Kavli Affiliate: Sol M. Gruner | First 5 Authors: Hugh T. Philipp, Mark W. Tate, Katherine S. Shanks, Prafull Purohit, Sol M. Gruner | Summary: A hard x-ray, high-speed, high dynamic range scientific x-ray imager is described. The imager is based on the mixed-mode pixel array detector (MM-PAD) readout chip coupled to a 750 micron […]

Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Szilard Szoke, Hanzhe Liu, Bryce P. Hickam, Manni He, Scott K. Cushing | Summary: Entangled photons exhibit non-classical light-matter interactions that create new opportunities in materials and molecular science. For example, in entangled two-photon absorption, the intensity-dependence scales linearly as if only one photon was present. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Wiesner | First 5 Authors: Cédric Kilchoer, Narjes Abdollahi, James A. Dolan, Doha Abdelrahman, Matthias Saba | Summary: Over the past two decades, metamaterials have led to an increasing number of biosensing and nanophotonic applications due to the possibility of a careful control of light propagating through subwavelength features. Chiral nanostructures (characterized […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alexey Bondal | First 5 Authors: Agnieszka Bodzenta, Alexey Bondal, , , | Summary: We define the functor $textrm{ncDef}_{(Z_1,ldots,Z_n)}$ of non-commutative deformations of an $n$-tuple of objects in an arbitrary $k$-linear abelian category $mathcal{Z}$. In our categorified approach, we view the underlying spaces of infinitesimal flat deformations as Deligne finite categories, i.e. finite […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Challinor | First 5 Authors: Anirban Roy, Girish Kulkarni, P. Daniel Meerburg, Anthony Challinor, Carlo Baccigalupi | Summary: The search for primordial gravitational waves through the $B$-mode polarization pattern in the CMB is one of the major goals of current and future CMB experiments. Besides foregrounds, a potential hurdle in this search […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Yulia Oganian, Katsuaki Kojima, Assaf Breska, Chang Cai, Anne Findlay, Edward F Chang and Srikantan Nagarajan | Summary: Abstract The amplitude envelope of speech is crucial for accurate comprehension. Considered a key stage in speech processing, the phase of neural activity in the theta-delta bands (1 – 10 Hz) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Philip J. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Alessandro Sonnenfeld, Aprajita Verma, Anupreeta More, Elisabeth Baeten, Christine Macmillan | Summary: Strong lenses are extremely useful probes of the distribution of matter on galaxy and cluster scales at cosmological distances, but are rare and difficult to find. The number of currently known lenses is on […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Mohamed Naveed Gul Mohamed, Suman Chakravorty, Raman Goyal, Ran Wang, | Summary: We consider the problem of nonlinear stochastic optimal control. This problem is thought to be fundamentally intractable owing to Bellman’s "curse of dimensionality". We present a result that shows that repeatedly solving an open-loop deterministic […]
