Kavli Affiliate: Grzegorz M. Madejski | First 5 Authors: Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Maria I. Bernardos | Summary: Blazars are active galactic nuclei that launch collimated, powerful jets of magnetized relativistic plasma. Their primary jet, whose emission typically spans from low-frequency radio to very high-energy ($gtrsim0.1$ TeV) $gamma$-rays (Blandford […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: David J. Schlegel, Juna A. Kollmeier, Greg Aldering, Stephen Bailey, Charles Baltay | Summary: In this white paper, we present the MegaMapper concept. The MegaMapper is a proposed ground-based experiment to measure Inflation parameters and Dark Energy from galaxy redshifts at $2<z<5$. In order to achieve […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: David J. Schlegel, Simone Ferraro, Greg Aldering, Charles Baltay, Segev BenZvi | Summary: In this white paper, we present an experimental road map for spectroscopic experiments beyond DESI. DESI will be a transformative cosmological survey in the 2020s, mapping 40 million galaxies and quasars and capturing […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Ethan O. Nadler, Philip Mansfield, Yunchong Wang, Xiaolong Du, Susmita Adhikari | Summary: We present Symphony, a compilation of $262$ cosmological, cold dark matter-only zoom-in simulations spanning four decades of host halo mass, from $10^{11}~M_{mathrm{odot}}$ to $10^{15}~M_{mathrm{odot}}$. This compilation includes three existing simulation suites at the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Brittany E. Miles, Beth A. Biller, Polychronis Patapis, Kadin Worthen, Emily Rickman | Summary: We present the highest fidelity spectrum to date of a planetary-mass object. VHS 1256 b is a $<$20 M$_mathrm{Jup}$ widely separated ($sim$8arcsec, a = 150 au), young, planetary-mass companion that shares photometric colors […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Aarynn L. Carter, Sasha Hinkley, Jens Kammerer, Andrew Skemer, Beth A. Biller | Summary: We present JWST Early Release Science (ERS) coronagraphic observations of the super-Jupiter exoplanet, HIP 65426 b, with the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) from 2-5 $mu$m, and with the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) from 11-16 $mu$m.
