Monte Carlo simulations of neutrino and charged lepton propagation in the Earth with nuPyProp

Kavli Affiliate: Angela Olinto | First 5 Authors: Sameer Patel, Mary Hall Reno, Yosui Akaike, Luis Anchordoqui, Douglas Bergman | Summary: An accurate modeling of neutrino flux attenuation and the distribution of leptons they produce in transit through the Earth is an essential component to determine neutrino flux sensitivities of underground, sub-orbital and space-based detectors. […]

SNEWPY: A Data Pipeline from Supernova Simulations to Neutrino Signals

Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Amanda L. Baxter, Segev BenZvi, Joahan Castaneda Jaimes, Alexis Coleiro, Marta Colomer Molla | Summary: Current neutrino detectors will observe hundreds to thousands of neutrinos from a Galactic supernovae, and future detectors will increase this yield by an order of magnitude or more. With such a data […]

Deep exploration of the planets HR 8799 b, c, and d with moderate resolution spectroscopy

Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Quinn M. Konopacky, Travis Barman, Bruce Macintosh, Kielan K. Wilcomb | Summary: The four directly imaged planets orbiting the star HR 8799 are an ideal laboratory to probe atmospheric physics and formation models. We present more than a decade’s worth of Keck/OSIRIS observations of these […]

Further evidence of shocks in the first-overtone RR Lyrae pulsators: first detection of shock-triggered magnesium emissions

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiao-Wei Duan, Weijia Sun, Xiaodian Chen, Licai Deng, Huawei Zhang | Summary: The behavior of the shock wave in the atmosphere of the non-fundamental mode RR Lyrae pulsator remains a mystery. In this work, we firstly report a blueshifted Mg triplet emission in continuous spectroscopic observations for […]

Investigating the Nature of the Luminous Ambiguous Nuclear Transient ASASSN-17jz

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Jack M. M. Neustadt, Patrick J. Vallely, Katie Auchettl, Jason T. Hinkle | Summary: We present observations of the extremely luminous but ambiguous nuclear transient (ANT) ASASSN-17jz, spanning roughly 1200 days of the object’s evolution. ASASSN-17jz was discovered by the All-Sky Automated Survey […]

Dark matter transient annihilations in the early Universe

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Katsuya Hashino, Jia Liu, Xiao-Ping Wang, Ke-Pan Xie, | Summary: The cosmological evolution can modify the dark matter (DM) properties in the early Universe to be vastly different from the properties today. Therefore, the relation between the relic abundance and the DM constraints today needs to be […]

Categorical wall-crossing formula for Donaldson-Thomas theory on the resolved conifold

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Yukinobu Toda, , , , | Summary: We prove wall-crossing formula for categorical Donaldson-Thomas invariants on the resolved conifold, which categorifies Nagao-Nakajima wall-crossing formula for numerical DT invariants on it. The categorified Hall products are used to describe the wall-crossing formula as semiorthogonal decompositions. A successive application […]

Self-Similarity of $k$-Nearest Neighbor Distributions in Scale-Free Simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Abel | First 5 Authors: Lehman H. Garrison, Tom Abel, Daniel J. Eisenstein, , | Summary: We use the $k$-nearest neighbor probability distribution function ($k$NN-PDF, Banerjee & Abel 2021) to assess convergence in a scale-free $N$-body simulation. Compared to our previous two-point analysis, the $k$NN-PDF allows us to quantify our results in […]

Subsurface Carbon-Induced Local Charge of Copper for On-Surface Displacement Reaction

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Shaoshan Wang, Pengcheng Ding, Zhuo Li, Cristina Mattioli, Wenlong E | Summary: Transition metal carbides have sparked unprecedented enthusiasm as high-performance catalysts in recent years. Still, the catalytic properties of copper (Cu) carbide remain unexplored. By introducing subsurface carbon (C) to Cu(111), displacement reaction of proton in […]

On-Surface Decarboxylation Coupling Facilitated by Lock-to-Unlock Variation of Molecules upon the Reaction

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Shaoshan Wang, Zhuo Li, Pengcheng Ding, Cristina Mattioli, Wujun Huang | Summary: On-surface synthesis (OSS) involving relatively high energy barriers remains challenging due to a typical dilemma: firm molecular anchor is required to prevent molecular desorption upon the reaction, whereas sufficient lateral mobility is crucial for subsequent […]
