Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Jincheng Guo, Jingkun Zhao, Huawei Zhang, Jiajun Zhang, Yu Bai | Summary: In this paper, we report white dwarfs identified in the 5th Data Release of the Large Area Multi-Object fibre Spectroscopic Telescope, including spectral types of DA, DB, DC, DZ, and so on. There are 2 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Jennifer C. Yee, Weicheng Zang, Michael D. Albrow | Summary: The light curve of the microlensing event KMT-2021-BLG-0912 exhibits a very short anomaly relative to a single-lens single-source form. We investigate the light curve for the purpose of identifying the origin of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Cheongho Han, Andrzej Udalski, Chung-Uk Lee, Doeon Kim, Wei Zhu | Summary: With the aim of interpreting anomalous lensing events with no suggested models, we conducted a project of reinvestigating microlensing data in and before the 2019 season. In this work, we report a multi-planet system OGLE-2019-BLG-0468L […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Hengxiao Guo, Aaron J. Barth, Kirk T. Korista, Michael R. Goad, Edward M. Cackett | Summary: Photoionization modeling of active galactic nuclei (AGN) predicts that diffuse continuum (DC) emission from the broad-line region makes a substantial contribution to the total continuum emission from ultraviolet through near-infrared […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Xian Chen, Yong Chen, Mumien Cheng, Chen Jia, | Summary: The $L^p$ maximal inequalities for martingales are one of the classical results in the theory of stochastic processes. Here we establish the sharp moderate maximal inequalities for one-dimensional diffusion processes, which include the $L^p$ maximal inequalities as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Qiong Li, Ran Wang, Helmut Dannerbauer, Zheng Cai, Bjorn Emonts | Summary: The MAMMOTH-1 nebula at $z=2.317$ is an enormous Ly$alpha$ nebula (ELAN) extending to a $sim$440 kpc scale at the center of the extreme galaxy overdensity BOSS 1441. In this paper, we present observations of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, , , , | Summary: For a distorted black hole (BH), its ringdown waveform is a superposition of quasi-normal modes (QNMs). In general relativity (GR), the lower order QNM frequencies and damping rates can be well approximated by a polynomial of BH’s dimensionless spin and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Jeffrey McKaig, Claudio Ricci, Stéphane Paltani, Shobita Satyapal, | Summary: Recent observations have shown that a large portion of the mid–infrared (MIR) spectrum of active galactic nuclei (AGN) stems from the polar regions. In this paper, we investigate the effects of this polar gas on the X-ray […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Kohei Inayoshi, Riouhei Nakatani, Daisuke Toyouchi, Takashi Hosokawa, Rolf Kuiper | Summary: We study the early growth of massive seed black holes (BHs) via accretion in protogalactic nuclei where the stellar bulge component is assembled, performing axisymmetric two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamical simulations. We find that when a seed […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Jin-Ping Zhu, Shichao Wu, Yuan-Pei Yang, Chang Liu, Bing Zhang | Summary: In the second work of this series, we explore the optimal search strategy for serendipitous and gravitational-wave-triggered target-of-opportunity (ToO) observations of kilonovae and optical short-duration gamma-ray burst (sGRB) afterglows from binary neutron star (BNS) mergers, […]
