Broadband X-ray timing and spectral characteristics of the accretion-powered millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1816$-$195

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Zhaosheng Li, Lucien Kuiper, Mingyu Ge, Maurizio Falanga, Juri Poutanen | Summary: We studied the broadband X-ray timing and spectral behaviors of the newly confirmed accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1816$-$195 during its 2022 outburst. We used the data from Insight-HXMT ME/HE, NICER and NuSTAR which cover […]

Absorption of Vector Dark Matter Beyond Kinetic Mixing

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Gordan Krnjaic, Tanner Trickle, , , | Summary: Massive vector particles are minimal dark matter candidates that motivate a wide range of laboratory searches, primarily exploiting a postulated kinetic mixing with the photon. However, depending on the high energy field content, the dominant vector dark matter (VDM) […]

High-density reflection spectroscopy of black hole X-ray binaries in the hard state

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Honghui Liu, Jiachen Jiang, Zuobin Zhang, Cosimo Bambi, Andrew C. Fabian | Summary: We present a high-density relativistic reflection analysis of 21 spectra of six black hole X-ray binaries in the hard state with data from textit{NuSTAR} and textit{Swift}. We find that 76% of the observations in […]

SPT-CL J2215-3537: A Massive Starburst at the Center of the Most Distant Relaxed Galaxy Cluster

Kavli Affiliate: Adam B. Mantz | First 5 Authors: Michael S. Calzadilla, Lindsey E. Bleem, Michael McDonald, Michael D. Gladders, Adam B. Mantz | Summary: We present the discovery of the most distant, dynamically relaxed cool core cluster, SPT-CL J2215-3537 (SPT2215) and its central brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) at z=1.16. Using new X-ray observations, we […]

Anatomy of plasmons in generic Luttinger semimetals

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, Ipsita Mandal, , , | Summary: We investigate the parameter regimes favourable for the emergence of plasmons in isotropic, anisotropic, and band-mass symmetric and asymmetric Luttinger semimetals (LSMs). An LSM harbours a quadratic band-crossing point (QBCP) in its bandstructure, where the upper and lower branches […]

Aemulus $ν$: Precise Predictions for Matter and Biased Tracer Power Spectra in the Presence of Neutrinos

Kavli Affiliate: Risa Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Joseph DeRose, Nickolas Kokron, Arka Banerjee, Shi-Fan Chen, Martin White | Summary: We present the Aemulus $nu$ simulations: a suite of 150 $(1.05 h^{-1}rm Gpc)^3$ $N$-body simulations with a mass resolution of $3.51times 10^{10} frac{Omega_{cb}}{0.3} ~ h^{-1} M_{odot}$ in a $wnu$CDM cosmological parameter space. The simulations have […]

First results from the JWST Early Release Science Program Q3D: The Warm Ionized Gas Outflow in z ~ 1.6 Quasar XID 2028 and its Impact on the Host Galaxy

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Sylvain Veilleux, Weizhe Liu, Andrey Vayner, Dominika Wylezalek, David S. N. Rupke | Summary: Quasar feedback may regulate the growth of supermassive black holes, quench coeval star formation, and impact galaxy morphology and the circumgalactic medium. However, direct evidence for quasar feedback in action at the epoch […]
