Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Sara Seager, Janusz J. Petkowski, Christopher E. Carr, David H. Grinspoon, Bethany L. Ehlmann | Summary: Finding evidence of extraterrestrial life would be one of the most profound scientific discoveries ever made, advancing humanity into a new epoch of cosmic awareness. The Venus Life Finder (VLF) missions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Ying-Hsuan Lin, Masaki Okada, Sahand Seifnashri, Yuji Tachikawa, | Summary: It is known that the asymptotic density of states of a 2d CFT in an irreducible representation $rho$ of a finite symmetry group $G$ is proportional to $(dimrho)^2$. We show how this statement can be generalized when […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Charles | First 5 Authors: Ke Fang, Matthew Kerr, Roger Blandford, Henrike Fleischhack, Eric Charles | Summary: The existence of a "knee" at energy ~1 PeV in the cosmic-ray spectrum suggests the presence of Galactic PeV proton accelerators called "PeVatrons". Supernova Remnant (SNR) G106.3+2.7 is a prime candidate for one of these. […]

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Carolina Cuesta-Lazaro, Takahiro Nishimichi, Yosuke Kobayashi, Cheng-Zong Ruan, Alexander Eggemeier | Summary: In this series of papers, we present a simulation-based model for the non-linear clustering of galaxies based on separate modelling of clustering in real space and velocity statistics. In the first paper, we present an […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Charles | First 5 Authors: Regina Caputo, Marco Ajello, Carolyn Kierans, Jeremy Perkins, Judith Racusin | Summary: The All-sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory eXplorer (AMEGO-X) is designed to identify and characterize gamma rays from extreme explosions and accelerators. The main science themes include: supermassive black holes and their connections to neutrinos and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Caeley V. Pittman, Catherine C. Espaillat, Connor E. Robinson, Thanawuth Thanathibodee, Nuria Calvet | Summary: The coevolution of T Tauri stars and their surrounding protoplanetary disks dictates the timescales of planet formation. In this paper, we present magnetospheric accretion and inner disk wall model fits to […]

Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | First 5 Authors: Peter Bult, Diego Altamirano, Zaven Arzoumanian, Deepto Chakrabarty, Jérôme Chenevez | Summary: We present the discovery of 528.6 Hz pulsations in the new X-ray transient MAXI J1816-195. Using NICER, we observed the first recorded transient outburst from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary MAXI J1816-195 over a […]
