The Magellan M2FS Spectroscopic Survey of High-$z$ Galaxies: Lyα Emitters at $zapprox6.6$ and the Evolution of Lyα Luminosity Function over $zapprox5.7-6.6$

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Yuanhang Ning, Linhua Jiang, Zhen-Ya Zheng, Jin Wu, | Summary: We present a sample of Ly{alpha} emitters (LAEs) at $zapprox6.6$ from our spectroscopic survey of high-redshift galaxies using the multi-object spectrograph M2FS on the Magellan Clay telescope. The sample consists of 36 LAEs selected by the narrow-band […]

Metallicity in Quasar Broad Line Regions at Redshift $sim$ 6

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Shu Wang, Linhua Jiang, Yue Shen, Luis C. Ho, Marianne Vestergaard | Summary: Broad line regions (BLRs) in high-redshift quasars provide crucial information of chemical enrichment in the early universe. Here we present a study of BLR metallicities in 33 quasars at redshift $5.7<z<6.4$. Using the near-IR […]

On the quenching of star formation in observed and simulated central galaxies: Evidence for the role of integrated AGN feedback

Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Joanna M. Piotrowska, Asa F. L. Bluck, Roberto Maiolino, Yingjie Peng, | Summary: In this paper we investigate how massive central galaxies cease their star formation by comparing theoretical predictions from cosmological simulations: EAGLE, Illustris and IllustrisTNG with observations of the local Universe from the Sloan Digital […]

A machine learning approach to infer the accreted stellar mass fractions of galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Rui Shi, Wenting Wang, Zhaozhou Li, Jiaxin Han, Jingjing Shi | Summary: We propose a random forest (RF) machine learning approach to determine the accreted stellar mass fractions ($f_mathrm{acc}$) of central galaxies, based on various dark matter halo and galaxy features. The RF is trained and tested […]

Explore Long-Range Context feature for Speaker Verification

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Zhuo Li, , , , | Summary: Capturing long-range dependency and modeling long temporal contexts is proven to benefit speaker verification tasks. In this paper, we propose the combination of the Hierarchical-Split block(HS-block) and the Depthwise Separable Self-Attention(DSSA) module to capture richer multi-range context speaker features from […]

Repeating Fast Radio Burst:Coherent Circular Polarization By Bunches

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Wei-Yang Wang, Jin-Chen Jiang, Jiguang Lu, Heng Xu, Jiangwei Xu | Summary: Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration signals, to be highly dispersed at distant galaxies, the physical origin of which is still challenging. Coherent curvature emission by bunches powered, e.g., by starquakes, has already been proposed […]

Evidence for A Hot Wind from High-resolution X-ray Spectroscopic Observation of the Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus in NGC 7213

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Fangzheng Shi, Bocheng Zhu, Zhiyuan Li, Feng Yuan, | Summary: Super-massive black holes (SMBHs) spend most of their lifetime accreting at a rate well below the Eddington limit, manifesting themselves as low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs). The prevalence of a hot wind from LLAGNs is a generic […]
