Design and analysis of electrothermal metasurfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Xiu Liu, Zhuo Li, Zexiao Wang, Hyeong Seok Yun, Sheng Shen | Summary: Electrothermal metasurfaces have attracted extensive attention due to their ability to dynamically control thermal infrared radiation. Although previous studies were mainly focused on the metasurfaces with infinite unit cells, the finite-size effect can be […]

Ionized Outflows in Nearby Quasars are Poorly Coupled to their Host Galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Juan Molina, Luis C. Ho, Ran Wang, Jinyi Shangguan, Franz E. Bauer | Summary: We analyze Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer observations of nine low-redshift (z < 0.1) Palomar-Green quasar host galaxies to investigate the spatial distribution and kinematics of the warm, ionized interstellar medium, with the goal […]

The Tidal Disruption Event AT2021ehb: Evidence of Relativistic Disk Reflection, and Rapid Evolution of the Disk-Corona System

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Yuhan Yao, Wenbin Lu, Muryel Guolo, Dheeraj R. Pasham, Suvi Gezari | Summary: We present X-ray, UV, optical, and radio observations of the nearby ($approx78$ Mpc) tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2021ehb/ZTF21aanxhjv during its first 430 days of evolution. AT2021ehb occurs in the nucleus of a galaxy […]

The complex dynamical past and future of double eclipsing binary CzeV343: misaligned orbits and period resonance

Kavli Affiliate: Michael M. Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Ondřej Pejcha, Pavel Cagaš, Camille Landri, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Gisella De Rosa | Summary: CzeV343 was previously identified as a candidate double eclipsing binary (2+2 quadruple), where the orbital periods of the two eclipsing binaries ($P_A approx 1.2$ days and $P_B approx 0.8$ days) lie very […]

X-ray Halos around Massive Galaxies: Data and Theory

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Akos Bogdan, Mark Vogelsberger, , , | Summary: The presence of gaseous X-ray halos around massive galaxies is a basic prediction of all past and modern structure formation simulations. The importance of these X-ray halos is further emphasized by the fact that they retain signatures of the […]

A non-linear solution to the $S_8$ tension?

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Alexandra Amon, George Efstathiou, , , | Summary: Weak galaxy lensing surveys have consistently reported a lower amplitude for the matter fluctuation spectrum, as measured by the $S_8$ parameter, than expected in the $Lambda{rm CDM}$ cosmology favoured by $Planck$. However, the expansion history follows the predictions of […]

Chandra, HST/STIS, NICER, Swift, and TESS Detail the Flare Evolution of the Repeating Nuclear Transient ASASSN-14ko

Kavli Affiliate: Michael M. Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Anna V. Payne, Katie Auchettl, Benjamin J. Shappee, Christopher S. Kochanek, Patricia T. Boyd | Summary: ASASSN-14ko is a nuclear transient at the center of the AGN ESO 253-G003 that undergoes periodic flares. Optical flares were first observed in 2014 by the All-Sky Automated Survey for […]

Two can play at that game: constraining the role of supernova and AGN feedback in dwarf galaxies with cosmological zoom-in simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Sophie Koudmani, Debora Sijacki, Matthew C. Smith, , | Summary: There is growing observational evidence for dwarf galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei (AGN), including hints of AGN-driven outflows in dwarfs. However, in the common theoretical model of galaxy formation, efficient supernova (SN) feedback is the tool of […]
