Kavli Affiliate: Xuebing Wu | First 5 Authors: Xiaolong Yang, Ravi Joshi, Gopal-Krishna, Tao An, Luis C. Ho | Summary: We present a catalog of 290 "winged" or X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs) extracted from the latest (2014 December 17) data release of the "Very Large Array Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty centimeter." […]
Kavli Affiliate: Fukun Liu | First 5 Authors: Weiye Xu, Handong Xu, Fukun Liu, Xiaojie Wang, | Summary: The real-time power monitoring of gyrotron is one of the key issues in the operation of electron cyclotron resonance heating system. The detector can be used for real-time power monitoring. We analyzed the principle of diode detection […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Peng | First 5 Authors: The MSE Science Team, Carine Babusiaux, Maria Bergemann, Adam Burgasser, Sara Ellison | Summary: (Abridged) The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) is an end-to-end science platform for the design, execution and scientific exploitation of spectroscopic surveys. It will unveil the composition and dynamics of the faint Universe and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | First 5 Authors: Kayhan Gültekin, Aaron Barth, Karl Gebhardt, Jenny Greene, Luis Ho | Summary: Supermassive black holes are located at the center of most, if not all, massive galaxies. They follow close correlations with global properties of their host galaxies (scaling relations), and are thought to play a crucial […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | First 5 Authors: Carine Brum, Marlon R. Diniz, Rogemar A. Riffel, Alberto Rodriguez-Ardila, Luis Ho | Summary: Intermediate mass black holes (10$^3$-10$^5$ M$_odot$) in the center of dwarf galaxies are believed to be analogous to growing Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) in the early Universe. Their characterization can provide insight about […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | First 5 Authors: Yue Shen, Scott Anderson, Edo Berger, W. N. Brandt, Gisella De Rosa | Summary: The ubiquitous variability of quasars across a wide range of wavelengths and timescales encodes critical information about the structure and dynamics of the circumnuclear emitting regions that are too small to be directly […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Peng | First 5 Authors: Eric Emsellem, Remco F. J. van der Burg, Jeremy Fensch, Tereza Jerabkova, Anita Zanella | Summary: The so-called ultra-diffuse galaxy NGC~1052-DF2 was announced to be a galaxy lacking dark matter based on a spectroscopic study of its constituent globular clusters. Here we present the first spectroscopic analysis […]
Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Warren Skidmore, Bob Kirshner, David Andersen, Gelys Trancho, Scot Kleinman | Summary: The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) International Observatory (TIO) will be a revolutionary leap forward in astronomical observing capabilities, enabling us to address some of the most profound questions about the universe. From unraveling the mysteries […]
