Kavli Affiliate: Michael M. Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Masafumi Niwano, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Ryan M. Lau, Kishalay De, Roberto Soria | Summary: The mechanism of X-ray outbursts in Be X-ray binaries remains a mystery, and understanding their circumstellar disks is crucial for a solution of the mass-transfer problem. In particular, it is important to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Shraddha Rajpal, Zeeshan Ahmed, Tyrus Berry, , | Summary: We evaluate the impact of inference model on uncertainties when using continuous wave Optically Detected Magnetic Resonance (ODMR) measurements to infer temperature. Our approach leverages a probabilistic feedforward inference model designed to maximize the likelihood of observed ODMR […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Jiabao Wang, Zhaojiang Liu, Qiang Meng, Liujiang Yan, Ke Wang | Summary: Occupancy prediction, aiming at predicting the occupancy status within voxelized 3D environment, is quickly gaining momentum within the autonomous driving community. Mainstream occupancy prediction works first discretize the 3D environment into voxels, then perform classification […]

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Ruancun Li, Luis C. Ho, Claudio Ricci, Benny Trakhtenbrot, | Summary: The properties of slim accretion disks, while crucial for our understanding of black hole growth, have yet to be studied extensively observationally. We analyze the multi-epoch broad-band spectral energy distribution of the changing-look active galactic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Ruancun Li, Claudio Ricci, Luis C. Ho, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Erin Kara | Summary: Time-domain studies of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) offer a powerful tool for understanding black hole accretion physics. Prior to the optical outburst on 23 December 2017, 1ES 1927+654 was classified as a "true" type~2 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Collin Lewin, Erin Kara, Aaron J. Barth, Edward M. Cackett, Gisella De Rosa | Summary: X-ray reverberation mapping is a powerful technique for probing the innermost accretion disk, whereas continuum reverberation mapping in the UV, optical, and infrared (UVOIR) reveals reprocessing by the rest of the accretion […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Jonathan H. Cohn, Maeve Curliss, Jonelle L. Walsh, Kyle M. Kabasares, Benjamin D. Boizelle | Summary: We present 0$.!!^{primeprime}{22}$-resolution CO(2$-$1) observations of the circumnuclear gas disk in the local compact galaxy NGC 384 with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). While the majority of the disk […]
Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Tara Dacunha, Sergio Martin-Alvarez, Susan E. Clark, Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, | Summary: Understanding the role that magnetic fields play on the stage of galaxy formation requires accurate methods for inferring the properties of extragalactic magnetic fields. Radio synchrotron emission has been the most promising avenue to infer […]
