Probing Protoplanetary Disk Winds with C II Absorption

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Ziyan Xu, Gregory J. Herczeg, Christopher M. Johns-Krull, Kevin France, | Summary: We present an analysis of wind absorption in the C II ${lambda}1335$ doublet towards 40 classical T Tauri stars with archival far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. Absorption features produced by […]

UV Fluorescence Traces Gas and LyA Evolution in Protoplanetary Disks

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Nicole Arulanantham, Kevin France, Keri Hoadley, P. C. Schneider, Catherine C. Espaillat | Summary: Ultraviolet spectra of protoplanetary disks trace distributions of warm gas at radii where rocky planets form. We combine HST-COS observations of H2 and CO emission from 12 classical T Tauri stars to […]

An Information-state based Approach to the Optimal Output Feedback Control of Nonlinear Systems

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: This paper develops a data-based approach to the closed-loop output feedback control of nonlinear dynamical systems with a partial nonlinear observation model. We propose an information state based approach to rigorously transform the partially observed problem into a fully observed problem […]

Long-Range Superconducting Proximity Effect in Nickel Nanowires

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Jue Jiang, Weiwei Zhao, Fei Wang, Renzhong Du, Ludi Miao | Summary: When a ferromagnet is placed in contact with a superconductor, owing to incompatible spin order, the Cooper pairs from the superconductor cannot survive more than one or two nanometers inside the ferromagnet. This is confirmed […]

Gamma-Ray Emission Produced by $r$-process Elements from Neutron Star Mergers

Kavli Affiliate: Li Xin Li |Summary:The observation of a radioactively powered kilonova AT~2017gfo associated with the gravitational wave-event GW170817 from binary neutron star merger proves that these events are ideal sites for the production of heavy $r$-process elements. The gamma-ray photons produced by the radioactive decay of heavy elements are unique probes for the detailed […]

Evidence of Accretion Burst: The Viscously Heated Inner Disk of the Embedded Protostar IRAS 16316-1540

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Sung-Yong Yoon, Jeong-Eun Lee, Seokho Lee, Gregory J. Herczeg, Sunkyung Park | Summary: Outbursts of young stellar objects occur when the mass accretion rate suddenly increases. However, such outbursts are difficult to detect for deeply embedded protostars due to their thick envelope and the rarity of […]

Benign Overfitting in Multiclass Classification: All Roads Lead to Interpolation

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Vidya Muthukumar, Christos Thrampoulidis, , | Summary: The literature on "benign overfitting" in overparameterized models has been mostly restricted to regression or binary classification; however, modern machine learning operates in the multiclass setting. Motivated by this discrepancy, we study benign overfitting in multiclass linear classification. […]
