Accelerated gas flow along Ophiuchus B44 filament: Breaking Position-Position-Velocity degeneracy
J. Alves, C. Zucker, C. Lada +15
(Abridged) Stellar feedback from massive stars in the Upper-Sco has been proposed to have reshaped the gas in the nearby Ophiuchus complex. In this framework, feedback organizes th…
Inferring Evidence from Nested Sampling Data via Information Field Theory
Margret Westerkamp, Jakob Roth, Philipp Frank +2
Nested sampling provides an estimate of the evidence of a Bayesian inference problem via probing the likelihood as a function of the enclosed prior volume. However, the lack of pre…

Quantum Measurement and Objective Classical Reality
Vishal Johnson, Philipp Frank, Torsten Enßlin
We explore quantum measurement in the context of Everettian unitary quantum mechanics and construct an explicit unitary measurement procedure. We propose the existence of prior cor…
A parsec-scale Galactic 3D dust map out to 1.25 kpc from the Sun
Gordian Edenhofer, Catherine Zucker, Philipp Frank +4
High-resolution 3D maps of interstellar dust are critical for probing the underlying physics shaping the structure of the interstellar medium, and for foreground correction of astr…
Attention to Entropic Communication
Torsten Enßlin, Carolin Weidinger, Philipp Frank
The concept of attention, numerical weights that emphasize the importance of particular data, has proven to be very relevant in artificial intelligence. Relative entropy (RE, aka K…
Reconstructing Galactic magnetic fields from local measurements for backtracking ultra-high-energy cosmic rays
Alexandros Tsouros, Gordian Edenhofer, Torsten Enßlin +2
(abridged) Ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are highly energetic charged particles with energies exceeding eV. Identifying their sources and production mechanism ca…
A 3D View of Orion: I. Barnard's Loop
Michael M. Foley, Alyssa Goodman, Catherine Zucker +11
Barnard's Loop is a famous arc of H emission located in the Orion star-forming region. Here, we provide evidence of a possible formation mechanism for Barnard's Loop and compare…
Bayesian statistics approach to imaging of aperture synthesis data: RESOLVE meets ALMA
Łukasz Tychoniec, Fabrizia Guglielmetti, Philipp Arras +2
The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is currently revolutionizing observational astrophysics. The aperture synthesis technique provides angular resolution otherw…
Bayesian and Machine Learning Methods in the Big Data era for astronomical imaging
Fabrizia Guglielmetti, Philipp Arras, Michele Delli Veneri +4
The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array with the planned electronic upgrades will deliver an unprecedented amount of deep and high resolution observations. Wider fields of…
The Musca molecular cloud: The perfect "filament" is still a sheet
A. Tritsis, F. Bouzelou, R. Skalidis +3
The true 3-dimensional (3D) morphology of the Musca molecular cloud is a topic that has received significant attention lately. Given that Musca does not exhibit intense star-format…
A MeerKAT-meets-LOFAR Study of MS 1455.0+2232: A 590 kiloparsec 'Mini'-Halo in a Sloshing Cool-Core Cluster
C. J. Riseley, K. Rajpurohit, F. Loi +13
Radio mini-haloes are poorly-understood, moderately-extended diffuse radio sources that trace the presence of magnetic fields and relativistic electrons on scales of hundreds of ki…
Exploring the MeV Sky with a Combined Coded Mask and Compton Telescope: The Galactic Explorer with a Coded Aperture Mask Compton Telescope (GECCO)
Elena Orlando, Eugenio Bottacini, Alexander Moiseev +33
The sky at MeV energies is currently poorly explored. Here we present an innovative mission concept that builds on and improves past and currently proposed missions at such energie…
Faint objects in motion: the new frontier of high precision astrometry
