The Distance to NGC 1316 (Fornax A) From Observations of Four Type Ia Supernovae
Maximilian Stritzinger, Chris Burns, Mark Phillips +13
The giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 (Fornax A) is a well-studied member of the Fornax Cluster and a prolific producer of Type Ia supernovae, having hosted four observed events sin…
Cover Your Bases: Asymptotic Distributions of the Profile Likelihood Ratio When Constraining Effective Field Theories in High-Energy Physics
Florian U. Bernlochner, Daniel C. Fry, Stephen B. Menary +1
We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the profile likelihood ratio (PLR) when constraining effective field theories (EFTs) and show that Wilks' theorem is often violated, m…
The IMACS Cluster Building Survey: V. Further Evidence for Starburst Recycling from Quantitative Galaxy Morphologies
Louis E. Abramson, Alan Dressler, Michael D. Gladders +5
Using and band imaging obtained as part of the IMACS Cluster Building Survey (ICBS) we measure Sérsic indices for 2160 field and cluster galaxies at . U…
Truncation orders, external constraints, and the determination of
Eric Persson, Florian Bernlochner
We present a model selection framework for the extraction of the CKM matrix element from exclusive decays. By framing the truncation of the Boyd-Grinste…
First extraction of inclusive from moments
Florian Bernlochner, Matteo Fael, Kevin Olschewsky +4
We present the first determination of from inclusive using moments of the dilepton invariant mass, . These moments are reparametrization i…
Clustering of Very Red Galaxies in the Las Campanas IR Survey
Patrick McCarthy, Ray Carlberg, Ron Marzke +11
We report results from the first 1000 square arc-minutes of the Las Campanas IR survey. We have imaged 1 square degree of high latitude sky in six distinct fields to a 5-sigma H-ba…
