Damped Ly-alpha Absorbers in Star-forming Galaxies at z < 0.15 Detected with the Hubble Space Telescope and Implications for Galaxy Evolution

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Donald G. York | First 5 Authors: Varsha P. Kulkarni, David V. Bowen, Lorrie A. Straka, Donald G. York, Neeraj Gupta | Summary: We report {it HST} COS spectroscopy of 10 quasars with foreground star-forming galaxies at 0.02$<$$z$$<$ 0.14 within impact parameters of $sim$1-7 kpc. We detect damped/sub-damped Ly$alpha$ absorption in 100$%$ of […]

In-flight gain monitoring of SPIDER’s transition-edge sensor arrays

Posted by Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: C. L. Kuo | First 5 Authors: J. P. Filippini, A. E. Gambrel, A. S. Rahlin, E. Y. Young, P. A. R. Ade | Summary: Experiments deploying large arrays of transition-edge sensors (TESs) often require a robust method to monitor gain variations with minimal loss of observing time. We propose a sensitive and […]

Galactic Winds across the Gas-Rich Merger Sequence: I. Highly Ionized N V and O VI Outflows in the QUEST Quasars

Posted by klaurent Cambridge

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Sylvain Veilleux, David S. N. Rupke, Weizhe Liu, Anthony To, Margaret Trippe | Summary: This program is part of QUEST (Quasar/ULIRG Evolutionary Study) and seeks to examine the gaseous environments of z < 0.3 quasars and ULIRGs as a function of host galaxy properties and age across […]

Recent advances in branching problems of representations

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiyuki Kobayashi | First 5 Authors: Toshiyuki Kobayashi, , , , | Summary: How does an irreducible representation of a group behave when restricted to a subgroup? This is part of branching problems, which are one of the fundamental problems in representation theory, and also interact naturally with other fields of mathematics. This […]

TOI-1842b: A Transiting Warm Saturn Undergoing Re-Inflation around an Evolving Subgiant

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Robert A. Wittenmyer, Jake T. Clark, Trifon Trifonov, Brett C. Addison, Duncan J. Wright | Summary: The imminent launch of space telescopes designed to probe the atmospheres of exoplanets has prompted new efforts to prioritise the thousands of transiting planet candidates for follow-up characterisation. We report the […]

Constraints on the production of phosphine by Venusian volcanoes

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: William Bains, Oliver Shorttle, Sukrit Ranjan, Paul B. Rimmer, Janusz J. Petkowski | Summary: The initial reports of the presence of phosphine in the cloud decks of Venus has led to the suggestion that volcanism was the source of phosphine, through volcanic phosphides ejected into the clouds. […]

H-alpha emission in local galaxies: star formation, time variability and the diffuse ionized gas

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Sandro Tacchella, Aaron Smith, Rahul Kannan, Federico Marinacci, Lars Hernquist | Summary: The nebular recombination line H$alpha$ is widely used as a star-formation rate (SFR) indicator in the local and high-redshift Universe. We present a detailed H$alpha$ radiative transfer study of high-resolution isolated Milky-Way and Large Magellanic […]

Priors on red galaxy stochasticity from hybrid effective field theory

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Nickolas Kokron, Joseph DeRose, Shi-Fan Chen, Martin White, Risa H. Wechsler | Summary: We investigate the stochastic properties of typical red galaxy samples in a controlled numerical environment. We use Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) modelling to create mock realizations of three separate bright red galaxy samples […]
