Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Curtis McCully, Saurabh W. Jha, Richard A. Scalzo, D. Andrew Howell, Ryan J. Foley | Summary: Type Iax supernovae represent the largest class of peculiar white-dwarf supernovae. The type Iax SN~2012Z in NGC 1309 is the only white dwarf supernova with a detected progenitor system in pre-explosion […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Anna-Christina Eilers, Joseph F. Hennawi, Frederick B. Davies, Robert A. Simcoe, | Summary: The extents of proximity zones of high-redshift quasars enable constraints on the timescales of quasar activity, which are fundamental for understanding the growth of the supermassive black holes (SMBHs) that power the quasars’ […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Étienne Artigau, Guillaume Hébrard, Charles Cadieux, Thomas Vandal, Neil J. Cook | Summary: We present the discovery of an $18.5pm0.5$M$_{rm Jup}$ brown dwarf (BD) companion to the M0V star TOI-1278. The system was first identified through a percent-deep transit in TESS photometry; further analysis showed it to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Angela V. Olinto | First 5 Authors: Claire Guépin, Roberto Aloisio, Luis A. Anchordoqui, Austin Cummings, John F. Krizmanic | Summary: High to ultrahigh energy neutrino detectors can uniquely probe the properties of dark matter $chi$ by searching for the secondary products produced through annihilation and/or decay processes. We evaluate the sensitivities to […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Tim Fuchs, David Gross, Peter Jung, Felix Krahmer, Richard Kueng | Summary: Low-rank matrix recovery problems arise naturally as mathematical formulations of various inverse problems, such as matrix completion, blind deconvolution, and phase retrieval. Over the last two decades, a number of works have rigorously analyzed the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Ziggy Pleunis, Deborah C. Good, Victoria M. Kaspi, Ryan Mckinven, Scott M. Ransom | Summary: We present a synthesis of fast radio burst (FRB) morphology (the change in flux as a function of time and frequency) as detected in the 400-800 MHz octave by the FRB […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Masoud Rafiei-Ravandi, Kendrick M. Smith, Dongzi Li, Kiyoshi W. Masui, Alexander Josephy | Summary: The CHIME/FRB Project has recently released its first catalog of fast radio bursts (FRBs), containing 492 unique sources. We present results from angular cross-correlations of CHIME/FRB sources with galaxy catalogs. We find […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: The CHIME/FRB Collaboration, :, Mandana Amiri, Bridget C. Andersen, Kevin Bandura | Summary: We present a catalog of 536 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment Fast Radio Burst (CHIME/FRB) Project between 400 and 800 MHz from 2018 July 25 to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yi Zhou, Ao Huang, Satoshi Hattori, , | Summary: In meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy, summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) is a recommended method to summarize the discriminant capacity of a diagnostic test in the presence of study-specific cutoff values and the area under the SROC (SAUC) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Neil D. Barrie, Chengcheng Han, Hitoshi Murayama, , | Summary: We find that the triplet Higgs of the Type II seesaw mechanism can simultaneously generate the neutrino masses and observed baryon asymmetry, while playing a role in inflation. We survey the allowed parameter space and determine that […]
