Vetting quark-star models with gravitational waves in the hierarchical Bayesian framework

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Ziming Wang, Yong Gao, Dicong Liang, Junjie Zhao, Lijing Shao | Summary: The recent discovery of gravitational waves (GWs) has opened a new avenue for investigating the equation of state (EOS) of dense matter in compact stars, which is an outstanding problem in astronomy and nuclear physics. […]

Topological K-theory of quasi-BPS categories for Higgs bundles

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Yukinobu Toda, , , | Summary: In a previous paper, we introduced quasi-BPS categories for moduli stacks of semistable Higgs bundles. Under a certain condition on the rank, Euler characteristic, and weight, the quasi-BPS categories (called BPS in this case) are non-commutative analogues of Hitchin […]

Deciphering spatially resolved Lyman-alpha profiles in reionization analogs: the Sunburst Arc at cosmic noon

Kavli Affiliate: Michael D. Gladders | First 5 Authors: Erik Solhaug, Hsiao-Wen Chen, Mandy C. Chen, Fakhri Zahedy, Max Gronke | Summary: The hydrogen Lyman-alpha (Lya) emission line, the brightest spectral feature of a photoionized gas, is considered an indirect tracer of the escape of Lyman continuum (LyC) photons, particularly when the intergalactic medium is […]

Detection of Dark Matter Coherent Scattering via Torsion Balance with Test Bodies of Different Sizes

Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Shigeki Matsumoto, Jie Sheng, Chuan-Yang Xing, , | Summary: Dark matter with mass in the crossover range between wave dark matter and particle dark matter, around $(10^{-3},, 10^3),$eV, remains relatively unexplored by terrestrial experiments. In this mass regime, dark matter scatters coherently with macroscopic objects. The effect […]
