Kavli Affiliate: Chihway Chang | First 5 Authors: Benjamin Levine, Javier Sánchez, Chihway Chang, Anja von der Linden, Eboni Collins | Summary: The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will survey the southern sky to create the largest galaxy catalog to date, and its statistical power demands an improved understanding […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jean Fan | Authors: Dee Velazquez and Jean Fan | Summary: Summary: Displaying proportional data across many spatially resolved coordinates is a challenging but important data visualization task, particularly for spatially resolved transcriptomics data. Scatter pie plots are one type of commonly used data visualization for such data but present perceptual challenges that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Gautam Venugopalan, Giorgio Gratta, , , | Summary: Microscopic devices are widely used in optomechanical experiments at the cutting-edge of precision experimental physics. Such devices often need to have high electrical conductivity but low reflectivity at optical wavelengths, which can be competing requirements for many commonly available […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Jennifer Mead, Kaley Brauer, Greg L. Bryan, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Alexander P. Ji | Summary: We investigate how stellar feedback from the first stars (Population III) distributes metals through the interstellar and intergalactic medium using the star-by-star cosmological hydrodynamics simulation, Aeos. We find that energy injected from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Qingjuan Yu | First 5 Authors: Xiao Guo, Qingjuan Yu, Youjun Lu, , | Summary: Massive black holes (MBHs) exist in the Galactic center (GC) and other nearby galactic nuclei. As natural outcome of galaxy mergers, some MBHs may have a black hole (BH) companion. In this paper, assuming that the MBHs in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Jianquan Ge, Ya Tao, Yi Zhou, , | Summary: For compact submanifolds in Euclidean and Spherical space forms with Ricci curvature bounded below by a function $alpha(n,k,H,c)$ of mean curvature, we prove that the submanifold is either isometric to the Einstein Clifford torus, or a topological sphere […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: H. N. Smitha, Alexander I. Shapiro, Veronika Witzke, Nadiia M. Kostogryz, Yvonne C. Unruh | Summary: Accurate calculations of starspot spectra are essential for multiple applications in astronomy. The current standard is to represent starspot spectra by spectra of stars that are cooler than the quiet star […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle, Belle II Collaborations, :, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal | Summary: We report measurements of the absolute branching fractions $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to D_s^{pm} X)$, $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to D^0/bar{D}^0 X)$, and $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to D^{pm} X)$, where the latter is measured for the first time. The results are based on a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Hongting Hou, Long Zhang, , , | Summary: Motivated by the recent observation of real-space edge modes with ultracold atoms [Braun et al., Nat. Phys. 20, 1306 (2024)], we investigate the preparation and detection of anomalous counterpropagating edge states — a defining feature of the anomalous Floquet […]
