Kavli Affiliate: Brian Lantz | First 5 Authors: Rana X Adhikari, Odylio Aguiar, Koji Arai, Bryan Barr, Riccardo Bassiri | Summary: The detection of gravitational waves from compact binary mergers by LIGO has opened the era of gravitational wave astronomy, revealing a previously hidden side of the cosmos. To maximize the reach of the existing […]

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Enrico Barausse, Emanuele Berti, Thomas Hertog, Scott A. Hughes, Philippe Jetzer | Summary: In this paper, which is of programmatic rather than quantitative nature, we aim to further delineate and sharpen the future potential of the LISA mission in the area of fundamental physics. Given the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Brittany J. Fuzia, Lalitwadee Kawinwanichakij, Nicola Mehrtens, Simone Aiola, Nicholas Battaglia | Summary: We examine the stacked thermal Sunyaev-Zeltext{‘}dovich (SZ) signals for a sample of galaxy cluster candidates from the Spitzer-HETDEX Exploratory Large Area (SHELA) Survey, which are identified in combined optical and infrared SHELA data using […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert L. Byer | First 5 Authors: Zhexin Zhao, Dylan S. Black, R. Joel England, Tyler W. Hughes, Yu Miao | Summary: To be useful for most scientific and medical applications, compact particle accelerators will require much higher average current than enabled by current architectures. For this purpose, we propose a photonic crystal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Laura Schaefer | First 5 Authors: Edwin S. Kite, Bruce Fegley Jr., Laura Schaefer, Eric Ford, | Summary: Planets with 2 $R_{oplus}$ < $R$ < 3 $R_{oplus}$ and orbital period $<$100 d are abundant; these sub-Neptune exoplanets are not well understood. For example, $Kepler$ sub-Neptunes are likely to have deep magma oceans in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Yukinobu Toda, , , , | Summary: We show that the categorified cohomological Hall algebra structures on surfaces constructed by Porta-Sala descend to those on Donaldson-Thomas categories on local surfaces introduced in the author’s previous paper. A similar argument also shows that Pandharipande-Thomas categories on local surfaces […]
Kavli Affiliate: Peter Ford | First 5 Authors: Nicolas Lair, Clément Delgrange, David Mugisha, Jean-Michel Dussoux, Pierre-Yves Oudeyer | Summary: People are becoming increasingly comfortable using Digital Assistants (DAs) to interact with services or connected objects. However, for non-programming users, the available possibilities for customizing their DA are limited and do not include the possibility […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hiraku Nakajima | First 5 Authors: Hiraku Nakajima, , , , | Summary: We prove the conjecture by Gyenge, N’emethi and SzendrH{o}i in arXiv:1512.06844, arXiv:1512.06848 giving a formula of the generating function of Euler numbers of Hilbert schemes of points $operatorname{Hilb}^n(mathbb C^2/Gamma)$ on a simple singularity $mathbb C^2/Gamma$, where $Gamma$ is a finite […]
Kavli Affiliate: Aaron Roodman | First 5 Authors: Adam Snyder, Aaron Roodman, , , | Summary: The traditional characterization of charge transfer inefficiency (CTI) in charge-coupled devices (CCDs) can suffer from a number of deficiencies: CTI is often only calculated for a limited number of signal levels, CTI is calculated from a limited number of […]
