Constraint on the inflow/outflow rates in star-forming galaxies at z~1.4 from molecular gas observations

Kavli Affiliate: Naoyuki Tamura | First 5 Authors: Akifumi Seko, Kouji Ohta, Kiyoto Yabe, Bunyo Hatsukade, Masayuki Akiyama | Summary: We constrain the rate of gas inflow into and outflow from a main-sequence star-forming galaxy at z~1.4 by fitting a simple analytic model for the chemical evolution in a galaxy to the observational data of […]

Light yield of an undoped CsI crystal coupled directly to a photomultiplier tube at 77 Kelvin

Kavli Affiliate: Masaki Yamashita | First 5 Authors: Jing Liu, Masaki Yamashita, Arun Kumar Soma, , | Summary: A light yield of 20.4 $pm$ 0.8 photoelectrons/keV was achieved with an undoped CsI crystal coupled directly to a photomultiplier tube at 77 Kelvin. This is by far the largest yield in the world achieved with CsI […]

S-folds and 4d N=3 superconformal field theories

Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Ofer Aharony, Yuji Tachikawa, Kiyonori Gomi, , | Summary: S-folds are generalizations of orientifolds in type IIB string theory, such that the geometric identifications are accompanied by non-trivial S-duality transformations. They were recently used by Garcia-Etxebarria and Regalado to provide the first construction of four dimensional N=3 […]

Towards a mathematical definition of Coulomb branches of $3$-dimensional $mathcal N=4$ gauge theories, II

Kavli Affiliate: Hiraku Nakajima | First 5 Authors: Alexander Braverman, Michael Finkelberg, Hiraku Nakajima, , | Summary: Consider the $3$-dimensional $mathcal N=4$ supersymmetric gauge theory associated with a compact Lie group $G_c$ and its quaternionic representation $mathbf M$. Physicists study its Coulomb branch, which is a noncompact hyper-K"ahler manifold with an $mathrm{SU}(2)$-action, possibly with singularities. […]
