Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Justin M. Wittrock, Stefan Dreizler, Michael A. Reefe, Brett M. Morris, Peter P. Plavchan | Summary: We explore the transit timing variations (TTVs) of the young (22 Myr) nearby AU Mic planetary system. For AU Mic b, we introduce three Spitzer (4.5 $mu$m) transits, five TESS transits, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Saul A. Rappaport, Tamas Borkovits, Robert Gagliano | Summary: We present a catalog of 97 uniformly-vetted candidates for quadruple star systems. The candidates were identified in TESS Full Frame Image data from Sectors 1 through 42 through a combination of machine […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Carolina Andonie, Claudio Ricci, Stéphane Paltani, Patricia Arévalo, Ezequiel Treister | Summary: Reprocessed X-ray emission in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) can provide fundamental information about the circumnuclear environments of supermassive black holes. Recent mid-infrared studies have shown evidence of an extended dusty structure perpendicular to the torus […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Sung-Yong Yoon, Gregory J. Herczeg, Jeong-Eun Lee, Ho-Gyu Lee, Doug Johnstone | Summary: Observed changes in protostellar brightness can be complicated to interpret. In our JCMT~Transient monitoring survey, we discovered that a young binary protostar, HOPS 373, is undergoing a modest $30%$ brightness increase at 850 […]
Kavli Affiliate: R. Morris | First 5 Authors: Jun-Hui Zhao, Mark R. Morris, W. M. Goss, , | Summary: Using the JVLA, we explored the Galactic center (GC) with a resolution of 0.05" at 33.0 and 44.6 GHz. We detected 64 hyper-compact radio sources (HCRs) in the central parsec. The dense group of HCRs can […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Hui Sun, He-Yang Liu, Haiwu Pan, Zhu Liu, Dennis Alp | Summary: A dozen X-ray supernova shock breakout (SN SBO) candidates were reported recently based on XMM-Newton archival data, which increased the X-ray selected SN SBO sample by an order of magnitude. Assuming they are genuine SN […]
Kavli Affiliate: Catherine E. Grant | First 5 Authors: Fabio Gastaldello, Martino Marelli, Silvano Molendi, Iacopo Bartalucci, Patrick Kühl | Summary: We analyzed the unexposed to the sky outFOV region of the MOS2 detector on board XMM-Newton covering 15 years of data amounting to 255 Ms. We show convincing evidence that the origin of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Stephanie O’Neil, Josh Borrow, Mark Vogelsberger, Benedikt Diemer, | Summary: We explore how the splashback radius ($R_{rm sp}$) of galaxy clusters, measured using the number density of the subhalo population, changes based on various selection criteria using the IllustrisTNG cosmological galaxy formation simulation. We identify $R_{rm sp}$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chiaki Hikage | First 5 Authors: Yuting Wang, Gong-Bo Zhao, Kazuya Koyama, Will J. Percival, Ryuichi Takahashi | Summary: The reconstruction method was proposed more than a decade ago to boost the signal of baryonic acoustic oscillations measured in galaxy redshift surveys, which is one of key probes for dark energy. After moving […]
