Measurement of $CP$ asymmetries in $B^0to φK^0_S$ decays with Belle II

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed | Summary: We present a measurement of time-dependent rate asymmetries in $B^0to phi K^0_S$ decays to search for non-standard-model physics in $bto q overline{q}s$ transitions. The data sample is collected with the Belle II detector at […]

Photometric observations of flares on AD Leo from GWAC-F30 and TESS

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jian-Ying Bai, Jing Wang, Hua-Li Li, Li-Ping Xin, Guang-Wei Li | Summary: We observed active M dwarf star AD Leo for 146 hr in photometry by GWAC-F30 and also analyzed 528-hr photometric data of the star from TESS. A total of 9 and 70 flares are detected […]

AdS3 Orbifolds, BTZ Black Holes, and Holography

Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Emil J. Martinec, , , , | Summary: Conical defects of the form $(AdS_3times S^3)/Z_k$ have an exact orbifold description in worldsheet string theory, which we derive from their known presentation as gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. The configuration of strings and fivebranes sourcing this geometry is well-understood, […]

The Effect of Dust Evolution and Traps on Inner Disk Water Enrichment

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Anusha Kalyaan, Paola Pinilla, Sebastiaan Krijt, Andrea Banzatti, Giovanni Rosotti | Summary: Substructures in protoplanetary disks can act as dust traps that shape the radial distribution of pebbles. By blocking the passage of pebbles, the presence of gaps in disks may have a profound effect on […]

BU Canis Minoris — the Most Compact Known Flat Doubly Eclipsing Quadruple System

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Theodor Pribulla, Tamás Borkovits, Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport, Tibor Mitnyan | Summary: We have found that the 2+2 quadruple star system BU CMi is currently the most compact quadruple system known, with an extremely short outer period of only 121 days. The previous record holder was TIC […]

X-ray metal line emission from the hot circumgalactic medium: probing the effects of supermassive black hole feedback

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Nhut Truong, Annalisa Pillepich, Dylan Nelson, Ákos Bogdán, Gerrit Schellenberger | Summary: We derive predictions from state-of-the-art cosmological galaxy simulations for the spatial distribution of the hot circumgalactic medium (CGM, ${rm [0.1-1]R_{200c}}$) through its emission lines in the X-ray soft band ($[0.3-1.3]$ keV). In particular, we compare […]

EIGER IV: The cool 10$^4$K circumgalactic environment of high-$z$ galaxies reveals remarkably efficient IGM enrichment

Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Rongmon Bordoloi, Robert A. Simcoe, Jorryt Matthee, Daichi Kashino, Ruari Mackenzie | Summary: We report new observations of the cool diffuse gas around 29, $2.3<z<6.3$ galaxies, using deep JWST/NIRCam slitless grism spectroscopy around the sightline to the quasar J0100+2802. The galaxies span a stellar mass range […]
