Analysis of Crab X-ray Polarization using Deeper IXPE Observations

Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: Josephine Wong, Tsunefumi Mizuno, Niccoló Bucciantini, Roger W. Romani, Yi-Jung Yang | Summary: We present Crab X-ray polarization measurements using IXPE data with a total exposure of 300ks, three times more than the initial 2022 discovery paper. Polarization is detected in three times more pulsar phase bins, […]

Edge Optical Effect as Probe of Chiral Topological Superconductor

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Linghao Huang, Jing Wang, , , | Summary: We study the optical effect of chiral topological superconductors in two dimensions. The linear optical response from chiral Bogoliubov edge modes in clean superconductors has in-gap resonances, which is originated from the transitions within the edge particle-hole pair bands. […]

Improved Nonlocality Certification via Bouncing between Bell Operators and Inequalities

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Weikang Li, Mengyao Hu, Ke Wang, Shibo Xu, Zhide Lu | Summary: Bell nonlocality is an intrinsic feature of quantum mechanics, which can be certified via the violation of Bell inequalities. It is therefore a fundamental question to certify Bell nonlocality from experimental data. Here, we present […]

When to Sweat the Small Stuff: identifying the most informative events from ground-based gravitational-wave detectors

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Reed Essick, Daniel E. Holz, , , | Summary: We explore scaling relations for the information carried by individual events, and how that information accumulates in catalogs like those from ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. For a variety of situations, the larger number of quiet/distant signals dominates the […]

Particle Conversions Beyond the WKB Approximation and Solar-Induced Gravitational Waves from Dark Photon Dark Matter

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Tengyu Ai, Yuxuan He, Jia Liu, Xiaolin Ma, Xiao-Ping Wang | Summary: We investigate the conversion of kinetic mixing dark photon dark matter into gravitational waves within the magnetic field of the Sun. Our study reveals that the WKB approximation is invalid in this scenario. We derive […]

X-ray and multiwavelength polarization of Mrk 501 from 2022 to 2023

Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Chien-Ting J. Chen, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei, Dawoon E. Kim, Laura Di Gesu | Summary: We present multiwavelength polarization measurements of the luminous blazar Mrk~501 over a 14-month period. The 2–8 keV X-ray polarization was measured with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) with six 100-ks […]
