Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Hui Li, Mark Vogelsberger, Greg L. Bryan, Federico Marinacci, Laura V. Sales | Summary: Galaxy mergers are known to host abundant young massive cluster (YMC) populations, whose formation mechanism is still not well-understood. Here, we present a high-resolution galaxy merger simulation with explicit star formation and stellar […]
Kavli Affiliate: David H. Shoemaker | First 5 Authors: Matthew Evans, Rana X Adhikari, Chaitanya Afle, Stefan W. Ballmer, Sylvia Biscoveanu | Summary: This Horizon Study describes a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave observatory: Cosmic Explorer. With ten times the sensitivity of Advanced LIGO, Cosmic Explorer will push gravitational-wave astronomy towards the edge of the observable universe […]

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Lalitwadee Kawinwanichakij, John D. Silverman, Xuheng Ding, Angelo George, Ivana Damjanov | Summary: We present the galaxy size-mass ($R_{e}-M_{ast}$) distributions using a stellar-mass complete sample of $sim1.5$ million galaxies, covering $sim100$ deg$^2$, with $log(M_{ast}/M_{odot})>10.2~(9.2)$ over the redshift range $0.2<z<1.0$ $(z<0.6)$ from the second public data release […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey A. Harvey | First 5 Authors: John F. R. Duncan, Jeffrey A. Harvey, Brandon C. Rayhaun, , | Summary: As Mathieu moonshine is a special case of umbral moonshine, Thompson moonshine (in half-integral weight) is a special case of a family of similar relationships between finite groups and vector-valued modular forms of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Taiki Kawamuro, Claudio Ricci, Takuma Izumi, Masatoshi Imanishi, Shunsuke Baba | Summary: To investigate the role of active galactic nucleus (AGN) X-ray irradiation on the interstellar medium (ISM), we systematically analyzed Chandra and ALMA CO($J$=2-1) data for 26 ultra-hard X-ray ($>$ 10 keV) selected AGNs at redshifts […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Ziming Liu, Max Tegmark, , , | Summary: We present an automated method for finding hidden symmetries, defined as symmetries that become manifest only in a new coordinate system that must be discovered. Its core idea is to quantify asymmetry as violation of certain partial differential equations, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Yi-Fan Wang, Stephanie M. Brown, Lijing Shao, Wen Zhao, | Summary: The routine detection of gravitational-wave events from compact binary coalescences has allowed precise tests of gravity in strong field, dynamical field, and high energy regime. In this work, we report the results of testing gravitational-wave birefringence […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Xiao-Yue Ren, Ya-Hui Zhai, Jing Wang, , | Summary: Quantum critical behaviors induced by a putative quantum phase transition are vigilantly investigated, which separates a $d$-wave superconducting state and $d$-wave superconducting+$X$ state below the superconducting dome of the $d-$wave superconductors with tuning the non-thermal doping variable. Within […]
