Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Hajime Fukuda, Satoshi Shirai, , , | Summary: The QCD axion is a promising candidate of the dark matter. In this paper, we discuss elastic scattering processes between nucleons and the QCD axion dark matter. We point out that the cross section can be enhanced by more […]
Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Mohammed El Mufti, Peter P. Plavchan, Howard Isaacson, Bryson L. Cale, Dax L. Feliz | Summary: We validate the presence of a two-planet system orbiting the 0.2–1.4 Gyr K4 dwarf TOI 560 (HD 73583). The system consists of an inner moderately eccentric transiting mini-Neptune (TOI 560 b, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Ping Chen, Subo Dong, Chris Ashall, S. Benetti, D. Bersier | Summary: Using data from the Complete Nearby ($z_{host}<0.02$) sample of Type Ia Supernovae (CNIa0.02), we discover a linear relation between two parameters derived from the $B-V$ color curves of Type Ia supernovae: the "color stretch" $s_{BV}$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Ewan S Douglas, John Debes, Bertrand Mennesson, Bijan Nemati, Jaren Ashcraft | Summary: Exozodiacal dust, warm debris from comets and asteroids in and near the habitable zone of stellar systems, reveals the physical processes that shape planetary systems. Scattered light from this dust is also a source […]
Kavli Affiliate: Troy A. Porter | First 5 Authors: Troy A. Porter, Gudlaugur Johannesson, Igor V. Moskalenko, , | Summary: The past decade has brought impressive advances in astrophysics of cosmic rays (CRs) and multi-wavelength astronomy — thanks to the new instrumentation launched into space and built on the ground. Understanding the astrophysical backgrounds to […]

Modern technologies employed by those […]
Kavli Affiliate: Brian Lantz | First 5 Authors: D. H. Shoemaker, Stefan Ballmer, Matteo Barsuglia, E. Berger, Emanuele Berti | Summary: The workshop Dawn VI: Next Generation Observatories}took place online over three days, 5-7 October, 2021. More than 200 physicists and astronomers attended to contribute to, and learn from, a discussion of next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave […]

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Shi Pi, Misao Sasaki, , , | Summary: In the curvaton scenario, the curvature perturbation is generated after inflation at the curvaton decay, which may have a prominent non-Gaussian effect. For a model with a non-trivial kinetic term, an enhanced curvature perturbation on a small scale can […]
