Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Vijay Varma, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Maximiliano Isi, Will M. Farr, Salvatore Vitale | Summary: Binary black hole spin measurements from gravitational wave observations can reveal the binary’s evolutionary history. In particular, the spin orientations of the component black holes within the orbital plane, $phi_1$ and $phi_2$, can be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Vijay Varma, Maximiliano Isi, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Will M. Farr, Salvatore Vitale | Summary: Binary black hole spins are among the key observables for gravitational wave astronomy. Among the spin parameters, their orientations within the orbital plane, $phi_1$, $phi_2$ and $Delta phi=phi_1-phi_2$, are critical for understanding the prevalence […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Ian Holst, Dan Hooper, Gordan Krnjaic, , | Summary: The long-standing $4.2 , sigma$ muon $g-2$ anomaly may be the result of a new particle species which could also couple to dark matter and mediate its annihilations in the early universe. In models where both muons and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Pau Amaro Seoane, Manuel Arca Sedda, Stanislav Babak, Christopher P. L. Berry, Emanuele Berti | Summary: The science objectives of the LISA mission have been defined under the implicit assumption of a 4 yr continuous data stream. Based on the performance of LISA Pathfinder, it is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Rainer Beck, Susan E. Clark, Annie Hughes, Alejandro S. Borlaff | Summary: Galactic bars are frequent in disk galaxies and they may support the transfer of matter towards the central engine of active nuclei. The barred galaxy NGC 1097 has magnetic forces controlling the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: The CHIME/FRB Collaboration, Bridget C. Andersen, Kevin Bandura, Mohit Bhardwaj, P. J. Boyle | Summary: The origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs), millisecond-duration flashes of radio waves that are visible at distances of billions of light-years, remains an open astrophysical question. Here we report the detection […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: D. Kandel, Roger W. Romani, Hongjun An, , | Summary: In a multi-orbit (100 ks) $mathrm{it XMM-Newton}$ exposure of the original black widow pulsar, PSR J1959+2048, we measure the strong orbital modulation caused by intrabinary shock (IBS) emission. The IBS light curve peak appears asymmetric, which […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: This paper develops a data-based approach to the closed-loop output feedback control of nonlinear dynamical systems with a partial nonlinear observation model. We propose an information state based approach to rigorously transform the partially observed problem into a fully observed problem […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey J. McMahon | First 5 Authors: Sumit Dahal, John W. Appel, Rahul Datta, Michael K. Brewer, Aamir Ali | Summary: The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) observes the polarized cosmic microwave background (CMB) over the angular scales of 1$^circ lesssim theta leq$ 90$^circ$ with the aim of characterizing primordial gravitational waves […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Jue Jiang, Weiwei Zhao, Fei Wang, Renzhong Du, Ludi Miao | Summary: When a ferromagnet is placed in contact with a superconductor, owing to incompatible spin order, the Cooper pairs from the superconductor cannot survive more than one or two nanometers inside the ferromagnet. This is confirmed […]
