Exact CMB B-mode power spectrum from anisotropic cosmic birefringence

toshiyan/biref-aniso-bb 21 Apr 2024

We also constrain the amplitude of the angular power spectrum of the scale-invariant anisotropic cosmic birefringence using the SPTpol $B$-mode power spectrum.

A Self-Consistent Treatment of the Line-Driving Radiation Force for Active Galactic Nuclei Outflows: New Prescriptions for Simulations

aslattimer/agnwind 18 Apr 2024

Flows driven by photons have been studied for almost a century, and a quantitative description of the radiative forces on atoms and ions is important for understanding a wide variety of systems with outflows and accretion disks, such as active galactic nuclei.

The formation of transiting circumplanetary debris discs from the disruption of satellite systems during planet-planet scattering

ajmustill/moons 18 Apr 2024

The debris trails arising from these events are often tilted at tens of degrees to the planetary orbit, consistent with the inclinations of the observed discs.

Determining the time before or after a galaxy merger event

wjpearson/tngmergertime 17 Apr 2024

These data were then used to train a residual network (ResNet50), a Swin Transformer (Swin), a convolutional neural network (CNN), and an autoencoder (using a single latent neuron) to reproduce the merger time.

Robust parameter estimation within minutes on gravitational wave signals from binary neutron star inspirals

thibeauwouters/turbope-bns 17 Apr 2024

Wong et al. introduced Jim arXiv:2302. 05333, a parameter estimation pipeline that combines relative binning and jax features such as hardware acceleration and automatic differentiation into a normalizing flow-enhanced sampler for gravitational waves from binary black hole (BBH) mergers.

Non-linear power spectrum and forecasts for Generalized Cubic Covariant Galileon

nebblu/actio-reactio 17 Apr 2024

To fully exploit the data from next generation surveys, we need an accurate modelling of the matter power spectrum up to non-linear scales.
