We present a detailed analysis of the velocity structure of the Virgo cluster using XMM-Newton observations. Using a novel technique which uses the Cu K α instrumental line to calibrate the EPIC-pn energy scale, we are able to obtain velocity measurements with uncertainties down to Δv ~ 100 km s<SUP>-1</SUP>. We created 2D projected maps for the velocity, temperature, metallicity, density, pressure, and entropy with an spatial resolution of 0.25 arcmin. We have found that in the innermost gas there is a high velocity structure, most likely indicating the presence of an outflow from the AGN while our analysis of the cluster cool core using RGS data indicates that the velocity of the gas agrees with the M87 optical redshift. An overall gradient in the velocity is seen, with larger values as we move away from the cluster core. The hot gas located within the western radio flow is redshifted, moving with a velocity ~331 km s<SUP>-1</SUP> while the hot gas located within the eastern radio flow is blueshifted, with a velocity ~258 km s<SUP>-1</SUP>, suggesting the presence of backflows. Our results reveal the effects of both AGN outflows and gas sloshing, in the complex velocity field of the Virgo cluster. | 9 |

The Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory has provided unique observations of off-limb flare emission. White-light continuum enhancements were detected in the “continuum” channel of the Fe 6173 Å line during the impulsive phase of the observed flares. In this paper we aim to determine which radiation mechanism is responsible for such enhancement being seen above the limb, at chromospheric heights around or below 1000 km. Using a simple analytical approach, we compare two candidate mechanisms, the hydrogen recombination continuum (Paschen) and the Thomson continuum due to scattering of disk radiation on flare electrons. Both mechanisms depend on the electron density, which is typically enhanced during the impulsive phase of a flare as the result of collisional ionization (both thermal and also non-thermal due to electron beams). We conclude that for electron densities higher than 10<SUP>12</SUP> cm<SUP>-3</SUP>, the Paschen recombination continuum significantly dominates the Thomson scattering continuum and there is some contribution from the hydrogen free-free emission. This is further supported by detailed radiation-hydrodynamical (RHD) simulations of the flare chromosphere heated by the electron beams. We use the RHD code FLARIX to compute the temporal evolution of the flare-heating in a semi-circular loop. The synthesized continuum structure above the limb resembles the off-limb flare structures detected by HMI, namely their height above the limb, as well as the radiation intensity. These results are consistent with recent findings related to hydrogen Balmer continuum enhancements, which were clearly detected in disk flares by the IRIS near-ultraviolet spectrometer. | 9 |

We report 885 μm ALMA continuum flux densities for 24 Taurus members spanning the stellar/substellar boundary with spectral types from M4 to M7.75. Of the 24 systems, 22 are detected at levels ranging from 1.0 to 55.7 mJy. The two nondetections are transition disks, though other transition disks in the sample are detected. Converting ALMA continuum measurements to masses using standard scaling laws and radiative transfer modeling yields dust mass estimates ranging from ∼0.3 to 20 M <SUB>⊕</SUB>. The dust mass shows a declining trend with central object mass when combined with results from submillimeter surveys of more massive Taurus members. The substellar disks appear as part of a continuous sequence and not a distinct population. Compared to older Upper Sco members with similar masses across the substellar limit, the Taurus disks are brighter and more massive. Both Taurus and Upper Sco populations are consistent with an approximately linear relationship in M <SUB>dust</SUB> to M <SUB>star</SUB>, although derived power-law slopes depend strongly upon choices of stellar evolutionary model and dust temperature relation. The median disk around early-M stars in Taurus contains a comparable amount of mass in small solids as the average amount of heavy elements in Kepler planetary systems on short-period orbits around M-dwarf stars, with an order of magnitude spread in disk dust mass about the median value. Assuming a gas-to-dust ratio of 100:1, only a small number of low-mass stars and brown dwarfs have a total disk mass amenable to giant planet formation, consistent with the low frequency of giant planets orbiting M dwarfs. | 9 |

We study the imprint of new particles on the primordial cosmological fluctuations. New particles with masses comparable to the Hubble scale produce a distinctive signature on the non-gaussianities. This feature arises in the squeezed limit of the correlation functions of primordial fluctuations. It consists of particular power law, or oscillatory, behavior that contains information about the masses of new particles. There is an angular dependence that gives information about the spin. We also have a relative phase that crucially depends on the quantum mechanical nature of the fluctuations and can be viewed as arising from the interference between two processes. While some of these features were noted before in the context of specific inflationary scenarios, here we give a general description emphasizing the role of symmetries in determining the final result. | 9 |

Numerical studies of gas accretion onto supermassive black hole binaries have generally been limited to conditions where the circumbinary disk (CBD) is 10-100 times thicker than expected for disks in active galactic nuclei. This discrepancy arises from technical limitations, and also from publication bias toward replicating fiducial numerical models. Here we present the first systematic study of how the binary's orbital evolution varies with disk scale height. We report three key results: (1) binary orbital evolution switches from outspiraling for warm disks (aspect ratio h/r ∼ 0.1), to inspiraling for more realistic cooler, thinner disks at a critical value of h/r ∼ 0.04, corresponding to orbital Mach number ${{ \mathcal M }}_{\mathrm{crit}}\approx 25$ . (2) The net torque on the binary arises from a competition between positive torque from gas orbiting close to the black holes, and negative torque from the inner edge of the CBD, which is denser for thinner disks. This leads to increasingly negative net torques on the binary for increasingly thin disks. (3) The accretion rate is modestly suppressed with increasing Mach number. We discuss how our results may influence modeling of the nano-Hz gravitational-wave background, as well as estimates of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna merger event rate. | 9 |

We present the results from the 1.2 mm continuum image obtained as part of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Spectroscopic Survey in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. The 1.2 mm continuum image has a size of 2.9 (4.2) arcmin<SUP>2</SUP> within a primary beam response of 50% (10%) and an rms value of $9.3\,\mu \mathrm{Jy}\,{\mathrm{beam}}^{-1}$ . We detect 35 sources at high significance (Fidelity ≥0.5); 32 have well-characterized near-infrared Hubble Space Telescope counterparts. We estimate the 1.2 mm number counts to flux levels of $\lt 30\,\mu \mathrm{Jy}$ in two different ways: we first use the detected sources to constrain the number counts and find a significant flattening of the counts below S<SUB>ν</SUB> ∼ 0.1 mJy. In a second approach, we constrain the number counts using a probability of deflection statistics (P(D)) analysis. For this latter approach, we describe new methods to accurately measure the noise in interferometric imaging (employing jackknifing in the cube and in the visibility plane). This independent measurement confirms the flattening of the number counts. Our analysis of the differential number counts shows that we are detecting ∼93% (∼100% if we include the lower fidelity detections) of the total continuum dust emission associated with galaxies in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. The ancillary data allow us to study the dependence of the 1.2 mm number counts on redshift (z = 0-4), galaxy dust mass ( ${M}_{\mathrm{dust}}={10}^{7}\mbox{--}{10}^{9}{M}_{\odot }$ ), stellar mass ( ${M}_{* }={10}^{9}\mbox{--}{10}^{12}{M}_{\odot }$ ), and star formation rate ( $\mathrm{SFR}=1-1000\,{M}_{\odot }\,{\mathrm{yr}}^{-1}$ ). In an accompanying paper we show that the number counts are crucial to constrain galaxy evolution models and the understanding of star-forming galaxies at high redshift. | 9 |

New observables: Higgs production and decay, beta decays, e<sup>+</sup>e<sup>-</sup> scattering, kaon and pion decays This release adds a large number of new observables that have been recently implemented in flavio 2.0 (based on arXiv:1911.07866 by Adam Falkowski and David Straub and a collaboration of Martín Gonzalez-Alonso, Adam Falkowski, and David Straub): 32 new observables in the likelihood fast_likelihood_quarks.yaml: kaon decays, pion decays, nuclear and neutron beta decays, 48 observables in the new likelihood likelihood_eeww.yaml: total and differential cross sections of e<sup>+</sup>e<sup>-</sup>→W<sup>+</sup>W<sup>-</sup>, 33 observables in the new likelihood likelihood_higgs.yaml: Higgs signal strengths. This raises the total number of observables taken into account in the global likelihood to 399. New feature The CKM scheme used by a GlobalLikelihood instance can now be selected on instantiation using the optional argument ckm_scheme. This will facilitate the use of different CKM schemes in the future (currently, only one default CKM scheme is defined). Bugs fixed Removed the branching ratio of Λ<sub>b</sub>→Λμμ in the [1.1, 6] GeV<sup>2</sup> bin. If a GlobalLikelihood instance is created with the argument fix_ckm=True, now the default CKM elements from flavio are used instead of those defined by the default CKM scheme. Other updates The required flavio version is now v2.0. The flavio version is not pinned anymore to allow updating flavio from pip before updating smelli. | 9 |

We study an impact of self-interacting bosonic dark matter (DM) on various observable properties of neutron stars (NSs). The analysis is performed for asymmetric DM with masses from few MeV to GeV, the self-coupling constant of order O (1 ) and various DM fractions. Allowing a mixture between DM and baryonic matter, the formation of a dense DM core or an extended dark halo has been explored. We find that both distribution regimes crucially depend on the mass and fraction of DM for sub-GeV boson masses in the strong coupling regime. From the combined analysis of the mass-radius relation and the tidal deformability of compact stars including bosonic DM, we set a stringent constraint on DM fraction. We conclude that observations of 2 M<SUB>⊙</SUB> NSs together with Λ<SUB>1.4</SUB>≤580 constraint, set by LIGO/Virgo Collaboration, favor sub-GeV DM particles with low fractions below ∼5 %. | 9 |

As a prominent geophysical anomaly, unusually high seismic wave attenuation is observed in the crust and upper mantle of the Tibetan Plateau, particularly along its northern area. Theoretical and laboratory investigations show that the strong seismic attenuation can indicate high temperatures and partial melting, which may decrease the viscosity of the material and cause it to flow. Thus, seismic attenuation distribution may provide useful constraints to the crust flows if they exist. Using Lg-wave Q tomography, we construct a 0.05-10.0 Hz broadband high-resolution crust attenuation model for the Tibetan Plateau and its surrounding regions. The maximum spatial resolution is approximately 1.0°×1.0° in well-covered areas and for frequencies between 0.05 and 1.5 Hz. This attenuation model reveals an apparent low-Q<SUB>Lg</SUB> belt stretching along the northern and eastern Tibetan plateau. Combining the Lg-wave Q model with other geophysical data, two possible crust flow channels are found in the Tibetan Plateau. The main flow channel is from north to east and then turns to southeastern Tibet along the western edge of the rigid Sichuan basin, while a second channel starts from southern Tibet and crosses the Eastern Himalayan syntaxis. | 9 |

Modern landmine detection capability struggles to discriminate between dangerous targets and harmless clutter, which increases the risk and time required for mine-clearing operations. To reduce risk to the warfighter, Vadum is developing the Vibration-ENhanced Underground Sensing (VENUS) system for improved landmine identification capability. The novel sensor uses an electromagnetic stimulus to induce mechanical vibrations in buried targets that are detectable using a sensitive RF vibrometer. Landmines produce unique phenomenological responses to the stimulus as a result of specific structural features that distinguish targets from other metal clutter. This physics-based approach enables discrimination even for low-metal-content (LMC) antipersonnel mines. In this paper, a high-level system architecture and test results from the VENUS hardware prototype are presented. A high dynamic range RF vibrometer design enables extraction of small vibration-modulated signals less than 200 Hz from the RF carrier. Distinct vibrational responses collected by the hardware prototype are shown for several buried inert antipersonnel landmines to demonstrate feasibility at up to two inches of burial depth. System capability tradeoffs are discussed and compared to the state-of-the-art including sensitivity, detection depth, discrimination capability, and achievable size, weight, and power (SWAP). | 9 |
We present new 5 GHz Very Large Array observations of a sample of eight active intermediate-mass black holes with masses 10<SUP>4.9</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB> < M < 10<SUP>6.1</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB> found in galaxies with stellar masses M<SUB>*</SUB> < 3 × 10<SUP>9</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB>. We detected five of the eight sources at high significance. Of the detections, four were consistent with a point source, and one (SDSS J095418.15+471725.1, with black hole mass M < 10<SUP>5</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB>) clearly shows extended emission that has a jet morphology. Combining our new radio data with the black hole masses and literature X-ray measurements, we put the sources on the Fundamental Plane of black hole accretion. We find that the extent to which the sources agree with the Fundamental Plane depends on their star-forming/composite/active galactic nucleus (AGN) classification based on optical narrow emission-line ratios. The single star-forming source is inconsistent with the Fundamental Plane. The three composite sources are consistent, and three of the four AGN sources are inconsistent with the Fundamental Plane. We argue that this inconsistency is genuine and not a result of misattributing star formation to black hole activity. Instead, we identify the sources in our sample that have AGN-like optical emission-line ratios as not following the Fundamental Plane and thus caution the use of the Fundamental Plane to estimate masses without additional constraints, such as radio spectral index, radiative efficiency, or the Eddington fraction. | 9 |

Context. A leading paradigm in planet formation is currently the streaming instability and pebble accretion scenario. Notably, dust must grow into sizes in a specific regime of Stokes numbers in order to make the processes in the scenario viable and sufficiently effective. The dust growth models currently in use do not implement some of the growth barriers suggested to be relevant in the literature. <BR /> Aims: We investigate if the bouncing barrier, when effective, has an impact on the timescales and efficiencies of processes such as the streaming instability and pebble accretion as well as on the observational appearance of planet-forming disks. <BR /> Methods: We implemented a formalism for the bouncing barrier into the publicly available dust growth model DustPy and ran a series of models to understand the impact. <BR /> Results: We found that the bouncing barrier has a significant effect on the dust evolution in planet-forming disks. In many cases, it reduces the size of the typical or largest particles available in the disk; it produces a very narrow, almost monodisperse, size distribution; and it removes most μm-sized grains in the process, with an impact on scattered light images. It modifies the settling and therefore the effectiveness of and timescales for the streaming instability and for pebble accretion. An active bouncing barrier may well have observational consequences: It may reduce the strength of the signatures of small particles (e.g., the 10 μm silicate feature), and it may create additional shadowed regions visible in scattered light images. <BR /> Conclusions: Modeling of planet formation that leans heavily on the streaming instability and on pebble accretion should take the bouncing barrier into account. The complete removal of small grains in our model is not consistent with observations. However, this could be resolved by incomplete vertical mixing or some level of erosion in collisions. | 9 |
