TOI-2109b: An Ultrahot Gas Giant on a 16 hr Orbit

Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Ian Wong, Avi Shporer, George Zhou, Daniel Kitzmann, Thaddeus D. Komacek | Summary: We report the discovery of an ultrahot Jupiter with an extremely short orbital period of $0.67247414,pm,0.00000028$ days ($sim$16 hr). The $1.347 pm 0.047$ $R_{rm Jup}$ planet, initially identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey […]

Magnetospheric curvature radiation by bunches as emission mechanism for repeating fast radio bursts

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Wei-Yang Wang, Yuan-Pei Yang, Chen-Hui Niu, Renxin Xu, Bing Zhang | Summary: Coherent curvature radiation as the radiation mechanism for fast radio bursts (FRBs) has been discussed since FRBs were discovered. We study the spectral and polarization properties of repeating FRBs within the framework of coherent curvature […]

HSC Year 1 cosmology results with the minimal bias method: HSC$times$BOSS galaxy-galaxy weak lensing and BOSS galaxy clustering

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Sunao Sugiyama, Masahiro Takada, Hironao Miyatake, Takahiro Nishimichi, Masato Shirasaki | Summary: We present cosmological parameter constraints from a blinded joint analysis of galaxy-galaxy weak lensing, $Delta!Sigma(R)$, and projected correlation function, $w_mathrm{p}(R)$, measured from the first-year HSC (HSC-Y1) data and SDSS spectroscopic galaxies over $0.15<z<0.7$. We use […]

Electron Pulse Compression with Optical Beat Note

Kavli Affiliate: Robert L. Byer | First 5 Authors: Zhexin Zhao, Kenneth J. Leedle, Dylan S. Black, Olav Solgaard, Robert L. Byer | Summary: Compressing electron pulses is important in many applications of electron beam systems. In this study, we propose to use optical beat notes to compress electron pulses. The beat frequency is chosen […]

CamLiFlow: Bidirectional Camera-LiDAR Fusion for Joint Optical Flow and Scene Flow Estimation

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Haisong Liu, Tao Lu, Yihui Xu, Jia Liu, Wenjie Li | Summary: In this paper, we study the problem of jointly estimating the optical flow and scene flow from synchronized 2D and 3D data. Previous methods either employ a complex pipeline which splits the joint task into […]

Unveiling the Fermi Bubbles origin with MeV photon telescopes

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Digel | First 5 Authors: Michela Negro, Henrike Fleischhack, Andreas Zoglauer, Seth Digel, Marco Ajello | Summary: The Fermi Bubbles (FB) are a pair of large-scale ellipsoidal structures extending above and below the Galactic plane almost symmetrically aligned with the Galactic Center. After more than 10 years since their discovery, their nature […]

Broken Conformal Window

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Hitoshi Murayama, Bea Noether, Digvijay Roy Varier, , | Summary: We show that the edges of the conformal window of supersymmetric $SU(N_c)$ QCD, perturbed by Anomaly Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking (AMSB), break chiral symmetry. We do so by perturbatively expanding around Banks–Zaks fixed points and taking advantage of […]

Evidence for the connection between star formation rate and evolutionary phases of quasars

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Zhifu Chen, Zhicheng He, Luis C. Ho, Qiusheng Gu, Tinggui Wang | Summary: Both theory and observations suggest that outflows driven by an active central supermassive black hole (SMBH) has a feedback effect on shaping the global properties of the host galaxy. However, whether feedback from […]
