Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: A. Foster, A. Chokshi, A. J. Anderson, B. Ansarinejad, M. Archipley | Summary: The detection of satellite thermal emission at millimeter wavelengths is presented using data from the 3rd-Generation receiver on the South Pole Telescope (SPT-3G). This represents the first reported detection of thermal emission from artificial […]

Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: Dmitry A. Prokhorov, Yi-Jung Yang, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Jacco Vink, Patrick Slane | Summary: Synchrotron X-ray emission has been detected from nearly a dozen young supernova remnants (SNRs). X-rays of synchrotron origin exhibit linear polarization in a regular, non-randomly oriented magnetic field. The significant polarized X-ray emission from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Matthew Kwiecien, Tesla Jeltema, Alexie Leauthaud, Song Huang, Eli Rykoff | Summary: The number density and redshift evolution of optically selected galaxy clusters offer an independent measurement of the amplitude of matter fluctuations, $S_8$. However, recent results have shown that clusters chosen by the redMaPPer algorithm show […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: W. Peter Maksym, Ioannis Liodakis, M. Lynne Saade, Dawoon E. Kim, Riccardo Middei | Summary: X-ray polarization is a unique new probe of the particle acceleration in astrophysical jets made possible through the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer. Here we report on the first dense X-ray polarization monitoring […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Vincent Chambouleyron, J. Kent Wallace, Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Bruce Macintosh, | Summary: A crucial component of the high-contrast instrumental chain in astronomy is the wavefront sensor (WFS). A key property of this component is its sensitivities, which reflect its ability to efficiently use incoming photons to encode the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Dwaipayan Ray, Robert Collister, Hussain Rasiwala, Lucas Backes, Ali V. Balbuena | Summary: Neutrinoless double beta decay ($0 nu beta beta$) provides a way to probe physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The upcoming nEXO experiment will search for $0nubetabeta$ decay in $^{136}$Xe with a […]

Balbuena | Summary: Neutrinoless double beta decay {($0nubetabeta$)} provides a way to probe physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The upcoming nEXO experiment will search for $0nubetabeta$ decay in $^{136}$Xe with a projected half-life sensitivity […]
Kavli Affiliate: Philip J. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Tian Li, Thomas E. Collett, Philip J. Marshall, Sydney Erickson, Wolfgang Enzi | Summary: The time delay between multiple images of strongly lensed quasars has been used to infer the Hubble constant. The primary systematic uncertainty for time-delay cosmography is the mass-sheet transform (MST), which preserves […]
Kavli Affiliate: Laura Schaefer | First 5 Authors: Kaveh Pahlevan, Laura Schaefer, Don Porcelli, , | Summary: The Martian isotopic record displays a dichotomy in volatile compositions. Interior volatiles from the mantle record a chondritic heritage (e.g., H, N, Kr, Xe) whereas the atmospheric reservoir of Kr and Xe – which do not currently experience […]
