Metal-Poor Stars Observed with the Southern African Large Telescope

Kaitlin C. Rasmussen, Joseph Zepeda, Timothy C. Beers +5

We present the first release of a large-scale study of relatively bright (V < 13.5) metal-poor stars observed with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT), based on high-resolu…

Neural Networks Fail to Learn Periodic Functions and How to Fix It

Liu Ziyin, Tilman Hartwig, Masahito Ueda

Previous literature offers limited clues on how to learn a periodic function using modern neural networks. We start with a study of the extrapolation properties of neural networks;…

Implications of inhomogeneous metal mixing for stellar archaeology

Yuta Tarumi, Tilman Hartwig, Mattis Magg

The first supernovae enrich the previously pristine gas with metals, out of which the next generation of stars form. Based on hydrodynamical simulations, we develop a new stochasti…

Radio Power from a Direct-Collapse Black Hole in CR7

Daniel J. Whalen, Mar Mezcua, Avery Meiksin +2

The leading contenders for the seeds of the first quasars are direct collapse black holes (DCBHs) formed during catastrophic baryon collapse in atomically-cooled halos at …
