Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Luming Sun, Ning Jiang, Liming Dou, Xinwen Shu, Jiazheng Zhu | Summary: We report the discovery of a second optical flare that occurred in September 2021 in IRAS F01004-2237, where the first flare occurred in 2010 has been reported, and present a detailed analysis of multi-band data. […]
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 […]
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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kejia Lee | First 5 Authors: Rui Wang, Zhen Yan, Zhiqiang Shen, KeJia Lee, Yajun Wu | Summary: The Gum Nebula is a faint supernova remnant extending about 40 degrees across the southern sky, potentially affecting tens of background pulsars. Though the view that the Gum Nebula acts as a potential scattering screen […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Zimu Lu, Aojun Zhou, Ke Wang, Houxing Ren, Weikang Shi | Summary: Code has been shown to be effective in enhancing the mathematical reasoning abilities of large language models due to its precision and accuracy. Previous works involving continued mathematical pretraining often include code that utilizes math-related […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Alexander W. Raymond, Sheperd S. Doeleman, Keiichi Asada, Lindy Blackburn, Geoffrey C. Bower | Summary: The first very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) detections at 870$mu$m wavelength (345$,$GHz frequency) are reported, achieving the highest diffraction-limited angular resolution yet obtained from the surface of the Earth, and the highest-frequency […]
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$^{-2}$) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Peter G. Boorman, Poshak Gandhi, Johannes Buchner, Daniel Stern, Claudio Ricci | Summary: Hard X-ray-selected samples of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) provide one of the cleanest views of supermassive black hole accretion, but are biased against objects obscured by Compton-thick gas column densities of $N_{rm H}$ $>$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Jie Liao, Ning Chang, Lang Cui, Pengfei Jiang, Didong Mou | Summary: Type-C quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in black hole X-ray transients typically manifest in the low-hard and hard-intermediate states. This study presents a detailed spectral and temporal analysis of the black hole candidate Swift J1727.8-1613 using […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ruobing Dong | First 5 Authors: Kan Chen, Ruobing Dong, , , | Summary: Planet-disk interactions can produce kinematic signatures in protoplanetary disks. While recent observations have detected non-Keplerian gas motions in disks, their origins are still being debated. To explore this, we conduct 3D hydrodynamic simulations using the code FARGO3D to study […]
