Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Jonathan H. Cohn, Maeve Curliss, Jonelle L. Walsh, Kyle M. Kabasares, Benjamin D. Boizelle | Summary: We present 0$.!!^{primeprime}{22}$-resolution CO(2$-$1) observations of the circumnuclear gas disk in the local compact galaxy NGC 384 with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). While the majority of the disk […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Yueluo Wang, Fengwei Xu, , | Summary: The initial conditions are critical for understanding high-mass star formation, but are not well observed. Built on our previous characterization of a Galaxy-wide sample of 463 candidate high-mass starless clumps (HMSCs), here we investigate the dynamical state of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Kohei Inayoshi, Roberto Maiolino, , , | Summary: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has uncovered low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at high redshifts of $zgtrsim 4-7$, powered by accreting black holes (BHs) with masses of $sim 10^{6-8}~M_odot$. These AGN populations are considered crucial for understanding early […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Wen Liu, Wen-Hao Bian, Xiao-Zhuo Chu, Jing Wang, | Summary: Employing the renormalization group approach, we carefully investigate the critical behavior of two-dimensional tilted semi-Dirac semimetals induced by the fermion-fermion interactions in the low-energy regime. After incorporating all one-loop corrections, we derive the coupled RG equations of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Danyang Jiang, Masafusa Onoue, Linhua Jiang, Samuel Lai, Eduardo Banados | Summary: The Fe II/Mg II emission line flux ratio in quasar spectra serves as a proxy for the relative Fe to alpha-element abundances in the broad line regions of quasars. Due to the expected different enrichment […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Yuan Bian, Min Du, Victor P. Debattista, Dylan Nelson, Mark A. Norris | Summary: Most galaxies follow well-defined scaling relations of metallicity and stellar mass; however, some outliers at the low mass end of the observed galaxy population exhibit unusually high metallicity for their mass. Understanding […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Haoran Di, Lijing Shao, Zhu Yi, Shi-Bei Kong, | Summary: The Hubble constant, $H_0$, is a crucial parameter in cosmology. However, various cosmic observations have produced differing posterior values for $H_0$, resulting in what is referred to as the $H_0$ tension. To resolve this discrepancy, utilizing other […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jiansheng Chen | First 5 Authors: Yudong Zhang, Ruobing Xie, Jiansheng Chen, Xingwu Sun, Yu Wang | Summary: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have demonstrated their powerful multimodal capabilities. However, they also face serious safety problems, as adversaries can induce robustness issues in LVLMs through the use of well-designed adversarial examples. Therefore, LVLMs are […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Peixiang Ji, Zhuhai Li, Lirui Yang, Rui Xu, Zexin Hu | Summary: Recently, theoretical studies on the bumblebee gravity model, a nonminimally-coupled vector-tensor theory that violates the Lorentz symmetry, have flourished, with a simultaneous increase in the utilization of observations to impose constraints. The static spherical solutions […]
