On the synthesis of heavy nuclei in protomagnetar outflows and implications for ultra-high energy cosmic rays

Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Mukul Bhattacharya, Shunsaku Horiuchi, Kohta Murase, , | Summary: It has been suggested that strongly magnetised and rapidly rotating protoneutron stars (PNSs) may produce long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originating from stellar core collapse. We explore the steady-state properties and heavy element nucleosynthesis in neutrino-driven winds from […]

Provable properties of asymptotic safety in $f(R)$ approximation

Kavli Affiliate: R. Morris | First 5 Authors: Alex Mitchell, Tim R. Morris, Dalius Stulga, , | Summary: We study an $f(R)$ approximation to asymptotic safety, using a family of non-adaptive cutoffs, kept general to test for universality. Matching solutions on the four-dimensional sphere and hyperboloid, we prove properties of any such global fixed point […]

Video Text Tracking With a Spatio-Temporal Complementary Model

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Yuzhe Gao, Xing Li, Jiajian Zhang, Yu Zhou, Dian Jin | Summary: Text tracking is to track multiple texts in a video,and construct a trajectory for each text. Existing methodstackle this task by utilizing the tracking-by-detection frame-work, i.e., detecting the text instances in each frame andassociating the […]

KMT-2021-BLG-0912Lb: A microlensing super Earth around a K-type star

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Jennifer C. Yee, Weicheng Zang, Michael D. Albrow | Summary: The light curve of the microlensing event KMT-2021-BLG-0912 exhibits a very short anomaly relative to a single-lens single-source form. We investigate the light curve for the purpose of identifying the origin of […]

Development of MKIDs for measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background with the South Pole Telescope

Kavli Affiliate: Erik Shirokoff, Clarence Chang | First 5 Authors: Karia Dibert, Pete Barry, Zhaodi Pan, Adam Anderson, Bradford Benson | Summary: We present details of the design, simulation, and initial test results of prototype detectors for the fourth-generation receiver of the South Pole Telescope (SPT). Optimized for the detection of key secondary anisotropies of […]

Outer Automorphism Anomalies

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Brian Henning, Xiaochuan Lu, Tom Melia, Hitoshi Murayama, | Summary: We discuss anomalies associated with outer automorphisms in gauge theories based on classical groups, namely charge conjugations for $SU(N)$ and parities for $SO(2r)$. We emphasize the inequivalence between two versions of charge conjugation for $SU(N)$ symmetries, and […]

Universal fine grained asymptotics of weakly coupled Quantum Field Theory

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia | First 5 Authors: Weiguang Cao, Tom Melia, Sridip Pal, , | Summary: We give a proof that in any weakly coupled quantum field theory with a finite group global symmetry $mathrm{G}$, on a compact spatial manifold, at sufficiently high energy, the density of states $rho_alpha(E)$ for each irreducible representation $alpha$ […]
