Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Nora L. Eisner, Samuel K. Grunblatt, Oscar Barragán, Thea H. Faridani, Chris Lintott | Summary: We report on the discovery and validation of a transiting long-period mini-Neptune orbiting a bright (V = 9.0 mag) G dwarf (TOI 4633; R = 1.05 RSun, M = 1.10 MSun). The […]
Kavli Affiliate: Aaron Roodman | First 5 Authors: Umut Demirbozan, Seshadri Nadathur, Ismael Ferrero, Pablo Fosalba, Andras Kovacs | Summary: $ $Low density cosmic voids gravitationally lens the cosmic microwave background (CMB), leaving a negative imprint on the CMB convergence $kappa$. This effect provides insight into the distribution of matter within voids, and can also […]

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Calvin Preston, Alexandra Amon, George Efstathiou, , | Summary: Analyses of cosmic shear typically condense weak lensing information over a range of scales to a single cosmological parameter, $S_8$. This paper presents a method to extract more information from Stage-IV cosmic shear measurements by directly reconstructing the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Bertrand Mennesson, Ruslan Belikov, Emiel Por, Eugene Serabyn, Garreth Ruane | Summary: We summarize the current best polychromatic (10 to 20 % bandwidth) contrast performance demonstrated in the laboratory by different starlight suppression approaches and systems designed to directly characterize exoplanets around nearby stars. We present results […]
Kavli Affiliate: C. M. Ignarra | First 5 Authors: J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder, C. S. Amarasinghe | Summary: The first science run of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment, a dual-phase xenon time project chamber operating in the Sanford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota, USA, has reported leading limits […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Claire L. Greenwell, Lizelke Klindt, George B. Lansbury, David J. Rosario, David M. Alexander | Summary: We present a catalog of hard X-ray serendipitous sources detected in the first 80 months of observations by the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR). The NuSTAR serendipitous survey 80-month (NSS80) catalog […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Xin Li | First 5 Authors: Bingchen Li, Xin Li, Yiting Lu, Ruoyu Feng, Mengxi Guo | Summary: Blind Compressed Image Restoration (CIR) has garnered significant attention due to its practical applications. It aims to mitigate compression artifacts caused by unknown quality factors, particularly with JPEG codecs. Existing works on blind CIR […]

Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Pierre N. Thibodeaux, Alexander P. Ji, William Cerny, Evan N. Kirby, Joshua D. Simon | Summary: The discovery of a star formed out of pair-instability supernova ejecta would have massive implications for the Population III star initial mass function and the existence of stars over 100 […]
