Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Xuheng Ding, Simon Birrer, Tommaso Treu, John D. Silverman, | Summary: Galight is a Python-based open-source package that can be used to perform two-dimensional model fitting of optical and near-infrared images to characterize the light distribution of galaxies with components including a disk, bulge, bar, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Pablo Villanueva-Domingo, Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Shy Genel, Federico Marinacci | Summary: Understanding the halo-galaxy connection is fundamental in order to improve our knowledge on the nature and properties of dark matter. In this work we build a model that infers the mass of a halo […]
Kavli Affiliate: Takaaki Kajita | First 5 Authors: M. Sajjad Athar, Steven W. Barwick, Thomas Brunner, Jun Cao, Mikhail Danilov | Summary: This review demonstrates the unique role of the neutrino by discussing in detail the physics of and with neutrinos. We deal with neutrino sources, neutrino oscillations, absolute masses, interactions, the possible existence of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Stavros Katsanevas | First 5 Authors: David McClelland, Harald Lueck, Rana Adhikari, Masaki Ando, GariLynn Billingsley | Summary: To deliver on the promise of next generation gravitational-wave observatories, a sustained and coordinated detector research and development program is required. This report examines in detail the wide range of nearer- and longer-term detector R&D […]
Kavli Affiliate: Takaaki Kajita | First 5 Authors: Vicky Kalogera, B. S. Sathyaprakash, Matthew Bailes, Marie-Anne Bizouard, Alessandra Buonanno | Summary: The next generation of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors will observe coalescences of black holes and neutron stars throughout the cosmos, thousands of them with exceptional fidelity. The Science Book is the result of a 3-year […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stavros Katsanevas | First 5 Authors: Stavros Katsanevas, Gary Sanders, Beverly Berger, Gabriela González, James Hough | Summary: The construction of a global network of detectors is the cornerstone to scientific success for 3rd generation gravitational wave astronomy. If carried out with a vision to the future, the third generation implementation, in its […]
