Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Clarissa R. Do Ó, Saavidra Perera, Jérôme Maire, Jayke S. Nguyen, Vincent Chambouleyron | Summary: The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a high contrast imaging instrument that aims to detect and characterize extrasolar planets. GPI is being upgraded to GPI 2.0, with several subsystems receiving a re-design […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Jack T. Dinsmore, Roger W. Romani, , , | Summary: We present the first Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) catalog of "pulsar X-ray filaments," or "misaligned outflows." These are linear, synchrotron radiating features powered by ultra-relativistic electrons and positrons that escape from bow shock pulsars. The filaments […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Zhenxi Du, Saavidra Perera, Daniel Levinstein, Quinn Konopacky, Alex Madurowicz | Summary: The Earth’s atmosphere is comprised of turbulent layers that result in speckled and blurry images from ground-based visible and infrared observations. Adaptive Optics (AO) systems are employed to measure the perturbed wavefront with a wavefront […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Delon Shen, Nickolas Kokron, Joseph DeRose, Jeremy Tinker, Risa H. Wechsler | Summary: Precise and accurate predictions of the halo mass function for cluster mass scales in $wnu{rm CDM}$ cosmologies are crucial for extracting robust and unbiased cosmological information from upcoming galaxy cluster surveys. Here, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Philip Marshall | First 5 Authors: Alex Brooks, Philip Marshall, David Ozog, Md. Wasi-ur- Rahman, Lawrence Stewart | Summary: Modern high-end systems are increasingly becoming heterogeneous, providing users options to use general purpose Graphics Processing Units (GPU) and other accelerators for additional performance. High Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications are […]
Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Hiep Nguyen, N. M. McClure-Griffiths, James Dempsey, John M. Dickey, Min-Young Lee | Summary: We present the largest Galactic neutral hydrogen HI absorption survey to date, utilizing the Australian SKA Pathfinder Telescope at an unprecedented spatial resolution of 30”. This survey, GASKAP-HI, unbiasedly targets 2,714 continuum […]
Kavli Affiliate: Vahe Petrosian | First 5 Authors: Meng Jin, Gang Li, Nariaki Nitta, Wei Liu, Vahe Petrosian | Summary: Shocks driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are primary drivers of gradual solar energetic particle (SEP) events, posing significant risks to space technology and astronauts. Concurrently, particles accelerated at these shocks may also propagate back […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shawn Henderson | First 5 Authors: Christos Giannakopoulos, Clara Vergès, P. A. R. Ade, Zeeshan Ahmed, Mandana Amiri | Summary: The BICEP3 and BICEP Array polarimeters are small-aperture refracting telescopes located at the South Pole designed to measure primordial gravitational wave signatures in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization, predicted by inflation. Constraining […]
Kavli Affiliate: J. Todd Hoeksema | First 5 Authors: Soumyaranjan Dash, Marc L. DeRosa, Mausumi Dikpati, Xudong Sun, Sushant S. Mahajan | Summary: Knowledge of the global magnetic field distribution and its evolution on the Sun’s surface is crucial for modeling the coronal magnetic field, understanding solar wind dynamics, computing the heliospheric open flux distribution […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Erin Kado-Fong, Marla Geha, Yao-Yuan Mao, Mithi A. C. de los Reyes, Risa H. Wechsler | Summary: The redshift-dependent relation between galaxy stellar mass and star formation rate (the Star-Forming Sequence, or SFS) is a key observational yardstick for galaxy assembly. We use the SAGAbg-A sample […]
