Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: Sergey S. Tsygankov, Victor Doroshenko, Alexander A. Mushtukov, Juri Poutanen, Alessandro Di Marco | Summary: X-ray polarimetry is a unique way to probe the geometrical configuration of highly magnetized accreting neutron stars (X-ray pulsars). GRO J1008$-$57 is the first transient X-ray pulsar observed at two different flux […]
Kavli Affiliate: R. Glenn Morris | First 5 Authors: Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Sven Herrmann, Matthew Kaplan, Peter Orel, Kevan Donlon | Summary: The Single electron Sensitive Read Out (SiSeRO) is a novel on-chip charge detector output stage for charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensors. Developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, this technology uses a p-MOSFET transistor with a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Jinyi Yang, Xiaohui Fan, Ansh Gupta, Adam Myers, Nathalie Palanque-Delabrouille | Summary: We report the first results of a high-redshift ($z$ >~ 5) quasar survey using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). As a DESI secondary target program, this survey is designed to carry out a systematic […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roger Blandford | First 5 Authors: Payel Mukhopadhyay, Enrico Peretti, Noemie Globus, Paul Simeon, Roger Blandford | Summary: The origin of cosmic rays above the knee in the spectrum is an unsolved problem. We present a wind model in which interstellar gas flows along a non-rotating, expanding flux tube with a changing speed […]

Kavli Affiliate: J. Todd Hoeksema | First 5 Authors: Donald M. Hassler, Sarah E Gibson, Jeffrey S Newmark, Nicholas A. Featherstone, Lisa Upton | Summary: Solaris is a transformative Solar Polar Discovery-class mission concept to address crucial outstanding questions that can only be answered from a polar vantage. Solaris will image the Sun’s poles from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah A. Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Baum, Patrick Stengel, Natsue Abe, Javier F. Acevedo, Gabriela R. Araujo | Summary: Minerals are solid state nuclear track detectors – nuclear recoils in a mineral leave latent damage to the crystal structure. Depending on the mineral and its temperature, the damage features are retained […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Elise Darragh-Ford, John F. Wu, Yao-Yuan Mao, Risa H. Wechsler, Marla Geha | Summary: We introduce the DESI LOW-Z Secondary Target Survey, which combines the wide-area capabilities of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) with an efficient, low-redshift target selection method. Our selection consists of a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: L. Balkenhol, D. Dutcher, A. Spurio Mancini, A. Doussot, K. Benabed | Summary: We present a sample-variance-limited measurement of the temperature power spectrum ($TT$) of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using observations of a $sim! 1500 ,mathrm{deg}^2$ field made by SPT-3G in 2018. We report multifrequency power […]
