Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Wei Yan, Ryan C. Hickox, Chien-Ting J. Chen, Claudio Ricci, Alberto Masini | Summary: In active galactic nuclei (AGN), fluorescent Fe K$alpha$ (iron) line emission is generally interpreted as originating from obscuring material around a supermassive black hole (SMBH) on the scale of a few parsecs (pc). […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Chengpeng Zhang, Yingjie Peng, Luis C. Ho, Roberto Maiolino, Alvio Renzini | Summary: The phenomenological study of evolving galaxy populations has shown that star forming galaxies can be quenched by two distinct processes: mass quenching and environment quenching (Peng et al. 2010). To explore the mass quenching […]

Kavli Affiliate: Li Xin Li | First 5 Authors: Zhengyao Lv, Xiaoming Li, Xin Li, Fu Li, Tianwei Lin | Summary: Human pose transfer has received great attention due to its wide applications, yet is still a challenging task that is not well solved. Recent works have achieved great success to transfer the person image […]

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Fangzhou Ren, Xiaodian Chen, Huawei Zhang, Richard de Grijs, Licai Deng | Summary: We independently determine the zero-point offset of the Gaia early Data Release-3 (EDR3) parallaxes based on $sim 110,000$ W Ursae Majoris (EW)-type eclipsing binary systems. EWs cover almost the entire sky and are characterized […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Kohei Inayoshi, Kazumi Kashiyama, Eli Visbal, Zoltan Haiman, | Summary: The successive discoveries of binary merger events by Advanced LIGO-Virgo have been revealing the statistical properties of binary black hole (BBH) populations. A stochastic gravitational wave background (GWB) is a useful tool to probe the cosmological evolution […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Yu Qiu, Brian R. McNamara, Tamara Bogdanovic, Kohei Inayoshi, Luis C. Ho | Summary: Outflows driven by active galactic nuclei (AGN) are an important channel for accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) to interact with their host galaxies and clusters. Properties of the outflows are however poorly constrained […]

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Zucheng Gao, Xian Chen, Yi-Ming Hu, Jian-Dong Zhang, Shunjia Huang | Summary: Gravitational lensing of gravitational waves (GWs) is a powerful probe of the matter distribution in the universe. Here we revisit the wave-optics effects induced by dark matter (DM) halos on the GW signals of merging […]

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: S. J. Brennan, M. Fraser, J. Johansson, A. Pastorello, R. Kotak | Summary: We present the results from a high cadence, multi-wavelength observation campaign of AT 2016jbu (aka Gaia16cfr), an interacting transient. This dataset complements the current literature by adding higher cadence as well as extended coverage […]

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Zhuo Li, Weiqing Min, Jiajun Song, Yaohui Zhu, Liping Kang | Summary: Optimising the approximation of Average Precision (AP) has been widely studied for image retrieval. Limited by the definition of AP, such methods consider both negative and positive instances ranking before each positive instance. However, we […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yu Wang, Ke Wang, Linzhang Wang, , | Summary: Attribution methods have emerged as a popular approach to interpreting model predictions based on the relevance of input features. Although the feature importance ranking can provide insights of how models arrive at a prediction from a raw input, […]
