Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Maia A. Williams, Jamie A. Kennea, S. Dichiara, Kohei Kobayashi, Wataru B. Iwakiri | Summary: We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI), and Neutron […]

Kavli Affiliate: Risa Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Jinyi Yang, Xiaohui Fan, Ansh Gupta, Adam Myers, Nathalie Palanque-Delabrouille | Summary: We report the first results of a high-redshift ($z$ >~ 5) quasar survey using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). As a DESI secondary target program, this survey is designed to carry out a systematic […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Alvaro Pozo, Tom Broadhurst, George F. Smoot, Tzihong Chiueh, Hoang Nhan Luu | Summary: Low mass galaxies in the Local Group are dominated by dark matter and comprise the well studied “dwarf Spheroidal" (dSph) class, with typical masses of $10^{9-10}M_odot$ and also the equally numerous “ultra faint […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael D. Gladders | First 5 Authors: Kate Napier, Keren Sharon, Håkon Dahle, Matthew Bayliss, Michael D. Gladders | Summary: Tension between cosmic microwave background-based and distance ladder-based determinations of the Hubble constant ${rm H}_{rm 0}$ motivates pursuit of independent methods that are not subject to the same systematic effects. A promising alternative, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ronald A. Remillard | First 5 Authors: Benjamin J. Ricketts, James F. Steiner, Cecilia Garraffo, Ronald A. Remillard, Daniela Huppenkothen | Summary: Black hole X-ray binary systems (BHBs) contain a close companion star accreting onto a stellar-mass black hole. A typical BHB undergoes transient outbursts during which it exhibits a sequence of long-lived […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Tibor Dome, Anastasia Fialkov, Nina Sartorio, Philip Mocz, | Summary: On large cosmological scales, anisotropic gravitational collapse is manifest in the dark cosmic web. Its statistical properties are little known for alternative dark matter models such as fuzzy dark matter (FDM). In this work, we assess for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ronald A. Remillard | First 5 Authors: Erin Barillier, Victoria Grinberg, David Horn, Michael A. Nowak, Ronald A. Remillard | Summary: 4U 1957+11 is a black hole candidate system that has been in a soft X-ray spectral state since its discovery. We present analyses of recent joint NICER and NuSTAR spectra, which are […]
