Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Zhuo Li, Jindian Liu, Liu Yan, Beichuan Zhang, Peng Luo | Summary: Name lookup is a key technology for the forwarding plane of content router in Named Data Networking (NDN). To realize the efficient name lookup, what counts is deploying a highperformance index in content routers. So […]
Kavli Affiliate: Igor V. Moskalenko | First 5 Authors: Mikhail A. Malkov, Igor V. Moskalenko, , , | Summary: Significant progress in cosmic ray (CR) studies was achieved over the past decade. Particularly important are precise measurements of primary and secondary species in the TV rigidity domain that show a bump in the spectra of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Gabriele Franciolini, Vishal Baibhav, Valerio De Luca, Ken K. Y. Ng, Kaze W. K. Wong | Summary: With several dozen binary black hole events detected by LIGO/Virgo to date and many more expected in the next few years, gravitational-wave astronomy is shifting from individual-event analyses to population […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Y. Homayouni, Megan R. Sturm, Jonathan R. Trump, Keith Horne, C. J. Grier | Summary: We present accretion-disk structure measurements from UV-optical reverberation mapping observations of a sample of eight quasars at 0.24<z<0.85. Ultraviolet photometry comes from two cycles of Hubble Space Telescope monitoring, accompanied by […]
Kavli Affiliate: John E. Carlstrom | First 5 Authors: Ramesh Narayan, Daniel C. M. Palumbo, Michael D. Johnson, Zachary Gelles, Elizabeth Himwich | Summary: Synchrotron radiation from hot gas near a black hole results in a polarized image. The image polarization is determined by effects including the orientation of the magnetic field in the emitting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gabor Furesz | First 5 Authors: Danielle Frostig, John W. Baker, Joshua Brown, Richard S. Burruss, Kristin Clark | Summary: The Wide-field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) is a 1×1 degree infrared survey telescope under development at MIT and Caltech, and slated for commissioning at Palomar Observatory in 2021. WINTER is a seeing-limited infrared […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jonathan L. Rosner | First 5 Authors: Marek Karliner, Jonathan L. Rosner, , , | Summary: We comment on the recent evidence by the LHCb Collaboration for a structure in the $J/psi Lambda$ final state produced in the decay $Xi^-_b to J/psi Lambda K^-$, with minimal quark content $c bar c u d […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Manuel Arca Sedda, Christopher P L Berry, Karan Jani, Pau Amaro-Seoane, Pierre Auclair | Summary: Since 2015 the gravitational-wave observations of LIGO and Virgo have transformed our understanding of compact-object binaries. In the years to come, ground-based gravitational-wave observatories such as LIGO, Virgo, and their successors will […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Yifan Zhou, Brendan P. Bowler, Kevin R. Wagner, Glenn Schneider, Dániel Apai | Summary: Recent discoveries of young exoplanets within their natal disks offer exciting opportunities to study ongoing planet formation. In particular, a planet’s mass accretion rate can be constrained by observing the accretion-induced excess […]
Kavli Affiliate: Troy A. Porter | First 5 Authors: Guðlaugur Jóhannesson, Troy A. Porter, , , | Summary: Cosmic-ray (CR) sources temporarily enhance the relativistic particle density in their vicinity over the background distribution accumulated from the Galaxy-wide past injection activity and propagation. If individual sources are close enough to the solar system, their localised […]
