend with Companion Mass

Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Kielan K. W. Hoch, Quinn M. Konopacky, Christopher A. Theissen, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Travis S. Barman | Summary: The carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio in an exoplanet atmosphere has been suggested as a potential diagnostic of planet formation. Now that a number of exoplanets have measured C/O ratios, it is […]

Directional detection of dark matter with anisotropic response functions

Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Christian Boyd, Yonit Hochberg, Yonatan Kahn, Eric David Kramer, Noah Kurinsky | Summary: Direct detection for sub-GeV dark matter is developing rapidly, with many novel experimental ideas and theoretical methods emerging. In this work, we extend the dielectric formalism for dark matter scattering to incorporate anisotropic material […]
