This is an exciting time for stellar astrophysics as
high-cadence time domain surveys (Gaia, PTF, ZTF, ATLAS, Kepler,
TESS, and, in the near future, the Vera Rubin Observatory) are
revolutionizing the landscape of stellar studies by allowing
the...
Abstract: MAGIS-100 is a macroscopic
‘Quantum-Sensor’, based on a 100-meter light-pulse atom
interferometer, being built at Fermilab by an international
collaboration, in search of the “dark” sector of the universe
(“dark” matter and energy) and...
The cosmic microwave background is a sensitive probe of
early-Universe physics, and yet fundamental constants at
recombination can differ from their present day values due to
degeneracies in the standard cosmological model. Such scenarios
have been...
The study of the many processes that take place within
astrophysical systems e.g., magnetic reconnection, shocks, and
turbulence is made very challenging by the large separation
distances between us and these systems. This is especially true
for...
Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars immersed in strong
electromagnetic fields that emit twin beams of electromagnetic
radiation. However, the plasma composition and structure in the
region surrounding pulsars, called magnetospheres, and the...
The VLA Sky Survey (VLASS) has delivered the first deep,
unbiased view of the northern radio sky, offering an unprecedented
opportunity to perform a systematic and unbiased survey of the
late-time radio emission from the tens of thousands of...
