Energy Loss Due to Defect Formation from $^206$Pb Recoils in SuperCDMS Germanium Detectors

Kavli Affiliate: Blas Cabrera | Summary:The Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search experiment (SuperCDMS) at the Soudan Underground Laboratory studied energy loss associated with Frenkel defect formation in germanium crystals at mK temperatures using in situ $^210$Pb sources. We examine the spectrum of $^206$Pb nuclear recoils near its expected 103 keV endpoint energy and determine an […]

Optomechanical damping as the origin of sideband asymmetry

Kavli Affiliate: Ya Blanter | Summary:Sideband asymmetry in cavity optomechanics has been explained by particle creation and annihilation processes, which bestow an amplitude proportional to ‘n+1’ and ‘n’ excitations to each of the respective sidebands. We discuss the issues with this as well as other interpretations, such as quantum backaction and noise interference, and show […]

Very large scale characterization of graphene mechanical devices using a colorimetry technique

Kavli Affiliate: Herre Sjoerd Jan Van Der Zant| First 5 Authors: Santiago Jose Cartamil-Bueno, Santiago Jose Cartamil-Bueno, , , | Summary:We use a scalable optical technique to characterize more than 21000 circular nanomechanical devices made out of suspended single- and double-layer graphene on cavities with different diameters ($D$) and depths ($g$). To maximize the contrast […]

Pulling the Boundary into the Bulk

Kavli Affiliate: Yasunori Nomura | Summary:Motivated by the ability to consistently apply the Ryu-Takayanagi prescription for general convex surfaces and the relationship between entanglement and geometry in tensor networks, we introduce a novel, covariant bulk object – the holographic slice. The holographic slice is found by considering the continual removal of short range information in […]

Around the nearby cycle functor for arithmetic $mathscrD$-modules

Kavli Affiliate: Tomoyuki Abe | Summary:We will establish a nearby and vanishing cycle formalism for the arithmetic $mathscrD$-module theory following Beilinson’s philosophy. As an application, we define smooth objects in the framework of arithmetic $mathscrD$-modules whose category is equivalent to the category of overconvergent isocrystals. | Search Query: arXiv Query: search_query=au:”Abe Tomoyuki”&id_list=&start=0&max_results=10Read More
