Point Containment Queries on Ray Tracing Cores for AMR Flow Visualization

Stefan Zellmann, Daniel Seifried, Nate Morrical +5

Modern GPUs come with dedicated hardware to perform ray/triangle intersections and bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) traversal. While the primary use case for this hardware is photor…

The Landscape of Galaxies Harboring Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei in the Local Universe

Sierra A. Dodd, Jamie A. P. Law-Smith, Katie Auchettl +2

We study the properties of the host galaxies of Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei (CL AGNs) with the aim of understanding the conditions responsible for triggering CL activity.…

The Young Supernova Experiment: Survey Goals, Overview, and Operations

D. O. Jones, R. J. Foley, G. Narayan +68

Time domain science has undergone a revolution over the past decade, with tens of thousands of new supernovae (SNe) discovered each year. However, several observational domains, in…

Obstacles to Constructing de Sitter Space in String Theory

Michael Dine, Jamie A. P. Law-Smith, Shijun Sun +2

There have been many attempts to construct de Sitter space-times in string theory. While arguably there have been some successes, this has proven challenging, leading to the de Sit…

The Host Galaxies of Tidal Disruption Events

K. Decker French, Thomas Wevers, Jamie Law-Smith +2

Recent studies of Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) have revealed unexpected correlations between the TDE rate and the large-scale properties of the host galaxies. In this review, we…

Double-Peaked Balmer Emission Indicating Prompt Accretion Disk Formation in an X-Ray Faint Tidal Disruption Event

Tiara Hung, Ryan J. Foley, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +13

We present the multi-wavelength analysis of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT~2018hyz (ASASSN-18zj). From follow-up optical spectroscopy, we detect the first unambiguous case of…
