Kavli Affiliate: Mark Schattenburg | First 5 Authors: Norbert S. Schulz, Glenn Allen, Mark W. Bautz, Claude C. Canizares, John Davis | Summary: Understanding the origins and distribution of matter in the Universe is one of the most important quests in physics and astronomy. Themes range from astro-particle physics to chemical evolution in the Galaxy […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stuart Marshall | First 5 Authors: Željko Ivezić, Steven M. Kahn, J. Anthony Tyson, Bob Abel, Emily Acosta | Summary: (Abridged) We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). A vast array of science will be enabled by a single wide-deep-fast sky survey, […]

Kavli Affiliate: John Belcher | First 5 Authors: John Belcher, Carolann Koleci, , , | Summary: Animated textures can be used to visualize the spatial structure and temporal evolution of vector fields at high spatial resolution. The animation requires two time-dependent vector fields. The first of these vector fields determines the spatial structure to be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Steven Kahn | First 5 Authors: Chen Zheng, Roger W. Romani, Masao Sako, John Marriner, Bruce Bassett | Summary: This paper presents spectroscopy of supernovae discovered in the first season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey. This program searches for and measures multi-band light curves of supernovae in the redshift range […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tom Chang | First 5 Authors: Tom Chang, Cheng-chin Wu, , , | Summary: We describe a new method that is both physically explicable and quantitatively accurate in describing the multifractal characteristics of intermittent events based on groupings of rank-ordered fluctuations. The generic nature of such rank-ordered spectrum leads it to a natural […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tomiyoshi Haruyama | First 5 Authors: Takayuki Tomaru, Masao Tokunari, Kazuaki Kuroda, Takashi Uchiyama, Akira Okutomi | Summary: A large heat load caused by thermal radiation through a metal shield pipe was observed in a cooling test of a cryostat for a prototype of a cryogenic interferometric gravitational wave detector. The heat load […]
