Cosmic neutrinos provide a unique window into the otherwise hidden mechanism of particle acceleration in astrophysical objects. The IceCube Collaboration recently reported the likely association of one high-energy neutrino with a flare from the relativistic jet of an active galaxy pointed towards the Earth. However a combined analysis of many similar active galaxies revealed no excess from the broader population, leaving the vast majority of the cosmic neutrino flux unexplained. Here we present the likely association of a radio-emitting tidal disruption event, AT2019dsg, with a second high-energy neutrino. AT2019dsg was identified as part of our systematic search for optical counterparts to high-energy neutrinos with the Zwicky Transient Facility. The probability of finding any coincident radio-emitting tidal disruption event by chance is 0.5%, while the probability of finding one as bright in bolometric energy flux as AT2019dsg is 0.2%. Our electromagnetic observations can be explained through a multizone model, with radio analysis revealing a central engine, embedded in a UV photosphere, that powers an extended synchrotron-emitting outflow. This provides an ideal site for petaelectronvolt neutrino production. Assuming that the association is genuine, our observations suggest that tidal disruption events with mildly relativistic outflows contribute to the cosmic neutrino flux. | 9 |

The strict periodicity of pulsars is the primary source of information we have to learn about their nature and environment, it allows us to challenge general relativity and measure gravitational waves. Identifying such a periodicity from a discrete set of arrival times is a difficult algorithmic problem, particularly when the pulsar is in a binary system. This challenge is especially acute in $\gamma$-ray pulsar astronomy as there are hundreds of unassociated Fermi-LAT sources awaiting a timing solution that will reveal their nature, and may allow adding them to pulsar timing arrays. The same issue arises when attempting to recover a strict periodicity for repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs). Such a detection would be a major breakthrough, providing us with the FRB source's age, magnetic field, and binary orbit. The problem of recovering a timing solution from sparse time-of-arrival (TOA) data is currently unsolvable for pulsars in binary systems and incredibly hard even for single pulsars. In a series of papers, we will develop an algorithmic set of tools that will allow us to solve the timing recovery problem under different regimes. In this paper, we frame the timing recovery problem as the problem of finding a short vector in a lattice and obtain the solution using off-the-shelf lattice reduction and sieving techniques. As a proof of concept, we solve PSR J0318+0253, a millisecond $\gamma$-ray pulsar discovered by FAST in a $\gamma$-ray directed search, in a few CPU-minutes. We discuss the assumptions of the standard lattice techniques and quantify their performance and limitations. | 9 |
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is an experiment to measure the signature of a gravitationalwave background from inflation in the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). CLASS is a multi-frequency array of four telescopes operating from a high-altitude site in the Atacama Desert in Chile. CLASS will survey 70% of the sky in four frequency bands centered at 38, 93, 148, and 217 GHz, which are chosen to straddle the Galactic-foreground minimum while avoiding strong atmospheric emission lines. This broad frequency coverage ensures that CLASS can distinguish Galactic emission from the CMB. The sky fraction of the CLASS survey will allow the full shape of the primordial B-mode power spectrum to be characterized, including the signal from reionization at low ɺ. Its unique combination of large sky coverage, control of systematic errors, and high sensitivity will allow CLASS to measure or place upper limits on the tensor-to-scalar ratio at a level of r = 0:01 and make a cosmic-variance-limited measurement of the optical depth to the surface of last scattering, Ƭ . | 9 |

In this article, we speculate on the possible mechanisms for Li enhancement origin in RGB stars based on a large data set of around 340 299 stars collected from the GALAH survey combined with the Gaia astrometry. Data has 51 982 low mass (M ≤ 2 M<SUB>⊙</SUB>) RGB stars with reliable atmospheric parameters. The data set shows a well-populated RGB with well-defined luminosity bump and red clump with significant number of stars at each of these two key phases. We found 335 new Li-rich RGB stars with Li abundance, A(Li) ≥ 1.80 ± 0.14 dex, of which 20 are super Li-rich with A(Li) ≥ 3.20 dex. Most of them appear to be in the red clump region which, when combined with stellar evolutionary time-scales on RGB, indicates that the Li enhancement origin may lie at RGB tip during He-flash rather than by external source of merging of sub-stellar objects or during luminosity bump evolution. Kinematic properties of sample stars suggest that Li-rich giants are relatively more prevalent among giants of thin disc compared to thick disc and halo. | 9 |

Cosmic Dawn (CD) and Epoch of Reionization (EoR) are epochs of the Universe which host invaluable information about the cosmology and astrophysics of X-ray heating and hydrogen reionization. Radio interferometric observations of the 21-cm line at high redshifts have the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the Universe during this time. However, modelling the evolution of these epochs is particularly challenging due to the complex interplay of many physical processes. This makes it difficult to perform the conventional statistical analysis using the likelihood-based Markov-Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, which scales poorly with the dimensionality of the parameter space. In this paper, we show how the Simulation-Based Inference through Marginal Neural Ratio Estimation (MNRE) provides a step towards evading these issues. We use 21cmFAST to model the 21-cm power spectrum during CD-EoR with a six-dimensional parameter space. With the expected thermal noise from the Square Kilometre Array, we are able to accurately recover the posterior distribution for the parameters of our model at a significantly lower computational cost than the conventional likelihood-based methods. We further show how the same training data set can be utilized to investigate the sensitivity of the model parameters over different redshifts. Our results support that such efficient and scalable inference techniques enable us to significantly extend the modelling complexity beyond what is currently achievable with conventional MCMC methods. | 9 |

A new class of cosmological tests is proposed which examines the dependence on redshift z of the dispersion in peculiar velocities, virial mass, and mass-luminosity ratios of galactic clusters. Data on galactic clusters with redshifts up to z ≈ 2 are accessible to modern instruments in the visible and x-ray ranges. Clusters of galaxies are less susceptible to evolutionary effects than other objects at large z, so that the proposed tests offer promise for analysis of cosmological models. | 9 |

We present a detailed analysis of the X-ray/IR fast variability of the Black-Hole Transient GX 339-4 during its low/hard state in 2008 August. Thanks to simultaneous high time resolution observations made with the VLT and RXTE, we performed the first characterization of the subsecond variability in the near-infrared band - and of its correlation with the X-rays - for a low-mass X-ray binary, using both time- and frequency-domain techniques. We found a power-law correlation between the X-ray and infrared fluxes when measured on time-scales of 16 s, with a marginally variable slope, steeper than the one found on time-scales of days at similar flux levels. We suggest the variable slope - if confirmed - could be due to the infrared flux being a non-constant combination of both optically thin and optically thick synchrotron emission from the jet, as a result of a variable self-absorption break. From cross spectral analysis, we found an approximately constant infrared time lag of ≈0.1 s, and a very high coherence of ∼90 per cent on time-scales of tens of seconds, slowly decreasing towards higher frequencies. Finally, we report on the first detection of a linear rms-flux relation in the emission from a low-mass X-ray binary jet, on time-scales where little correlation is found between the X-rays and the jet emission itself. This suggests that either the inflow variations and jet IR emission are coupled by a non-linear or time-variable transform, or that the IR rms-flux relation is not transferred from the inflow to the jet, but is an intrinsic property of emission processes in the jet. | 9 |

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration, bright ($\sim$Jy) extragalactic bursts, whose production mechanism is still unclear. Recently, two repeating FRBs were found to have a physically associated persistent radio source of non-thermal origin. These two FRBs have unusually large Faraday rotation measure values likely tracing a dense magneto-ionic medium, consistent with synchrotron radiation originating from a nebula surrounding the FRB source. Recent theoretical arguments predict that, if the observed Faraday rotation measure mostly arises from the persistent radio source region, there should be a simple relation between the luminosity of the latter and the first. We report here the detection of a third, less luminous persistent radio source associated with the repeating FRB source FRB20201124A at a distance of 413 Mpc, significantly expanding the predicted relation into the low luminosity - low Faraday rotation measure regime ($<$1000 rad m-2). At lower values of the Faraday rotation measure, the expected radio luminosity falls below the limit of detection threshold for present-day radio telescopes. These findings support the idea that the persistent radio sources observed so far are generated by a nebula in the FRB environment, and that FRBs with low Faraday rotation measure may not show a persistent radio source because of a weaker magneto-ionic medium. This is generally consistent with models invoking a young magnetar as the central engine of the FRB, where the surrounding ionized nebula - or the interacting shock in a binary system - powers the persistent radio source. | 9 |

The magnetic and velocity fields in sunspots are highly structured on small spatial scales which are encoded in the Stokes profiles. The Stokes profiles are in turn, derived from a sequence of polarization modulations on the incoming light that are imaged using an analyser-detector combination. Our aim is to identify Stokes profiles in a sunspot which exhibit spectral characteristics that deviate from those associated with the Evershed flow and their corresponding spatial distribution. To that end, we employ the k-means clustering routine to classify Stokes V spectra in the penumbra of a regular, unipolar sunspot, that also comprises a granular and a filamentary light bridge. We find that 75% of the penumbral region, corresponding to about 93500 pixels, is dominated by profiles comprising two, nearly anti-symmetric lobes, while 21% of the area is occupied by three-lobed profiles that are associated with the Evershed flow returning to the solar photosphere. The remaining 4% of the penumbral area is dominated by four groups/families of profiles - Group 1: three-lobed profiles in which both the rest and strong downflowing (sometimes supersonic) component have the same polarity as the host sunspot and seen exclusively in the filamentary light bridge. Group 2: single, red-lobed profiles occupying an area of about 2% located at the outer penumbra in discrete patches that possibly signify the downflowing leg of an Ω -loop. Group 3: three-lobed or highly asymmetric profiles, in which the rest component and the strong downflowing component have an opposite polarity as the sunspot. These occupy about 1.4% of the penumbra's area and are seen in conspicuous, elongated structures or isolated patches in the outer penumbra and at the penumbra-quiet Sun boundary. Group 4: three lobed-profiles, in which the rest component has the same polarity as the sunspot and a weaker, upflowing component with a polarity opposite that of the sunspot. These profiles are located close to the entrance of the filamentary light bridge and are found in only 0.12% of the penumbral area. These minority groups of profiles could be related to dynamic phenomena that could also affect the overlying chromosphere. The simplicity and speed of k-means can be utilized to identify such anomalous profiles in larger data sets to ascertain their temporal evolution and the physical processes responsible for these inhomogeneities. | 9 |
The Doppler shift of a radio signal is caused by the relative motion between the transmitter and receiver. The change in frequency of the signal over time is called the drift rate. In the studies of radio search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI), extraterrestrial narrowband signals are expected to appear "chirped" since both the exoplanet and Earth are moving. Such planet rotation and orbital revolution around the central star can cause a nonzero drift rate. Other relative motions between the transmitter and receiver, such as the gravitational redshift and galactic potential, are negligible. In this paper, we mainly consider the common cases in which the drift rate is contributed by the rotations and orbits of Earth and the exoplanet in the celestial mechanics perspective, and we briefly discuss other cases different from the Earth-exoplanet one. We can obtain the expected pseudosinusoidal drifting result with long-term observations and shorter orbital periods of exoplanets. Exoplanets with higher orbital eccentricities can cause asymmetric drifting. The expected result should be intermittent pseudosinusoidal curves in long-term observations. The characteristics of pseudosinusoidal curves, as another new criterion for extraterrestrial signals, can be applied to long-term SETI reobservations in future research. | 9 |

Applying halo models to analyze the small-scale clustering of galaxies is a proven method for characterizing the connection between galaxies and their host halos. Such works are often plagued by systematic errors or limited to clustering statistics that can be predicted analytically. In this work, we employ a numerical mock-based modeling procedure to examine the clustering of Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR7 galaxies. We apply a standard halo occupation distribution (HOD) model to dark matter only simulations with a ΛCDM cosmology. To constrain the theoreStical models, we utilize a combination of galaxy number density and selected scales of the projected correlation function, redshift-space correlation function, group multiplicity function, average group velocity dispersion, mark correlation function, and counts-in-cells statistics. We design an algorithm to choose an optimal combination of measurements that yields tight and accurate constraints on our model parameters. Compared to previous work using fewer clustering statistics, we find a significant improvement in the constraints on all parameters of our halo model for two different luminosity-threshold galaxy samples. Most interestingly, we obtain unprecedented high-precision constraints on the scatter in the relationship between galaxy luminosity and halo mass. However, our best-fit model results in significant tension (>4σ) for both samples, indicating the need to add second-order features to the standard HOD model. To guarantee the robustness of these results, we perform an extensive analysis of the systematic and statistical errors in our modeling procedure, including a first of its kind study of the sensitivity of our constraints to changes in the halo mass function due to baryonic physics. | 9 |

Classical T Tauri stars (TTS) are low-mass pre-main sequence stars with an active circumstellar environment. In this work, we present the identification and study of 260 classical TTS using LAMOST Data Release 6, among which 104 stars are newly identified. We distinguish classical TTS from giants and main-sequence dwarfs based on the logg values, and the presence of Hα emission line and infrared excess that arises from the circumstellar accretion disk. We estimated the mass and age of 210 stars using the Gaia color-magnitude diagram. The age is from 0.1 to 20 Myr, where 90% of the stars have age <10 Myr and the mass ranges between 0.11 and 1.9 M<SUB>⊙</SUB>. From the measured Hα equivalent widths, we homogeneously estimated the mass accretion rates for 172 stars, with most values ranging from 10<SUP>-7</SUP> to 10<SUP>-10</SUP>M<SUB>⊙</SUB> yr-<SUP>1</SUP>. The mass accretion rates are found to follow a power law distribution with the mass of the star, having a relation of the form M<SUB>˙acc</SUB>∝M<SUB>∗</SUB><SUP>1.43 ±0.26</SUP> , in agreement with previous studies. | 9 |

The processes taking place in the outermost reaches of spiral disks (the “protodisk”) are intimately connected to the build-up of mass and angular momentum in galaxies. The thinness of spiral disks suggests that the activity is mostly quiescent, and presumably this region is fed by cool flows coming into the halo from the intergalactic medium. While there is abundant evidence for the presence of a circumgalactic medium around disk galaxies as traced by quasar absorption lines, it has been very difficult to connect this material to the outer gas disk. This has been a very difficult transition region to explore because baryon tracers are hard to observe. In particular, H I disks have been argued to truncate at a critical column density ({N}<SUB>{{H</SUB>}}≳ {10}<SUP>19.5</SUP> cm<SUP>-2</SUP> at 30 kpc for an {L}<SUB>\star </SUB> galaxy) where the gas is vulnerable to the external ionizing background. But new, deep observations of nearby {L}<SUB>\star </SUB> spirals (e.g., Milky Way, NGC 2997) suggest that H I disks may extend much farther than recognized to date, up to 60 kpc at {N}<SUB>{{H</SUB>}}≈ {10}<SUP>18</SUP> cm<SUP>-2</SUP>. Motivated by these observations, here we show that a clumpy outer disk of dense clouds or cloudlets is potentially detectable to much larger radii and lower H I column densities than previously discussed. This extended protodisk component is likely to explain some of the Mg II forest seen in quasar spectra as judged from absorption-line column densities and kinematics. We fully anticipate that the armada of new radio facilities and planned H I surveys coming on line will detect this extreme outer disk (scree) material. We also propose a variant on the successful “Dragonfly” technique to go after the very weak Hα signals expected in the protodisk region. | 9 |
