Abstract β p= 0.25) collisionless ion–electron shocks with mass ratiom i/m e= 200, fast Mach number –4, and upstream magnetic field angleθ Bn= 55°–85° from the shock normal . It is known that shock electron heating is described by an ambipolar, -parallel electric potential jump, ΔB ϕ ∥, that scales roughly linearly with the electron temperature jump. Our simulations have –0.2 in units of the pre-shock ions’ bulk kinetic energy, in agreement with prior measurements and simulations. Different ways to measureϕ ∥, including the use of de Hoffmann–Teller frame fields, agree to tens-of-percent accuracy. Neglecting off-diagonal electron pressure tensor terms can lead to a systematic underestimate ofϕ ∥in our low-β pshocks. We further focus on twoθ Bn= 65° shocks: a ( ) case with a long, 30d iprecursor of whistler waves along , and a ( ) case with a shorter, 5d iprecursor of whistlers oblique to both and ;B d iis the ion skin depth. Within the precursors,ϕ ∥has a secular rise toward the shock along multiple whistler wavelengths and also has localized spikes within magnetic troughs. In a 1D simulation of the ,θ Bn= 65° case,ϕ ∥shows a weak dependence on the electron plasma-to-cyclotron frequency ratioω pe/Ωce, andϕ ∥decreases by a factor of 2 asm i/m eis raised to the true proton–electron value of 1836. -
Abstract We present13CO(
J = 1 → 0) observations for the EDGE-CALIFA survey, which is a mapping survey of 126 nearby galaxies at a typical spatial resolution of 1.5 kpc. Using detected12CO emission as a prior, we detect13CO in 41 galaxies via integrated line flux over the entire galaxy and in 30 galaxies via integrated line intensity in resolved synthesized beams. Incorporating our CO observations and optical IFU spectroscopy, we perform a systematic comparison between the line ratio and the properties of the stars and ionized gas. Higher values are found in interacting galaxies compared to those in noninteracting galaxies. The global slightly increases with infrared colorF 60/F 100but appears insensitive to other host-galaxy properties such as morphology, stellar mass, or galaxy size. We also present azimuthally averaged profiles for our sample up to a galactocentric radius of 0.4r 25(∼6 kpc), taking into account the13CO nondetections by spectral stacking. The radial profiles of are quite flat across our sample. Within galactocentric distances of 0.2r 25, the azimuthally averaged increases with the star formation rate. However, Spearman rank correlation tests show the azimuthally averaged does not strongly correlate with any other gas or stellar properties in general, especially beyond 0.2r 25from the galaxy centers. Our findings suggest that in the complex environments in galaxy disks, is not a sensitive tracer for ISM properties. Dynamical disturbances, like galaxy interactions or the presence of a bar, also have an overall impact on , which further complicates the interpretations of variations. -
Abstract The genericity of Arnold diffusion in the analytic category is an open problem. In this paper, we study this problem in the following
a priori unstable Hamiltonian system with a time-periodic perturbation where , withn ,d ⩾ 1,V i are Morse potentials, andɛ is a small non-zero parameter. The unperturbed Hamiltonian is not necessarily convex, and the induced inner dynamics does not need to satisfy a twist condition. Using geometric methods we prove that Arnold diffusion occurs for generic analytic perturbationsH 1. Indeed, the set of admissibleH 1isC ω dense andC 3open (a fortiori ,C ω open). Our perturbative technique for the genericity is valid in theC k topology for allk ∈ [3, ∞) ∪ {∞,ω }. -
Abstract We present a detection of 21 cm emission from large-scale structure (LSS) between redshift 0.78 and 1.43 made with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment. Radio observations acquired over 102 nights are used to construct maps that are foreground filtered and stacked on the angular and spectral locations of luminous red galaxies (LRGs), emission-line galaxies (ELGs), and quasars (QSOs) from the eBOSS clustering catalogs. We find decisive evidence for a detection when stacking on all three tracers of LSS, with the logarithm of the Bayes factor equal to 18.9 (LRG), 10.8 (ELG), and 56.3 (QSO). An alternative frequentist interpretation, based on the likelihood ratio test, yields a detection significance of 7.1
σ (LRG), 5.7σ (ELG), and 11.1σ (QSO). These are the first 21 cm intensity mapping measurements made with an interferometer. We constrain the effective clustering amplitude of neutral hydrogen (Hi ), defined as , where ΩHi is the cosmic abundance of Hi ,b Hi is the linear bias of Hi , and 〈f μ 2〉 = 0.552 encodes the effect of redshift-space distortions at linear order. We find for LRGs (z = 0.84), for ELGs (z = 0.96), and for QSOs (z = 1.20), with constraints limited by modeling uncertainties at nonlinear scales. We are also sensitive to bias in the spectroscopic redshifts of each tracer, and we find a nonzero bias Δv = − 66 ± 20 km s−1for the QSOs. We split the QSO catalog into three redshift bins and have a decisive detection in each, with the upper bin atz = 1.30 producing the highest-redshift 21 cm intensity mapping measurement thus far. -
Abstract The Makani galaxy hosts the poster child of a galactic wind on scales of the circumgalactic medium. It consists of a two-episode wind in which the slow, outer wind originated 400 Myr ago (Episode I;
R I= 20 − 50 kpc) and the fast, inner wind is 7 Myr old (Episode II;R II= 0 − 20 kpc). While this wind contains ionized, neutral, and molecular gas, the physical state and mass of the most extended phase—the warm, ionized gas—are unknown. Here we present Keck optical spectra of the Makani outflow. These allow us to detect hydrogen lines out tor = 30–40 kpc and thus constrain the mass, momentum, and energy in the wind. Many collisionally excited lines are detected throughout the wind, and their line ratios are consistent with 200–400 km s−1shocks that power the ionized gas, withv shock=σ wind. Combining shock models, density-sensitive line ratios, and mass and velocity measurements, we estimate that the ionized mass and outflow rate in the Episode II wind could be as high as those of the molecular gas: and yr−1. The outer wind has slowed, so that yr−1, but it contains more ionized gas,M ⊙. The momentum and energy in the recent Episode II wind imply a momentum-driven flow (p “boost” ∼7) driven by the hot ejecta and radiation pressure from the Eddington-limited, compact starburst. Much of the energy and momentum in the older Episode I wind may reside in a hotter phase, or lie further into the circumgalactic medium.
