A Measurement of Gravitational Lensing of the Cosmic Microwave Background Using SPT-3G 2018 Data

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: Z. Pan, F. Bianchini, W. L. K. Wu, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed | Summary: We present a measurement of gravitational lensing over 1500 deg$^2$ of the Southern sky using SPT-3G temperature data at 95 and 150 GHz taken in 2018. The lensing amplitude relative to […]

Symfind: Addressing the Fragility of Subhalo Finders and Revealing the Durability of Subhalos

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Philip Mansfield, Elise Darragh-Ford, Yunchong Wang, Ethan O. Nadler, Risa H. Wechsler | Summary: A major question in $Lambda$CDM is what this theory actually predicts for the properties of subhalo populations. Subhalos are difficult to simulate and to find within simulations, and this propagates into uncertainty […]

Extreme Energy Cosmic Rays “Treasure Maps”: a new methodology to unveil the nature of cosmic accelerators

Kavli Affiliate: Roger Blandford | First 5 Authors: Noémie Globus, Anatoli Fedynitch, Roger Blandford, , | Summary: Extreme Energy Cosmic Rays, EECRs — cosmic rays with energies beyond the GZK cutoff (i.e. greater than 100 EeV) are scarce. Only a few of such events have been detected by air shower experiments and the nature of […]

NuSTAR Observations of Abell 665 and 2146: Constraints on Non-Thermal Emission

Kavli Affiliate: Grzegorz Madejski | First 5 Authors: Randall Rojas Bolivar, Daniel Wik, Ayşegül Tümer, Fabio Gastaldello, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo | Summary: Observations from past missions such as RXTE and Beppo-SAX suggested the presence of inverse Compton (IC) scattering at hard X-ray energies within the intracluster medium of some massive galaxy clusters. In subsequent years, observations […]

Photometry, Centroid and Point-Spread Function Measurements in the LSST Camera Focal Plane Using Artificial Stars

Kavli Affiliate: Aaron Roodman | First 5 Authors: Johnny H. Esteves, Yousuke Utsumi, Adam Snyder, Theo Schutt, Alex Broughton | Summary: The Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s LSST Camera pixel response has been characterized using laboratory measurements with a grid of artificial stars. We quantify the contributions to photometry, centroid, point-spread function size, and shape measurement […]
