Shared Properties of Merger-driven Long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Yacheng Kang, Jin-Ping Zhu, Yu-Han Yang, Ziming Wang, Eleonora Troja | Summary: The recent detections of bright optical/infrared kilonova signals following two long-duration gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs), GRB 211211A and GRB 230307A, have significantly challenged the traditional classification of GRBs. These merger-driven LGRBs may represent a distinct GRB […]

Unconventional polaronic ground state in superconducting LiTi$_2$O$_4$

Kavli Affiliate: Darrell G. Schlom | First 5 Authors: Zubia Hasan, Grace A. Pan, Harrison LaBollita, Austin Kaczmarek, Suk Hyun Sung | Summary: Geometrically frustrated lattices can display a range of correlated phenomena, ranging from spin frustration and charge order to dispersionless flat bands due to quantum interference. One particularly compelling family of such materials […]

A PAH deficit in the starburst core of a distant spiral galaxy

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Zhaoxuan Liu, John D. Silverman, Emanuele Daddi, Boris S. Kalita, Annagrazia Puglisi | Summary: We present high-resolution and spatially-matched observations with JWST and ALMA of a starburst galaxy (PACS-830) at $z=1.46$. The NIRCam observations mainly trace the stellar light while the CO ($J$=5–4) observations map the […]

The slow brightening of WNTR23bzdiq / WTP19aalzlk : Possible onset of common-envelope evolution in an asymptotic giant branch star?

Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Viraj Karambelkar, Mansi Kasliwal, Kishalay De, Danielle Frostig, Robert Stein | Summary: We present WNTR23bzdiq/WTP19aalzlk, a slow eruption of an early-asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star in M31 identified by the Wide-field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) near-infrared and the NEOWISE mid-infrared surveyors. This source brightened gradually over […]

The Dual Primordial Black Hole Formation Scenario

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Xinpeng Wang, Misao Sasaki, Ying-li Zhang, , | Summary: We report a novel mechanism where two families of primordial black holes (PBHs) may form at nearly the same comoving scales but at two different epochs. It is realized in two-stage inflation where a non-inflationary stage is sandwiched […]

High Chern Number Quantum Anomalous Hall States in Haldane-Graphene Multilayers

Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Yuejiu Zhao, Long Zhang, Fu-Chun Zhang, , | Summary: Quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) systems with high Chern number ($|C|>1$) are rare. This Letter introduces a Haldane-graphene multilayer heterostructure hosting QAH states with arbitrary Chern number. In a rhombohedral-stacked graphene $N$-layer, the Dirac points at $K_{pm}$ become $N^text{th}$-order […]

Late-time suppression of structure growth as a solution for the $S_8$ tension

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Ryo Terasawa, Masahiro Takada, Toshiki Kurita, Sunao Sugiyama, | Summary: The $S_8$ value inferred from the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Year 3 cosmic shear data, under the assumption of the flat $Lambda$CDM model, is 2-3$sigma$ lower than that inferred from observations of the early-time universe, such as […]
