Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Eric Burns, Christopher L. Fryer, Ivan Agullo, Jennifer Andrews, Elias Aydi | Summary: Astrophysical observations of the cosmos allow us to probe extreme physics and answer foundational questions on our universe. Modern astronomy is increasingly operating under a holistic approach, probing the same question with multiple […]

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Hanlin Song, Han Yan, Yacheng Kang, Xian Chen, Junjie Zhao | Summary: New concepts for observing the gravitational waves (GWs) using a detector on the Moon, such as the Lunar Gravitational-wave Antenna (LGWA), have gained increasing attention. By utilizing the Moon as a giant antenna, the LGWA […]
Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Wei-Yang Wang, Xiaohui Liu, Dongzi Li, Bing Zhang, Chen-Hui Niu | Summary: Frequency-dependent polarization properties provide crucial insights into the radiation mechanisms and magnetic environments of fast radio bursts (FRBs). We explore an analytical solution of radiative transfer of the polarization properties of FRBs as a strong […]

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Xiao Cao, Yan-Mei Chen, Yong Shi, Junfeng Wang, Zhi-Jie Zhou | Summary: Dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with comparable masses are commonly witnessed among the major merged galaxies with interaction remnants. Considering almost every massive galaxy is associated with multiple dwarf satellites around it, minor mergers […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Dávid Puskás, Sandro Tacchella, Charlotte Simmonds, Kevin Hainline, Francesco D’Eugenio | Summary: We present a comprehensive analysis of galaxy close-pair fractions and major merger rates to evaluate the importance of mergers in the hierarchical growth of galaxies over cosmic time. This study focuses on the previously poorly […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: David D. Baek, Ziming Liu, Riya Tyagi, Max Tegmark, | Summary: In this paper, we introduce **harmonic loss** as an alternative to the standard cross-entropy loss for training neural networks and large language models (LLMs). Harmonic loss enables improved interpretability and faster convergence, owing to its scale […]
