Exploring the correlation between dark matter, intracluster light, and globular cluster distribution in SMACS0723 (2023)
Journal Article
Diego, J. M., Pascale, M., Frye, B., Zitrin, A., Broadhurst, T., Mahler, G., …Montes, M. (2023). Exploring the correlation between dark matter, intracluster light, and globular cluster distribution in SMACS0723. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 679, Article A159. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202345868

We present a free-form model of SMACS0723, the first cluster observed with JWST. This model does not make any strong assumptions on the distribution of mass (mostly made up of dark matter) in the cluster and we use it to study the possible correlatio...

We present the first results of the eXtreme UV Environments (XUE) James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) program, which focuses on the characterization of planet-forming disks in massive star-forming regions. These regions are likely representative of the... Read More about XUE: Molecular Inventory in the Inner Region of an Extremely Irradiated Protoplanetary Disk.

The two-point correlation function covariance with fewer mocks (2023)
Journal Article
Trusov, S., Zarrouk, P., Cole, S., Norberg, P., Zhao, C., Aguilar, J. N., …Zhou, Z. (2024). The two-point correlation function covariance with fewer mocks. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 527(3), 9048-9060. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad3710

We present FITCOV an approach for accurate estimation of the covariance of two-point correlation functions that requires fewer mocks than the standard mock-based covariance. This can be achieved by dividing a set of mocks into jackknife regions and f... Read More about The two-point correlation function covariance with fewer mocks.

Deuterium spectroscopy for enhanced bounds on physics beyond the standard model (2023)
Journal Article
Potvliege, R. M., Nicolson, A., Jones, M. P. A., & Spannowsky, M. (2023). Deuterium spectroscopy for enhanced bounds on physics beyond the standard model. Physical Review A, 108(5), Article 052825. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.108.052825

We consider the impact of combining precision spectroscopic measurements made in atomic hydrogen with similar measurements made in atomic deuterium on the search for physics beyond the standard model. Specifically, we consider the wide class of model... Read More about Deuterium spectroscopy for enhanced bounds on physics beyond the standard model.

A probable Keplerian disk feeding an optically revealed massive young star. (2023)
Journal Article
McLeod, A. F., Klaassen, P. D., Reiter, M., Henshaw, J., Kuiper, R., & Ginsburg, A. (2024). A probable Keplerian disk feeding an optically revealed massive young star. Nature, 625, 55-59. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-023-06790-2

The canonical picture of star formation involves disk-mediated accretion, with Keplerian accretion disks and associated bipolar jets primarily observed in nearby, low-mass young stellar objects (YSOs). Recently, rotating gaseous structures and Kepler... Read More about A probable Keplerian disk feeding an optically revealed massive young star..

Conceptual Design of an On-Axis 6 m Space Telescope at the Diffraction Limit: Characteristics, Performance and Advantages (2023)
Journal Article

This paper presents the conceptual design of an on-axis 6 metre aperture space telescope designed to cover a field of view of ±0.2 degrees with an optical quality at the diffraction limit within a spectral range between 0.5 μm and 2.5 μm. The plate s... Read More about Conceptual Design of an On-Axis 6 m Space Telescope at the Diffraction Limit: Characteristics, Performance and Advantages.

Scattering amplitudes of fermions on monopoles (2023)
Journal Article
Khoze, V. V. (2023). Scattering amplitudes of fermions on monopoles. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023(11), Article 214. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep11%282023%29214

We consider scattering processes involving massless fermions and ’t Hooft-Polyakov magnetic monopoles in a minimal SU(2) model and in the Grand Unified SU(5) theory. We construct expressions for on-shell amplitudes for these processes in the J = 0 pa... Read More about Scattering amplitudes of fermions on monopoles.
