Upcoming data from the large-scale structure surveys like Euclid, Vera C. Rubin Observatory, and the Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization, and Ices Explorer (SPHEREx) will be instrumental in advancing our understanding of the inflationary epoch. In this context, we present forecasts on PNG with tomographic angular power spectra derived from simulations of SPHEREx. We put forward the effects of redshift bin mismatch of galaxies as a significant source of systematic uncertainty in the estimation of both and galaxy linear halo bias. We simulate 500 SPHEREx-like galaxy density fields and divide the galaxies into redshift bins assuming Gaussian photometric redshift errors. We show that the misclassification of galaxies in redshift bins can result in strong apparent tensions on up to ∼3–6σ and up to ∼9–12σ on galaxy bias. To address this, we propose a scattering matrix formalism that mitigates bin mismatch of galaxies and enables unbiased estimation of cosmological parameters from tomographic angular clustering measurements.","PeriodicalId":501813,"journal":{"name":"The Astrophysical Journal","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144177005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Detection of such events would offer a new window on the immediate environment of the merger and provide an avenue to rapid localization. However, identifying fast transients in real-time in localization regions spanning hundreds to thousands of square degrees presents severe technical challenges. To address these challenges, we present a novel technique embodied in the Time Machine, a system featuring a two-stage voltage buffer and subsequent processing pipeline designed for the Long Wavelength Array at the Owens Valley Radio Observatory. This array is developed to instantaneously image the entire viewable sky. We detail the system’s buffer structure that allows data collection from several minutes before a trigger event, up to 30 minutes after an event. The processing of this voltage data involves beamforming and searching the full 90th-percentile localization region above the horizon with ms-time resolution and the ability to detect events with ∼100 Jy ms (7σ) fluence within the 55–85 MHz band. Furthermore, we incorporate an offline cross-correlation pipeline to improve positional accuracy of identified transients to within subarcminute levels.

To this end, we utilize deep, high-resolution [C II] emission-line data taken as part of the [C II] resolved interstellar medium (ISM) in star-forming galaxies with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (CRISTAL) survey. Excluding sources with kinematic evidence for gravitational interactions, we perform a rigorous stacking analysis of the remaining 15 galaxies to search for broad emission features that are too weak to detect in the individual spectra, finding only weak evidence that a broad component is needed to explain the composite spectrum. Additionally, such evidence is mostly driven by CRISTAL-02, which is already known to exhibit strong outflows in multiple ISM phases. Interpreting modest residuals in the stack at v ∼ 300 km s−1 as an outflow, we derive a mass outflow rate of = 26 ± 11 M⊙ yr−1 and a cold outflow mass-loading factor of ηm = 0.49 ± 0.20. This result holds for the subsample with the highest star formation rate surface density (ΣSFR > 1.93 M⊙ yr−1 kpc−2), but no such broad component is present in the composite of the lower-star-formation-rate density subsample. Our results imply that the process of star-formation-driven feedback may already be in place in typical galaxies at z = 5, but on average are not strong enough to completely quench ongoing star formation.","PeriodicalId":501813,"journal":{"name":"The Astrophysical Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144164814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, they represent ideal local laboratories for detailed multiwavelength studies of their properties and mechanisms that shape them. We report the first JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the BCD SBS 0335-052 E, analyzing MIR emission lines tracing different levels of ionization (e.g., [Ne ii], [S iv], [Ne iii], [O iv], [Ne v]) of the ionized gas. SBS 0335-052 E MIR emission is characterized by a bright point source, located in one of the youngest and most embedded stellar clusters (t ∼ 3 Myr, AV ∼ 15), and underlying extended high-ionization emission (i.e., [O iv] and [Ne v]) from the surroundings of the older and less dusty stellar clusters (t < 20 Myr, AV ∼ 8). From a comparison with state-of-the-art models, we can exclude shocks, X-ray binaries, and old stellar populations as the main sources of ionization. Interestingly, a 4%–8% contribution of a ∼105M⊙intermediate massive black hole (IMBH) is needed to justify the strong [Ne v]/[Ne ii] and would be consistent with optical/UV line ratios from previous studies. However, even IMBH models cannot explain the strongest [O iv]/[Ne iii]. Also, star-forming models (regardless of including X-ray binaries) struggle to reproduce even the lower ionization line ratios (e.g., [S iv]/[Ne ii]) typically observed in BCDs. Overall, while current models suggest the need to account for an accreting IMBH in this high-z analog, limitations still exist in predicting high-ionization emission lines (I.P. > 54 eV) when modeling these low-metallicity environments, and thus other sources of ionization cannot be fully ruled out.","PeriodicalId":501813,"journal":{"name":"The Astrophysical Journal","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144165152","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The parameters in these interactions are determined from either experimental information, if any, or chiral effective field theory or lattice quantum chromodynamics calculations of the hyperon potentials in nuclear matter around nuclear saturation density ρ0. We find that varying the high-density behavior of the symmetry energy Esym(ρ) can significantly change the critical density for hyperon appearance in neutron stars and thus the maximum mass MTOV of static hyperon stars. In particular, a symmetry energy that is soft around 2ρ0–3ρ0 but stiff above about 4ρ0 can lead to MTOV ≳ 2 M⊙ for hyperon stars and simultaneously be compatible with (1) the constraints on the equation of state of symmetric nuclear matter at suprasaturation densities obtained from flow data in heavy-ion collisions; (2) the microscopic calculations of the equation of state for pure neutron matter; (3) the tidal deformability of stars extracted from gravitational wave signal GW 170817; (4) the mass–radius relations of PSR J0030+0451, PSR J0740+6620, and PSR J0437-4715 measured from NICER; and (5) the observation of an unusually low mass and small radius in the central compact object of HESS J1731-347. Furthermore, the squared sound speed of the hyperon star matter naturally displays a strong peak structure around a baryon density of 3ρ0–4ρ0, consistent with a model-independent analysis of the multimessenger data.

Consistent with the previous findings of hard X-ray pulses, microwave pulses, Type III bursts, and decimetric spikes, Type I bursts exhibit their duration, bandwidth, peak intensity, and area sum with a power-law distribution. From the linear fitting in log–log space, we obtain the slope index between 1 and 3.5 for various parameters.

Recent polarization studies have further demonstrated that plasma instabilities are necessary for charge bunching that gives rise to coherent emission. The formation of charged solitons in the electron–positron plasma is the only known bunching mechanism that can be realized at these heights. More than five decades of observations have revealed a number of emission features that should emerge from any valid radio emission mechanism. We have carried out numerical calculations to find the features of average emission from curvature radiation due to charged solitons. The characteristic curvature radiation spectrum has been updated from the well-known one-dimensional dependence to a general two-dimensional form, and the contribution from each soliton along the observer’s line of sight (LOS) has been added to reproduce the pulsar emission. The outflowing plasma is formed by sparking discharges above the stellar surface that are located within concentric rings resembling the core–cone emission beam, and uniform distribution of solitons along any LOS has been assumed. The observed effects of radius-to-frequency mapping, where the lower-frequency emission originates from higher altitudes, are seen in this setup. The power-law spectrum and relative steepening of the core spectra with respect to the cones also emerge. The estimated polarization position angle reflects the geometrical configuration of pulsars as expected. These studies demonstrate the efficacy of coherent curvature radiation from charged solitons to reproduce the average observational features of pulsars.","PeriodicalId":501813,"journal":{"name":"The Astrophysical Journal","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144164810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we study the properties of flares that are observed in the early afterglow phase (up to a few thousand seconds). We split the sample into two groups: bursts with and without an X-ray plateau. We find that the distributions of flare properties are similar in each group; specifically, the peak time (tpk) of the flares and the ratio of the flare width to the flare peak time (w/tpk), which is found to be ≈1, regardless of the presence of a plateau. We discuss these results in view of the different theoretical models aimed at explaining the origin of the plateau. These results are difficult to explain by viewing angle effects or late-time energy injection, but do not contradict the idea that GRBs with X-ray plateaus have a low Lorentz factor, on the order of tens. For these GRBs, the dissipation processes that produce the flares naturally occur at smaller radii compared to GRBs with higher Lorentz factors, while the flares maintain a similar behavior. Our results therefore provide independent support for the idea that many GRBs have a Lorentz factor of a few tens rather than a few hundreds.","PeriodicalId":501813,"journal":{"name":"The Astrophysical Journal","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144165491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
