Interpretations of the cosmic ray secondary-to-primary ratios measured by DAMPE

Kavli Affiliate: Igor V. Moskalenko | First 5 Authors: Peng-Xiong Ma, Zhi-Hui Xu, Qiang Yuan, Xiao-Jun Bi, Yi-Zhong Fan | Summary: Precise measurements of the boron-to-carbon and boron-to-oxygen ratios by DAMPE show clear hardenings around $100$ GeV/n, which provide important implications on the production, propagation, and interaction of Galactic cosmic rays. In this work we […]

BICEP / Keck XVII: Line of Sight Distortion Analysis: Estimates of Gravitational Lensing, Anisotropic Cosmic Birefringence, Patchy Reionization, and Systematic Errors

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: BICEP/Keck Collaboration, :, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri | Summary: We present estimates of line-of-sight distortion fields derived from the 95 GHz and 150 GHz data taken by BICEP2, BICEP3, and Keck Array up to the 2018 observing season, leading to cosmological constraints and […]

Toroidal flux loss due to flux emergence explains why solar cycles rise differently but decay in a similar way

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Cameron | First 5 Authors: Akash Biswas, Bidya Binay Karak, Robert Cameron, , | Summary: A striking feature of the solar cycle is that at the beginning, sunspots appear around mid-latitudes, and over time the latitudes of emergences migrate towards the equator.The maximum level of activity (e.g., sunspot number) varies from cycle […]

Improved Dark Matter Search Sensitivity Resulting from LUX Low-Energy Nuclear Recoil Calibration

Kavli Affiliate: C. M. Ignarra | First 5 Authors: LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo, X. Bai | Summary: Dual-phase xenon time projection chamber (TPC) detectors have demonstrated superior search sensitivities to dark matter over a wide range of particle masses. To extend their sensitivity to include low-mass dark matter interactions, […]
