Magnetically driven accretion disc winds: the role of gas thermodynamics and comparison to ultra-fast outflows

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Weixiao Wang, De-Fu Bu, Feng Yuan, , | Summary: Winds are commonly observed in luminous active galactic nuclei (AGNs). A plausible model of those winds is magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) disc winds. In the case of disc winds from a thin accretion disc, isothermal or adiabatic assumption is usually […]

Bandwidth and Aliasing in the Microwave SQUID Multiplexer

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Cyndia Yu, Zeeshan Ahmed, Jake A. Connors, J. Mitch D’Ewart, Bradley Dober | Summary: The microwave SQUID multiplexer (umux) has enabled higher bandwidth or higher channel counts across a wide range of experiments in particle physics, astronomy, and spectroscopy. The large multiplexing factor coupled with recent commercial […]

ATOMS: ALMA Three-millimeter Observations of Massive Star-forming regions — XI. From inflow to infall in hub-filament systems

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Jian-Wen Zhou, Tie Liu, Neal J. Evans II, Guido Garay, Paul F. Goldsmith | Summary: We investigate the presence of hub-filament systems in a large sample of 146 active proto-clusters, using H$^{13}$CO$^{+}$ J=1-0 molecular line data obtained from the ATOMS survey. We find that filaments are ubiquitous […]

The Atari Disk, a Metal-Poor Stellar Population in the Disk System of the Milky Way

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Mohammad K. Mardini, Anna Frebel, Anirudh Chiti, Yohai Meiron, Kaley V. Brauer | Summary: We have developed a chemo-dynamical approach to assign 36,010 metal-poor SkyMapper stars to various Galactic stellar populations. Using two independent techniques (velocity and action space behavior), $Gaia$ EDR3 astrometry, and photometric metallicities, we […]

Cold Gas Reservoirs of Low and High Mass Central Galaxies Differ in Response to AGN Feedback

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Hong Guo, Michael G. Jones, Jing Wang, , | Summary: The growth of supermassive black holes, especially the associated state of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), is generally believed to be the key step in regulating star formation in massive galaxies. As the fuel of star formation, the […]
