The Emergence of Little Red Dots from Binary Massive Black Holes

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Kohei Inayoshi, Jinyi Shangguan, Xian Chen, Luis C. Ho, Zoltan Haiman | Summary: Little red dots (LRDs) are a newly identified class of broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) with a distinctive v-shape spectrum characterized by red optical and blue UV continuum emission. Their high abundance at redshifts […]

KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c: A Cold Super-Jupiter with a Saturn Sibling

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Hongyu Li, Jiyuan Zhang, Cheongho Han, Weicheng Zang, Youn Kil Jung | Summary: We present the discovery and analysis of the sixth microlensing two-planet system, KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c, detected by a follow-up program targeting high-magnification events. Both planets are subject to the well-known ”Close/Wide” degeneracy, although for the first […]

From First Draft to Final Insight: A Multi-Agent Approach for Feedback Generation

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Jie Cao, Chloe Qianhui Zhao, Xian Chen, Shuman Wang, Christian Schunn | Summary: Producing large volumes of high-quality, timely feedback poses significant challenges to instructors. To address this issue, automation technologies-particularly Large Language Models (LLMs)-show great potential. However, current LLM-based research still shows room for improvement in […]

CAPERS-LRD-z9: A Gas Enshrouded Little Red Dot Hosting a Broad-line AGN at z=9.288

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Anthony J. Taylor, Vasily Kokorev, Dale D. Kocevski, Hollis B. Akins, Fergus Cullen | Summary: We present CAPERS-LRD-z9, a little red dot (LRD) which we confirm to be a $z=9.288$ broad-line AGN (BLAGN). First identified as a high-redshift LRD candidate from PRIMER NIRCam photometry, follow-up NIRSpec/PRISM spectroscopy […]

Evidence of a fraction of LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA events coming from active galactic nuclei

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Liang-Gui Zhu, Xian Chen, , , | Summary: The formation channels of the gravitational-wave (GW) sources detected by LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA (LVK) remain poorly constrained. Active galactic nucleus (AGN) has been proposed as one of the potential hosts but the fraction of GW events originating from AGNs has not […]
