Cancelling mod-2 anomalies by Green-Schwarz mechanism with $B_{μν}$

Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Shota Saito, Yuji Tachikawa, , , | Summary: We study if and when mod-2 anomalies can be canceled by the Green-Schwarz mechanism with the introduction of an antisymmetric tensor field $B_{munu}$. As explicit examples, we examine $SU(2)$ and more general $Sp(n)$ gauge theories in four and eight […]

$S^5$: New insights from deep spectroscopic observations of the tidal tails of the globular clusters NGC 1261 and NGC 1904

Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Petra Awad, Ting S. Li, Denis Erkal, Reynier F. Peletier, Kerstin Bunte | Summary: As globular clusters (GCs) orbit the Milky Way, their stars are tidally stripped forming tidal tails that follow the orbit of the clusters around the Galaxy. The morphology of these tails is […]

The THESAN project: tracking the expansion and merger histories of ionized bubbles during the Epoch of Reionization

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Nathan Jamieson, Aaron Smith, Meredith Neyer, Rahul Kannan, Enrico Garaldi | Summary: The growth of ionized hydrogen bubbles in the intergalactic medium around early luminous objects is a fundamental process during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). In this study, we analyze bubble sizes and their evolution using […]

Intelligent Adaptive Metasurface in Complex Wireless Environments

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Han Qing Yang, Jun Yan Dai, Hui Dong Li, Lijie Wu, Meng Zhen Zhang | Summary: The programmable metasurface is regarded as one of the most promising transformative technologies for next-generation wireless system applications. Due to the lack of effective perception ability of the external electromagnetic environment, […]

Crunch from AdS bubble collapse in unbounded potentials

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Kaloian D. Lozanov, Misao Sasaki, , , | Summary: We consider a scalar field theory with a Minkowski false vacuum and an unbounded (or very deep) true vacuum. We show compelling evidence that an AdS bubble of vanishing total energy, embedded in asymptotically flat spacetime, generically undergoes […]

A halo model approach for mock catalogs of time-variable strong gravitational lenses

Kavli Affiliate: Philip J. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Katsuya T. Abe, Masamune Oguri, Simon Birrer, Narayan Khadka, Philip J. Marshall | Summary: Time delays in both galaxy- and cluster-scale strong gravitational lenses have recently attracted a lot of attention in the context of the Hubble tension. Future wide-field cadenced surveys, such as the LSST, […]
