The Intrinsic Alignment of Galaxy Clusters and Impact of Projection Effects

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Jingjing Shi, Tomomi Sunayama, Toshiki Kurita, Masahiro Takada, Sunao Sugiyama | Summary: Galaxy clusters, being the most massive objects in the Universe, exhibit the strongest alignment with the large-scale structure. However, mis-identification of members due to projection effects from the large scale structure can occur. We studied […]

Cosmic birefringence tomography with polarized Sunyaev Zel’dovich effect

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Toshiya Namikawa, Ippei Obata, , , | Summary: We consider the polarized Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (pSZ) effect for a tomographic probe of cosmic birefringence, including all relevant terms of the pSZ effect in the CMB observables, some of which were ignored in the previous works. The pSZ effect produces […]

Dark matter search with a strongly-coupled hybrid spin system

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Kai Wei, Zitong Xu, Yuxuan He, Xiaolin Ma, Xing Heng | Summary: Observational evidence suggests the existence of dark matter (DM), which comprises approximately $84.4%$ of matter in the universe. Recent advances in tabletop quantum sensor technology have enabled searches for nongravitational interactions of DM. Our experiment […]

Dark Matter Search with a Resonantly-Coupled Hybrid Spin System

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Kai Wei, Zitong Xu, Yuxuan He, Xiaolin Ma, Xing Heng | Summary: Recent advances in tabletop quantum sensor technology have enabled searches for nongravitational interactions of dark matter (DM). Traditional axion DM experiments rely on sharp resonance, resulting in extensive scanning time to cover a wide mass […]

Universal Asymptotics for High Energy CFT Data

Kavli Affiliate: Hirosi Ooguri | First 5 Authors: Nathan Benjamin, Jaeha Lee, Hirosi Ooguri, David Simmons-Duffin, | Summary: Equilibrium finite temperature observables of a CFT can be described by a local effective action for background fields — a "thermal effective action." This effective action determines the asymptotic density of states of a CFT as a […]
