Ubiquitous Molecular Outflows in z > 4 Massive, Dusty Galaxies II. Momentum-Driven Winds Powered by Star Formation in the Early Universe

Justin S. Spilker, Manuel Aravena, Kedar A. Phadke +13

Galactic outflows of molecular gas are a common occurrence in galaxies and may represent a mechanism by which galaxies self-regulate their growth, redistributing gas that could oth…

Betelgeuse scope: Single-mode-fibers-assisted optical interferometer design for dedicated stellar activity monitoring

Narsireddy Anugu, Katie M. Morzinski, Josh Eisner +12

Betelgeuse has gone through a sudden shift in its brightness and dimmed mysteriously. This is likely caused by a hot blob of plasma ejected from Betelgeuse and then cooled to obscu…

Gravitational Test Beyond the First Post-Newtonian Order with the Shadow of the M87 Black Hole

Dimitrios Psaltis, Lia Medeiros, Pierre Christian +185

The 2017 Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations of the central source in M87 have led to the first measurement of the size of a black-hole shadow. This observation offers a new…

Biases and Cosmic Variance in Molecular Gas Abundance Measurements

Ryan P. Keenan, Daniel P. Marrone, Garrett K. Keating

Recent deep millimeter-wave surveys attempt to measure the carbon monoxide (CO) luminosity function and mean molecular gas density through blind detections of CO emission lines. Wh…

The Terahertz Intensity Mapper (TIM): a Next-Generation Experiment for Galaxy Evolution Studies

Joaquin Vieira, James Aguirre, C. Matt Bradford +22

Understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies over cosmic time is one of the foremost goals of astrophysics and cosmology today. The cosmic star formation rate has undergon…

The Shape of the Black Hole Photon Ring: A Precise Test of Strong-Field General Relativity

Samuel E. Gralla, Alexandru Lupsasca, Daniel P. Marrone

We propose a new test of strong-field general relativity (GR) based on the universal interferometric signature of the black hole photon ring. The photon ring is a narrow ring-shape…
