X-ray Observations of the Peculiar Cepheid V473 Lyr Identify A Low-Mass Companion

Kavli Affiliate: Moritz Guenther | First 5 Authors: Nancy Remage Evans, Ignazio Pillitteri, Laszlo Molnar, Laszlo Szabados, Emese Plachy | Summary: V473 Lyr is a classical Cepheid which is unique in having substantial amplitude variations with a period of approximately 3.3 years, thought to be similar to the Blazhko variations in RR Lyrae stars. We […]

Mitigating the impact of fiber assignment on clustering measurements from deep galaxy redshift surveys

Kavli Affiliate: Naoyuki Tamura | First 5 Authors: Tomomi Sunayama, Masahiro Takada, Martin Reinecke, Ryu Makiya, Takahiro Nishimichi | Summary: We examine the impact of fiber assignment on clustering measurements from fiber-fed spectroscopic galaxy surveys. We identify new effects which were absent in previous, relatively shallow galaxy surveys such as Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey . […]

Measurement of Beam-Correlated Background Neutrons from the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam in ANNIE Phase-I

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vagins | First 5 Authors: Asheley R. Back, John F. Beacom, Tomaso Boschi, Daniel Carber, Erika Catano-Mur | Summary: The Accelerator Neutrino Neutron Interaction Experiment (ANNIE) aims to make a unique measurement of neutron yield from neutrino-nucleus interactions and to perform R&D for the next generation of water-based neutrino detectors. In this […]

Resolving the FU Ori System with ALMA: Interacting Twin Disks?

Kavli Affiliate: David Principe | First 5 Authors: Sebastián Pérez, Antonio Hales, Hauyu Baobab Liu, Zhaohuan Zhu, Simon Casassus | Summary: FU Orionis objects are low-mass pre-main sequence stars characterized by dramatic outbursts of several magnitudes in brightness. These outbursts are linked to episodic accretion events in which stars gain a significant portion of their […]
