Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport, Lorne Nelson, Donald W. Kurtz, George Dufresne | Summary: Using the novel TESS 20-sec cadence data, we have discovered an unusual combination of pulsating stars in what we infer to be a binary system. The primary is a standard $delta$ Scuti star with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simeon Hellerman | First 5 Authors: Simeon Hellerman, Domenico Orlando, Vito Pellizzani, Susanne Reffert, Ian Swanson | Summary: The unitary Fermi gas, by virtue of its description as a nonrelativistic conformal field theory, has proven an interesting system by which the quantum properties of CFT can be held to experimental verification. Here, we […]

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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

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 […]
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 […]
