Measurements of the Zodiacal Light Absolute Intensity through Fraunhofer Absorption Line Spectroscopy with CIBER

Posted by klaurent April 14, 2021Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: James Bock | First 5 Authors: Phillip Korngut, Min Gyu Kim, Toshiaki Arai, Priyadarshini Bangale, James Bock | Summary: Scattered sunlight from the interplanetary dust (IPD) cloud in our Solar system presents a serious foreground challenge for spectro-photometric measurements of the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL). In this work, we report on measurements of […]

Mass and Environment as Drivers of Galaxy Evolution. IV. On the Quenching of Massive Central Disk Galaxies in The Local Universe

Posted by klaurent April 14, 2021Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Chengpeng Zhang, Yingjie Peng, Luis C. Ho, Roberto Maiolino, Alvio Renzini | Summary: The phenomenological study of evolving galaxy populations has shown that star forming galaxies can be quenched by two distinct processes: mass quenching and environment quenching (Peng et al. 2010). To explore the mass quenching […]

Emergence of nonlinear friction from quantum fluctuations

Posted by klaurent April 13, 2021Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Mario F. Gely, Adrián Sanz Mora, Shun Yanai, Rik van der Spek, Daniel Bothner | Summary: Nonlinear damping, a force of friction that depends on the amplitude of motion, plays an important role in many electrical, mechanical and even biological oscillators. In novel technologies such as […]

Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Mario F. Gely, Adrián Sanz Mora, Shun Yanai, Rik van der Spek, Daniel Bothner | Summary: Nonlinear damping, the change in damping rate with the amplitude of oscillations plays an important role in many electrical, mechanical and even biological oscillators. In novel technologies such as carbon […]

Selectivity in yttrium manganese oxide synthesis via local chemical potentials in hyperdimensional phase space

Posted by klaurent April 13, 2021Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Paul K. Todd, Matthew J. McDermott, Christopher L. Rom, Adam A. Corrao, Jonathan J. Denney | Summary: In sharp contrast to molecular synthesis, materials synthesis is generally presumed to lack selectivity. The few known methods of designing selectivity in solid-state reactions have limited scope, such as […]

Characterization of Carrier Cooling Bottleneck in Silicon Nanoparticles by Extreme Ultraviolet (XUV) Transient Absorption Spectroscopy

Posted by April 12, 2021Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Ilana J. Porter, Angela Lee, Scott K. Cushing, Hung-Tzu Chang, Justin C. Ondry | Summary: Silicon nanoparticles have the promise to surpass the theoretical efficiency limit of single-junction silicon photovoltaics by the creation of a "phonon bottleneck", a theorized slowing of the cooling rate of hot […]

Subaru High-z Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs). XIII. Large-scale Feedback and Star Formation in a Low-Luminosity Quasar at z = 7.07 on the Local Black Hole to Host Mass Relation

Posted by April 12, 2021Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Takuma Izumi, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Seiji Fujimoto, Masafusa Onoue, Michael A. Strauss | Summary: We present ALMA [CII] 158 $mu$m line and underlying far-infrared (FIR) continuum emission observations ($0”.70 times 0”.56$ resolution) toward HSC J124353.93$+$010038.5 (J1243$+$0100) at $z = 7.07$, the only low-luminosity ($M_{rm 1450} > -25$ […]

The stellar mass in and around isolated central galaxies: connections to the total mass distribution through galaxy-galaxy lensing in the Hyper Suprime-Cam survey

Posted by klaurent April 12, 2021Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Naoki Yasuda | First 5 Authors: Wenting Wang, Xiangchong Li, Jingjing Shi, Jiaxin Han, Naoki Yasuda | Summary: Using photometric galaxies from the HSC survey, we measure the stellar mass density profiles for satellite galaxies as a function of the projected distance, $r_p$, to isolated central galaxies (ICGs) selected from SDSS/DR7 spectroscopic galaxies […]
