Effects of orbital eccentricity on continuous gravitational waveforms from triaxially-deformed precessing neutron stars in tight binaries

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Wen-Fan Feng, Tan Liu, Yan Wang, Lijing Shao, | Summary: The successful detection of continuous gravitational waves (GWs) from spinning neutron stars (NSs) will shape our understanding of the physical properties of dense matter under extreme conditions. Binary population synthesis simulations show that forthcoming space-borne GW detectors […]

Measuring the Inconsistency of Large Language Models in Preferential Ranking

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Xiutian Zhao, Ke Wang, Wei Peng, , | Summary: Despite large language models’ (LLMs) recent advancements, their bias and hallucination issues persist, and their ability to offer consistent preferential rankings remains underexplored. This study investigates the capacity of LLMs to provide consistent ordinal preferences, a crucial aspect […]

An Intermediate Mass Black Hole Hidden Behind Thick Obscuration

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Peter G. Boorman, Daniel Stern, Roberto J. Assef, Abhijeet Borkar, Murray Brightman | Summary: Recent models suggest approximately half of all accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs; $M_{rm BH}$ $gtrsim$ 10$^{5}$ M$_{odot}$) are expected to undergo intense growth phases behind Compton-thick ($N_{rm H}$ $>$ 1.5 $times$ 10$^{24}$ cm$^{-2}$) […]
