Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Mikhail M. Ivanov, Oliver H. E. Philcox, Takahiro Nishimichi, Marko Simonović, Masahiro Takada | Summary: We study the information content of the angle-averaged (monopole) redshift space galaxy bispectrum. The main novelty of our approach is the use of a systematic tree-level perturbation theory model that includes galaxy […]
Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Francisco Rodríguez Montero, Sergio Martin-Alvarez, Debora Sijacki, Adrianne Slyz, Julien Devriendt | Summary: The cataclysmic explosions of massive stars as supernovae are one of the key ingredients of galaxy formation. However, their evolution is not well understood in the presence of magnetic fields or cosmic rays (CRs). […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yuan Zhou, Sisi Gu, Ke Wang, Gang Cao, Xuedong Hu | Summary: Tunability of an artificial quantum system is crucial to its capability to process quantum information. However, tunability usually poses significant demand on the design and fabrication of a device. In this work, we demonstrate that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Toshiya Namikawa, Anton Baleato Lizancos, Naomi Robertson, Blake D. Sherwin, Anthony Challinor | Summary: We introduce and validate a delensing framework for the Simons Observatory (SO), which will be used to improve constraints on inflationary gravitational waves (IGWs) by reducing the lensing noise in measurements of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Andrew W. Mann, Mackenna L. Wood, Stephen P. Schmidt, Madyson G. Barber, James E. Owen | Summary: Mature super-Earths and sub-Neptunes are predicted to be $simeq$Jovian radius when younger than 10 Myr. Thus, we expect to find 5-15$R_oplus$ planets around young stars even if their older counterparts […]
Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Misao Sasaki, Volodymyr Takhistov, Valeri Vardanyan, Ying-li Zhang, | Summary: Primordial black holes (PBHs) from the early Universe constitute an attractive dark matter candidate. First detections of black hole-neutron star (BH-NS) candidate gravitational wave events by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration, GW200105 and GW200115, already prompted speculations about non-astrophysical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, T. A. Sedrakyan, , , | Summary: We consider Lifshitz criticalities with dynamical exponent $z=2$ that emerge in a class of topological chains. There, such a criticality plays a fundamental role in describing transitions between symmetry-enriched conformal field theories (CFTs). We report that, at such […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: F. Abudinén, I. Adachi, R. Adak, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal | Summary: This paper reports a study of $B to K^{*}gamma$ decays using $62.8pm 0.6$ fb$^{-1}$ of data collected during 2019–2020 by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB $e^{+}e^{-}$ asymmetric-energy collider, corresponding to $(68.2 pm 0.8) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tomotake Matsumura | First 5 Authors: Takayuki Toda, Yuki Sakurai, Hirokazu Ishino, Tomotake Matsumura, Kunimoto Komatsu | Summary: The polarization modulator unit for the low-frequency telescope in LiteBIRD employs an achromatic half-wave plate (AHWP). It consists of five layers of a-cut sapphire plate, which are stacked based on a Pancharatnam recipe. In this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rebecca Masterson | First 5 Authors: Jaesub Hong, Richard P. Binzel, Branden Allen, David Guevel, Jonathan Grindlay | Summary: The REgolith X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (REXIS) instrument on board NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission to the asteroid Bennu is a Class-D student collaboration experiment designed to detect fluoresced X-rays from the asteroid’s surface to measure elemental […]
