Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: H. N. Smitha, Alexander I. Shapiro, Veronika Witzke, Nadiia M. Kostogryz, Yvonne C. Unruh | Summary: Accurate calculations of starspot spectra are essential for multiple applications in astronomy. The current standard is to represent starspot spectra by spectra of stars that are cooler than the quiet star […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle, Belle II Collaborations, :, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal | Summary: We report measurements of the absolute branching fractions $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to D_s^{pm} X)$, $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to D^0/bar{D}^0 X)$, and $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to D^{pm} X)$, where the latter is measured for the first time. The results are based on a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Qinghui Sun, Sharon Xuesong Wang, Tianjun Gan, Chenyang Ji, Zitao Lin | Summary: The Sun is depleted in refractory elements compared to nearby solar twins, which may be linked to the formation of giant or terrestrial planets. Here we present high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectroscopic data for 17 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Jingtao Ding, Yunke Zhang, Yu Shang, Yuheng Zhang, Zefang Zong | Summary: The concept of world models has garnered significant attention due to advancements in multimodal large language models such as GPT-4 and video generation models such as Sora, which are central to the pursuit of artificial […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah A. Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Chao-Lin Kuo, Chelsea L. Bartram, Aaron S. Chou, Taj A. Dyson, Noah A. Kurinsky | Summary: We provide a comprehensive comparison of linear amplifiers and microwave photon-counters in axion dark matter experiments. The study is done assuming a range of realistic operating conditions and detector parameters, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Michele Perna, Santiago Arribas, Xihan Ji, Cosimo Marconcini, Isabella Lamperti | Summary: Studying the distribution and properties of ionised gas in outflows driven by AGN is crucial for understanding the feedback mechanisms at play in extragalactic environments. In this study, we explore the connection between ionised outflows […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Hai-Tian Wang, Ziming Wang, Yiming Dong, Garvin Yim, Lijing Shao | Summary: The ringdown phase of a gravitational wave (GW) signal from a binary black hole merger provides valuable insights into the properties of the final black hole and serves as a critical test of general relativity […]
Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Akifumi Chitose, Masahiro Ibe, Shunsuke Neda, Satoshi Shirai, | Summary: Recent observations by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) indicate a potential detection of a stochastic gravitational wave (GW) background. Metastable cosmic strings have been recognized as a possible source of the observed signals. In this paper, we propose […]
Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Shenglan Sun, Fei Wang, Huawei Zhang, Xiang-Xiang Xue, Yang Huang | Summary: Motivated by the vast gap between photometric and spectroscopic data volumes, there is great potential in using 5D kinematic information to identify and study substructures of the Milky Way. We identify substructures in the Galactic […]
