Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey McMahon | First 5 Authors: Zack Li, Sigurd Naess, Simone Aiola, David Alonso, John W. Appel | Summary: One of the most important checks for systematic errors in CMB studies is the cross correlation of maps made by independent experiments. In this paper we report on the cross correlation between maps from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Angela Olinto | First 5 Authors: Martin Elvis, Jon Arenberg, David Ballantyne, Mark Bautz, Charles Beichman | Summary: Astrophysics spans an enormous range of questions on scales from individual planets to the entire cosmos. To address the richness of 21st century astrophysics requires a corresponding richness of telescopes spanning all bands and all […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Emanuele Castorina, Simon Foreman, Dionysios Karagiannis, Adrian Liu, Kiyoshi W. Masui | Summary: The Packed Ultra-wideband Mapping Array (PUMA) is a proposed low-resolution transit interferometric radio telescope operating over the frequency range 200 – 1100MHz. Its rich science portfolio will include measuring structure in the universe […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Shun-ichi Horigome, Kohei Hayashi, Masahiro Ibe, Miho N. Ishigaki, Shigeki Matsumoto | Summary: Dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are promising targets of indirect detection experiments searching for dark matter (DM) at present universe. Toward robust prediction for the amount of signal flux originating in DM annihilation inside dSphs, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alessandra Lanzara | First 5 Authors: Josue Rodriguez, Gilbert Lopez, Samantha Crouch, Nicholas P. Breznay, Robert Kealhofer | Summary: Spin orbit assisted Mott insulators such as sodium iridate (Na$_2$IrO$_3$) have been an important subject of study in the recent years. In these materials, the interplay of electronic correlations, spin-orbit coupling, crystal field effects […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ronald A. Remillard | First 5 Authors: Dacheng Lin, Jay Strader, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Jimmy A. Irwin, Olivier Godet | Summary: We recently discovered the X-ray/optical outbursting source 3XMM J215022.4-055108. It was best explained as the tidal disruption of a star by an intermediate-mass black hole of mass of a few tens of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Clarence Chang | First 5 Authors: Changjiang Liu, Vincent F. C. Humbert, Terence Bretz-Sullivan, Gensheng Wang, Deshun Hong | Summary: Amongst the rare-earth perovskite nickelates, LaNiO$_3$ (LNO) is an exception. While the former have insulating and antiferromagnetic ground states, LNO remains metallic and non-magnetic down to the lowest temperatures. It is believed that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cees Dekker | First 5 Authors: Sabina Caneva, Matthijs D. Hermans, Martin Lee, Amador Garcia-Fuente, Kenji Watanabe | Summary: Graphene quantum dots (QDs) are intensively studied as platforms for the next generation of quantum electronic devices. Fine tuning of the transport properties in monolayer graphene QDs, in particular with respect to the independent […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kyle Shen | First 5 Authors: Joshua T. Paul, Alice Galdi, Christopher Parzyck, Kyle Shen, Richard G. Hennig | Summary: The discovery of novel substrate materials has been dominated by trial and error, opening the opportunity for a systematic search. To identify stable crystal surfaces, we generate bonding networks for materials from the […]
Kavli Affiliate: J. S. Villasenor | First 5 Authors: Fernando Barbero G., Juan Margalef-Bentabol, Eduardo J. S. Villaseñor, , | Summary: We give a new identity involving Bernoulli polynomials and combinatorial numbers. This provides, in particular, a Faulhaber-like formula for sums of the form $1^m (n-1)^m + 2^m (n-2)^m + cdots + (n-1)^m 1^m$ for […]
