DiffFluid: Plain Diffusion Models are Effective Predictors of Flow Dynamics

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Dongyu Luo, Jianyu Wu, Jing Wang, Hairun Xie, Xiangyu Yue | Summary: We showcase the plain diffusion models with Transformers are effective predictors of fluid dynamics under various working conditions, e.g., Darcy flow and high Reynolds number. Unlike traditional fluid dynamical solvers that depend on complex architectures […]

First Resolution of Microlensed Images of a Binary-Lens Event

Kavli Affiliate: Jinyi Shangguan | First 5 Authors: Zexuan Wu, Subo Dong, A. Mérand, Christopher S. Kochanek, Przemek Mróz | Summary: We resolve the multiple images of the binary-lens microlensing event ASASSN-22av using the GRAVITY instrument of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI). The light curves show weak binary perturbations, complicating the analysis, but the […]

BASS. XLIII: Optical, UV, and X-ray emission properties of unobscured Swift/BAT active galactic nuclei

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Kriti K. Gupta, Claudio Ricci, Matthew J. Temple, Alessia Tortosa, Michael J. Koss | Summary: We present one of the largest multiwavelength studies of simultaneous optical-to-X-ray spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of unobscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the local Universe. Using a representative sample of hard-X-ray-selected AGN […]
