Tera-Hertz Counterparts to Fast Radio Bursts from Coherent Cherenkov Radiation by Tilted Bunches

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration extragalactic transients characterized by ultrahigh brightness temperatures, suggesting coherent emission mechanisms in extreme astrophysical processes. In this paper, we extend the bunched ...

Physical Characterization of Early Galaxies in the Webb’s First Deep Field SMACS J0723.3-7327

This paper highlights initial photometric analyses of JWST NIRCam imaging data in the sightline of SMACS0723, aiming to identify galaxies at redshift z > 7. By applying a conservative Lyman-break selection followed by photometric-redshift a...

Not All Sub-Neptune Exoplanets Have Magma Oceans

The evolution and structure of sub-Neptunes may be strongly influenced by interactions between the outer gaseous envelope of the planet and a surface magma ocean. However, given the wide variety of permissible interior structures of these p...

Correct Criterion of Crustal Failure Driven by Intense Magnetic Stress in Neutron Stars

Magnetar outbursts are powered by an intense magnetic field. The phenomenon has recently drawn significant attention because of a connection to some fast radio bursts that has been reported. Understanding magnetar outbursts may provide the ...

Investigating the Impact of Supernova Feedback on Satellites in Elliptical Galaxies

We investigate the influence of supernova (SN) feedback on the satellites of elliptical host galaxies using hydrodynamic simulations. Utilizing a modified version of the GADGET-3 code, we perform cosmological zoom-in simulations of 11 ellip...

A tetraquark 81-plet with $$J^{PC}=1^{-+}$$ J PC = 1 - + or a hybrid nonet

Abstract Confirming the existence of hybrid states remains challenging due to their experimental indistinguishability from tightly bound tetraquarks and loosely bound molecules. To address this issue, we employ QCD sum rules to systematical...

Radio Continuum and Water Maser Observations of the High-mass Protostar IRAS 19035+0641 A

We present Very Large Array 1.3 cm continuum and 22.2 GHz H _2 O maser observations of the high-mass protostellar object IRAS 19035+0641 A. Our observations unveil an elongated bipolar 1.3 cm continuum structure at scales ≲500 au, which, to...

Multiplexed quantum repeaters based on single-photon interference with mild stabilization

Abstract Quantum repeaters are pivotal in the physical layer of the quantum internet, and quantum repeaters capable of efficient entanglement distribution are necessary for its development. Quantum repeater schemes based on single-photon in...

The Be star o Cas is indeed the primary of a triple system

Analysis of radial velocities of two narrow absorption components in the Mg II 4481 Å line demonstrated that the secondary of the Be star o Cas is indeed a close binary system composed of two B7 stars orbiting each other with a period of ...

Cross-correlation transmission spectroscopy of ultra-hot Jupiters WASP-189b, HAT-P-57b, KELT-17b, and KELT-21b with GIANO-B

Since the discovery of the first exoplanet, significant efforts have been made to characterise their atmospheres. Ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) are of particular interest due to their extended and hot atmospheres. Although previous studies have...

Investigating the timelike Compton scattering in photon–proton interactions at the EIC

Abstract Information about the three-dimensional description of the quark and gluon content of hadrons, described by the generalized parton distributions (GPDs), can be probed by exclusive processes in electron–proton (ep) collisions. In th...

27 yr of Spaceborne IR Astronomy: An ISO, Spitzer, WISE, and NEOWISE Survey for Large-amplitude Variability in Young Stellar Objects

Infrared observations can probe photometric variability across the full evolutionary range of young stellar objects (YSOs), from deeply embedded protostars to pre-main-sequence stars with dusty disks. We present 3–8 μ m light curves extendi...

Integrability from point symmetries in a family of cosmological Horndeski Lagrangians

Abstract For a family of Horndeski theories, formulated in terms of a generalized Galileon model, we study the integrability of the field equations in a Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker space-time. We are interested in point transformati...

Effects of Background Solar Wind and Drag Force on the Propagation of Coronal-mass-ejection-driven Shocks

The propagation of interplanetary shocks, particularly those driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs), is still an outstanding question in heliophysics and space weather forecasting. Here, we address the effects of the ambient solar wind on ...

Cusp of Non-Gaussian Density of Particles for a Diffusing Diffusivity Model

We study a two state “jumping diffusivity” model for a Brownian process alternating between two different diffusion constants, D+>D−, with random waiting times in both states whose distribution is rather general. In the limit of long measur...

DPS mechanism for associated $$c\bar{c} b\bar{b}$$ cc¯bb¯ production in AA UPCs

Abstract We discuss the associated $$c\bar{c}$$ cc¯ and $$b\bar{b}$$ bb¯ quark pairs production in the double-parton scattering (DPS) process in ultraperipheral (UPCs) AA collisions. We derive an analogue of the inclusive DPS pocket formula...

Yang–Mills black holes in quasitopological gravity

Abstract In this paper, we formulate two new classes of black hole solutions in higher curvature quartic quasitopological gravity with nonabelian Yang–Mills theory. At first step, we consider the SO(n) and $$SO(n-1,1)$$ S O ( n - 1 , 1 ) se...

On the Anisotropic Velocity Distribution of Newborn Pickup Ions in the Heliosheath

The evolution of the velocity distribution of pickup ions is crucial for understanding the energetic neutral atom (ENA) fluxes observed by Interstellar Boundary Explorer. Pickup ions in the heliosheath contain two main components: those tra...

FEAST: JWST Uncovers the Emerging Timescales of Young Star Clusters in M83

We present JWST NIRCam observations of the emerging young star clusters (eYSCs) detected in the nearby spiral galaxy M83. The NIRcam mosaic encompasses the nuclear starburst, the bar, and the inner spiral arms. The eYSCs, detected in Pa α a...
