Kavli Affiliate: C. M. Ignarra, T. A. Shutt, Daniel S. Akerib | First 5 Authors: J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder, S. K. Alsum | Summary: We estimate the amount of $^{37}$Ar produced in natural xenon via cosmic ray-induced spallation, an inevitable consequence of the transportation and storage of xenon […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. A. Shutt | First 5 Authors: J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder, S. K. Alsum | Summary: We estimate the amount of $^{37}$Ar produced in natural xenon via cosmic ray-induced spallation, an inevitable consequence of the transportation and storage of xenon on the Earth’s surface. We then […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Emily Moser, Nicholas Battaglia, Daisuke Nagai, Erwin Lau, Luis Fernando Machado Poletti Valle | Summary: The cycle of baryons through the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is important to understand in the context of galaxy formation and evolution. In this study we forecast constraints on the feedback processes heating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew M. Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Munazza K. Alam, James Kirk, Courtney D. Dressing, Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Kazumasa Ohno | Summary: We present a near-infrared transmission spectrum of the long period (P=542 days), temperate ($T_{eq}$=294 K) giant planet HIP 41378 f obtained with the Wide-Field Camera 3 (WFC3) instrument aboard the Hubble Space […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Simcha Brownson, Asa F. L. Bluck, Roberto Maiolino, Gareth C. Jones, | Summary: We develop a 2D inclined rotating disc model, which we apply to the stellar velocity maps of 1862 galaxies taken from the MaNGA survey (SDSS public Data Release 15). We use a random forest […]
Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Sayan Mandal, Neelima Sehgal, Toshiya Namikawa, , | Summary: The origin of the $mumathrm{G}$ magnetic fields observed in galaxies is unknown. One promising scenario is that magnetic fields generated during inflation, larger than 0.1 $mathrm{nG}$ on Mpc scales, were adiabatically compressed to $mumathrm{G}$ strengths in galaxies during […]
Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro, Jupiter Ding, Shy Genel, Stephanie Tonnesen, Valentina La Torre | Summary: Galaxies can be characterized by many internal properties such as stellar mass, gas metallicity, and star-formation rate. We quantify the amount of cosmological and astrophysical information that the internal properties of individual galaxies […]
Kavli Affiliate: Saul A. Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Gerald Handler, Rahul Jayaraman, Donald W. Kurtz, Jim Fuller, Saul A. Rappaport | Summary: The tidally tilted pulsators are a new type of oscillating star in close binary systems that have their pulsation axis in the orbital plane because of the tidal distortion caused by their […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Leander Thiele, Digvijay Wadekar, J. Colin Hill, Nicholas Battaglia, Jens Chluba | Summary: High-significance measurements of the monopole thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich CMB spectral distortions have the potential to tightly constrain poorly understood baryonic feedback processes. The sky-averaged Compton-y distortion and its relativistic correction are measures of the total […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yifei Ge, Ke Wang, , , | Summary: The interstellar medium has a highly filamentary and hierarchical structure, which may play a significant role in star formation. A systematical study on the large-scale filaments towards their physical parameters, distribution, structures and kinematics will inform us of what […]
