Conformal invariance and quantum non-locality in critical hybrid circuits

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Yaodong Li, Xiao Chen, Andreas W. W. Ludwig, Matthew P. A. Fisher, | Summary: We establish the emergence of a conformal field theory (CFT) in a (1+1)-dimensional hybrid quantum circuit right at the measurement-driven entanglement transition by revealing space-time conformal covariance of entanglement entropies and […]

Neural Network-based Top Tagger with Two-Point Energy Correlations and Geometry of Soft Emissions

Kavli Affiliate: Mihoko M. Nojiri | First 5 Authors: Amit Chakraborty, Sung Hak Lim, Mihoko M. Nojiri, Michihisa Takeuchi, | Summary: Deep neural networks trained on jet images have been successful in classifying different kinds of jets. In this paper, we identify the crucial physics features that could reproduce the classification performance of the convolutional […]

Anomaly inflow and $p$-form gauge theories

Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Chang-Tse Hsieh, Yuji Tachikawa, Kazuya Yonekura, , | Summary: Chiral and non-chiral $p$-form gauge fields have gravitational anomalies and anomalies of Green-Schwarz type. This means that they are most naturally realized as the boundary modes of bulk topological phases in one higher dimensions. We give a systematic […]

High Performance Heat Conductor with Small Spring Constant for Cryogenic Applications

Kavli Affiliate: Takaaki Kajita | First 5 Authors: Tomohiro Yamada, Takayuki Tomaru, Toshikazu Suzuki, Takafumi Ushiba, Nobuhiro Kimura | Summary: We developed a soft and high thermal conductive heat link for cryogenic applications. The measured maximum thermal conductivity was approximately 18500 W/m/K at 10 K. This spring constant was 1/43 of that of a single […]

TESS spots a hot Jupiter with an inner transiting Neptune

Kavli Affiliate: Robert F. Goeke | First 5 Authors: Chelsea X. Huang, Samuel N. Quinn, Andrew Vanderburg, Juliette Becker, Joseph E. Rodriguez | Summary: Hot Jupiters are rarely accompanied by other planets within a factor of a few in orbital distance. Previously, only two such systems have been found. Here, we report the discovery of […]

Defect dynamics in growing bacterial colonies

Kavli Affiliate: Sander J. Tans | First 5 Authors: Rachel Los, Duco van Holthe tot Echten, Gerhard Nordemann, Martijn Wehrens, Sander J. Tans | Summary: Colonies of rod-shaped bacteria constitute a system of colloidal active matter with nematic properties. As a single initial bacterium multiplies through repeated divisions, the resulting colony quickly loses long-range orientational […]

Dark Energy Survey Identification of A Low-Mass Active Galactic Nucleus at Redshift 0.823 from Optical Variability

Kavli Affiliate: Aaron Roodman | First 5 Authors: Hengxiao Guo, Colin J. Burke, Xin Liu, Kedar A. Phadke, Kaiwen Zhang | Summary: We report the identification of a low-mass AGN, DES J0218$-$0430, in a redshift $z = 0.823$ galaxy in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Supernova field. We select DES J0218$-$0430 as an AGN candidate […]

The TESS-Keck Survey I: A Warm Sub-Saturn-mass Planet and a Caution about Stray Light in TESS Cameras

Kavli Affiliate: Robert F. Goeke | First 5 Authors: Paul A. Dalba, Arvind F. Gupta, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Diana Dragomir, Chelsea X. Huang | Summary: We report the detection of a Saturn-size exoplanet orbiting HD 332231 (TOI 1456) in light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). HD 332231, an F8 dwarf star with […]
