High-Precision Redshifts for Type Ia Supernovae with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope P127 Prism

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Kessler | First 5 Authors: Bhavin A. Joshi, Louis-Gregory Strolger, Russell E. Ryan, Jr., Alexei V. Filippenko, Rebekah Hounsell | Summary: We present results from simulating slitless spectroscopic observations with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope’s (Roman) Wide-Field Instrument (WFI) P127 prism spanning 0.75 $mu m$ to 1.8 $mu m$. We quantify […]

Removing the fat from your posterior samples with margarine

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Harry T. J. Bevins, William J. Handley, Pablo Lemos, Peter H. Sims, Eloy de Lera Acedo | Summary: Bayesian workflows often require the introduction of nuisance parameters, yet for core science modelling one needs access to a marginal posterior density. In this work we use masked autoregressive […]

Gravity as a gapless phase and biform symmetries

Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | First 5 Authors: Kurt Hinterbichler, Diego M. Hofman, Austin Joyce, GrĂ©goire Mathys, | Summary: We study effective field theories (EFTs) enjoying (maximal) biform symmetries. These are defined by the presence of a conserved (electric) current that has the symmetries of a Young tableau with two columns of equal length. When […]

Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect and X-ray scaling relations of galaxies, groups and clusters in the IllustrisTNG simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Ana-Roxana Pop, Lars Hernquist, Daisuke Nagai, Rahul Kannan, Rainer Weinberger | Summary: Observable thermodynamical properties of the intracluster medium (ICM) reflect the complex interplay between AGN feedback and the gravitational collapse of haloes. Using the large volume TNG300 simulation of the IllustrisTNG project we provide predictions for […]

MgII in the JWST Era: a Probe of Lyman Continuum Escape?

Kavli Affiliate: Martin Haehnelt | First 5 Authors: Harley Katz, Thibault Garel, Joakim Rosdahl, Valentin Mauerhofer, Taysun Kimm | Summary: Limited constraints on the evolution of the Lyman Continuum (LyC) escape fraction represent one of the primary uncertainties in the theoretical determination of the reionization history. Due to the intervening intergalactic medium (IGM), the possibility […]

A Taxonomy for the Configurations of Quadruply Lensed Quasars

Kavli Affiliate: Paul L. Schechter | First 5 Authors: Paul L. Schechter, , , , | Summary: A simple, novice-friendly scheme for classifying the image configurations of quadruply lensed quasars is proposed. With only six classes, it is intentionally coarse-grained. Readers are invited to test drive the scheme on a sample of 12 quadruply lensed […]

Schechter, , , , | Summary: A simple, novice-friendly scheme for classifying the image configurations of quadruply lensed quasars is proposed. With only six classes, it is intentionally coarse-grained. It focuses on the kitelikeness and circularity of these configurations, or the absence thereof. Other […]
