Kavli Affiliate: Mathew Evans | First 5 Authors: Jack Whitter-Jones, Mathew Evans, , , | Summary: Security testing has been a career path that many are beginning to take. In doing so, security testing can hit the realms of many different types of engagements, ranging from web, infrastructure and social engineering. With the risk of […]
Kavli Affiliate: John D. Richardson | First 5 Authors: Federico Fraternale, Nikolai V Pogorelov, John D Richardson, Daniela Tordella, | Summary: The understanding of inertial-scale dynamics in the heliosheath is not yet thorough. Magnetic field fluctuations across the inner heliosheath (IHS) and the local interstellar medium (LISM) are here considered to provide accurate and highly […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xuebing Wu | First 5 Authors: Xiaolong Yang, Ravi Joshi, Gopal-Krishna, Tao An, Luis C. Ho | Summary: We present a catalog of 290 "winged" or X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs) extracted from the latest (2014 December 17) data release of the "Very Large Array Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty centimeter." […]
Kavli Affiliate: Julia R. Greer | First 5 Authors: Yejing Liu, Hao Wang, Jinfa Ho, Ryan C. Ng, Ray J. H. Ng | Summary: The rings, spots and stripes found on some butterflies, Pachyrhynchus weevils, and many chameleons are notable examples of natural organisms employing photonic crystals to produce colorful patterns. Despite advances in nanotechnology, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Fukun Liu | First 5 Authors: Weiye Xu, Handong Xu, Fukun Liu, Xiaojie Wang, | Summary: The real-time power monitoring of gyrotron is one of the key issues in the operation of electron cyclotron resonance heating system. The detector can be used for real-time power monitoring. We analyzed the principle of diode detection […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ali Javey | First 5 Authors: Der-Hsien Lien, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Matthew Yeh, Matin Amani, Hyungjin Kim | Summary: Defects in conventional semiconductors substantially lower the photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY), a key metric of optoelectronic performance that directly dictates the maximum device efficiency. Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), such as monolayer […]

Kavli Affiliate: Dustin M. Schroeder | First 5 Authors: Ian M. Shoemaker, Alexander Kusenko, Peter Kuipers Munneke, Andrew Romero-Wolf, Dustin M. Schroeder | Summary: The ANITA balloon experiment was designed to detect radio signals initiated by neutrinos and cosmic ray air showers. These signals are typically discriminated by the polarization and phase inversions of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claude Canizares | First 5 Authors: Lia Corrales, Lynne Valencic, Elisa Costantini, Javier Garcia, Efrain Gatuzz | Summary: X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) in the 0.2-2 keV band is a crucial component in multi-wavelength studies of dust mineralogy, size, and shape — parameters that are necessary for interpreting astronomical observations and building physical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rafe Schindler | First 5 Authors: Qian Yang, Yue Shen, Yu-Ching Chen, Xin Liu, James Annis | Summary: We present new Gemini/GMOS optical spectroscopy of 16 extreme variability quasars (EVQs) that dimmed by more than 1.5 mag in the $g$ band between the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the Dark Energy Survey […]
