Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Thomas Wevers, Muryel Guolo, Sean Lockwood, Andrew Mummery, Dheeraj R. Pasham | Summary: X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are a novel mode of variability in nearby galactic nuclei whose origin remains unknown. Their multi-wavelength properties are poorly constrained, as studies have focused almost entirely on the X-ray […]
Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Boris S Kalita, Tomoko L Suzuki, Daichi Kashino, John D Silverman, Emanuele Daddi | Summary: Star-forming clumps have been found to significantly influence the star formation of gas-rich $z>1$ galaxies. Using public data from JWST/NIRCam (COSMOS-Web) and ALMA (FMOS-COSMOS), we study a sample of 32 massive […]
Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Boris S. Kalita, Si-Yue Yu, John D. Silverman, Emanuele Daddi, Luis C. Ho | Summary: Recent JWST observations have revealed the prevalence of spiral structures at $z > 1$. Unlike in the local Universe, the origin and the consequence of spirals at this epoch remain unexplored. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Suwei Wang, Lile Wang, Subo Dong, , | Summary: With the rapidly increasing rate of microlensing planet detections, microlensing modeling software faces significant challenges in computation efficiency. Here, we develop the Twinkle code, an efficient and robust binary-lens modeling software suite optimized for heterogeneous computing devices, especially […]

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Sibasish Laha, Eileen T. Meyer, Dev R. Sadaula, Ritesh Ghosh, Dhrubojyoti Sengupta | Summary: We present results from a high cadence multi-wavelength observational campaign of the enigmatic changing look AGN 1ES 1927+654 from May 2022- April 2024, coincident with an unprecedented radio flare (an increase in flux […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lile Wang | First 5 Authors: Lile Wang, , , , | Summary: The field of astrophysics has long sought computational tools capable of harnessing the power of modern GPUs to simulate the complex dynamics of astrophysical phenomena. The Kratos Framework, a novel GPU-based simulation system designed to leverage heterogeneous computing architectures, is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Aobo Kong, Wentao Ma, Shiwan Zhao, Yongbin Li, Yuchuan Wu | Summary: Social agents powered by large language models (LLMs) can simulate human social behaviors but fall short in handling complex goal-oriented social dialogues. Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) has proven effective in aligning LLM behavior with human […]
Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Maxim Chernodub, Frank Wilczek, , , | Summary: We argue that the rotation of a thin superconducting cylinder can increase the critical temperature of the superconducting phase transition substantially. The phenomenon can be interpreted as an effective negative moment of inertia associated with condensation of Cooper pairs. […]
