Towards 1% accurate galaxy cluster masses: Including baryons in weak-lensing mass inference. (arXiv:2104.06925v1 [astro-ph.CO]) <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Cromer_D/0/1/0/all/0/1">Dylan Cromer</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Battaglia_N/0/1/0/all/0/1">Nicholas Battaglia</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Miyatake_H/0/1/0/all/0/1">Hironao Miyatake</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Simet_M/0/1/0/all/0/1">Melanie Simet</a> Galaxy clusters are a promising probe of late-time structure growth, but constraints on cosmology from cluster abundances are currently limited by systematics in their inferred masses. One unmitigated systematic effect in weak-lensing mass inference is ignoring the presence of baryons and treating the entire cluster as a dark matter halo. In this work we present a new flexible model for cluster densities that captures both the baryonic and dark matter profiles, a new general technique for calculating the lensingRead More →

Influence of Ion-Neutral Damping on the Cosmic Ray Streaming Instability: MHD-PIC Simulations.

Ostriker</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Bai_X/0/1/0/all/0/1">Xue-Ning Bai</a> We explore the physics of the gyro-resonant cosmic ray streaming instability (CRSI) including the effects of ion-neutral (IN) damping. This is the main damping mechanism in (partially-ionized) atomic and molecular gas, which are the primary components of the interstellar medium (ISM) by mass. Limitation of CRSI by IN damping is important in setting the amplitude of Alfv’en waves that scatter cosmic rays and control galactic-scale transport. Our study employs the MHD-PIC hybrid fluid-kinetic numerical technique to follow linear growth asRead More →

Constructing angular distributions of neutrinos in core collapse supernova from zero-th and first moments calibrated by full Boltzmann neutrino transport. (arXiv:2104.05729v2 [astro-ph.HE] UPDATED) <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Nagakura_H/0/1/0/all/0/1">Hiroki Nagakura</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Johns_L/0/1/0/all/0/1">Lucas Johns</a> Two-moment neutrino transport methods have been widely used for developing theoretical models of core-collapse supernova (CCSN), since they substantially reduce the computational burden inherent in the multi-dimensional neutrino-radiation hydrodynamical simulations. The approximation, however, comes at a price; the detailed structure of angular distribution of neutrinos is sacrificed, that is the main drawback of this approach. In this paper, we develop a novel method by which to construct angular distributions of neutrinos from the zero-th and firstRead More →

Topological interaction of neutrino with photon in the magnetic field — Electroweak Hall effect.

Ultra-compact X-ray binaries as dual-line gravitational-wave sources. (arXiv:2103.09858v2 [astro-ph.HE] UPDATED) <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Suvorov_A/0/1/0/all/0/1">Arthur G. Suvorov</a> By virtue of their sub-hour orbital periods, ultra-compact X-ray binaries are promising sources for the space-borne gravitational-wave interferometers LISA, Taiji, and TianQin. Some of these systems contain a neutron star primary, whose spin period can be measured directly via pulse timing, or indirectly through rotational modulations of burst phenomena. It is pointed out here that since actively accreting stars, with spin frequencies in the hundreds of Hz, may continuously emit appreciable gravitational waves due to the presence of accretion-built mountains, toroidal magnetic fields, and/or $r$-mode oscillations, such binaries are also candidateRead More →

Complexity of non-trivial sound speed in inflation.

The vacuum state of curvature perturbation could be treated as squeezed states with two modes, characterized by the two most essential parameters: angle parameter $phi_k$ and squeezing parameter $r_k$. Through $Schrddot{o}dinger$ equation, one can obtain the corresponding evolution equation of $phi_k$ and $r_k$. Subsequently, the quantum circuit complexity between a squeezed vacuum state and squeezed states are evaluated in scalar curvature perturbation with a type of non-trivial sound speed. OurRead More →

Intermittent mildly magnetized jets as the source of GRBs.

Previous numerical studies have shown that hydrodynamic (i.e., unmagnetized) jets that are expelled from a variable engine are subject to strong mixing of jet and cocoon material, which strongly inhibits the GRB emission. In this paper we conduct 3D RMHD simulations of mildly magnetized jets with power modulation over durations of 0.1 s and 1 s,Read More →

Strategies to Detect Dark-Matter Decays with Line-Intensity Mapping. (arXiv:2012.00771v3 [astro-ph.CO] UPDATED) <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Bernal_J/0/1/0/all/0/1">Jos&#xe9; Luis Bernal</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Caputo_A/0/1/0/all/0/1">Andrea Caputo</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/astro-ph/1/au:+Kamionkowski_M/0/1/0/all/0/1">Marc Kamionkowski</a> The nature of dark matter is a longstanding mystery in cosmology, which can be studied with laboratory or collider experiments, as well as astrophysical and cosmological observations. In this work, we propose realistic and efficient strategies to detect radiative products from dark-matter decays with line-intensity mapping (LIM) experiments. This radiation will behave as a line interloper for the atomic and molecular spectral lines targeted by LIM surveys. The most distinctive signatures of the contribution from dark-matter radiative decays are an extra anisotropy on theRead More →
