Constraints on a Second Planet in the WASP-3 System
There have been previous hints that the transiting planet WASP-3b is accompanied by a second planet in a nearby orbit, based on small deviations from strict...
Constraints on an Optical Afterglow and on Supernova Light Following the Short Burst GRB 050813
We report early follow-up observations of the error box of the short burst GRB 050813 using the telescopes at Calar Alto and Observatorio Sierra Nevada...
Constraints on anomalous Higgs boson couplings using production and decay information in the four-lepton final state
A search is performed for anomalous interactions of the recently discovered Higgs boson using matrix element techniques with the information from its decay to...
Constraints on axion-like particles with the Perseus Galaxy Cluster with MAGIC
Axion-like particles (ALPs) are pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons that emerge in various theories beyond the standard model. These particles can interact with high...
Constraints on Circumstellar Material around the Type Ia Supernova 2007af
Patat et al. recently inferred the existence of circumstellar material around a normal Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) for the first time, finding time-variable Na I...
Constraints on compact objects from the Dark Energy Survey 5-yr supernova sample
Gravitational lensing magnification of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) allows information to be obtained about the distribution of matter on small scales. In this...
Constraints on cosmological parameters from recent measurements of cosmic microwave background anisotropy
We present new results from a study of recent cosmic microwave background (CMB) observations which provide the first strong evidence for the existence of a...
Constraints on dark matter to dark radiation conversion in the late universe with DES-Y1 and external data
We study a phenomenological class of models where dark matter converts to dark radiation in the low redshift epoch. This class of models, dubbed DMDR...
Constraints on f(R) gravity from thermal-Sunyaev-Zel'dovich-effect-selected SPT galaxy clusters and weak lensing mass calibration from DES and HST
We present constraints on the f(R) gravity model using a sample of 1005 galaxy clusters in the redshift range 0.25–1.78 that have been selected through the...
