Kavli Affiliate: Huajia Wang | First 5 Authors: Xi Dong, Huajia Wang, , , | Summary: Recent work found an enhanced correction to the entanglement entropy of a subsystem in a chaotic energy eigenstate. The enhanced correction appears near a phase transition in the entanglement entropy that happens when the subsystem size is half of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Martin Haehnelt | First 5 Authors: Eric J. Baxter, Lewis Weinberger, Martin Haehnelt, Vid Iršič, Girish Kulkarni | Summary: We explore a potential new probe of reionization: the cross-correlation of high-redshift galaxies with maps of the thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (tSZ) effect. We consider two types of high redshift galaxies: Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Seyed Morteza Hosseini, Kiril Hristov, Yuji Tachikawa, Alberto Zaffaroni, | Summary: We derive the general anomaly polynomial for a class of two-dimensional CFTs arising as twisted compactifications of a higher-dimensional theory on compact manifolds $mathcal{M}_d$, including the contribution of the isometries of $mathcal{M}_d$. We then use the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce A. Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Pauline Arriaga, Michael P. Fitzgerald, Gaspard Duchêne, Paul Kalas, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer | Summary: HR4796A hosts a well-studied debris disk with a long history due to its high fractional luminosity and favorable inclination lending itself well to both unresolved and resolved observations. We present new J- […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Kento Furukawa, Shunsaku Nagasawa, Lindsay Glesener, Miho Katsuragawa, Shin’ichiro Takeda | Summary: We have evaluated the performance of a fine pitch CdTe Double-sided Strip Detector (CdTe-DSD), which was originally developed for the focal plane detector of a hard X-ray telescope to observe the Sun. The detector has […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia | First 5 Authors: Angelo Esposito, Emma Geoffray, Tom Melia, , | Summary: We present a relativistic effective field theory for the interaction between acoustic and gapped phonons in the limit of a small gap. We show that, while the former are the Goldstone modes associated with the spontaneous breaking of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Biao Huang | First 5 Authors: Xunyuan Yin, Song Bo, Jinfeng Liu, Biao Huang, | Summary: The development of advanced closed-loop irrigation systems requires accurate soil moisture information. In this work, we address the problem of soil moisture estimation for the agro-hydrological systems in a robust and reliable manner. A nonlinear state-space model […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mikhail Kapranov | First 5 Authors: Mikhail Kapranov, Vadim Schechtman, , , | Summary: For a complex reductive Lie group G with Lie algebra g, Cartan subalgebra h and Weyl group W, we describe the category of perverse sheaves on h/W smooth w.r.t the natural stratification. The answer is given in terms of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Crommie | First 5 Authors: Kyunghoon Lee, M. Iqbal Bakti Utama, Salman Kahn, Appalakondaiah Samudrala, Nicolas Leconte | Summary: Two-dimensional heterostructures with layers of slightly different lattice vectors exhibit a new periodic structure known as moire lattices. Moire lattice formation provides a powerful new way to engineer the electronic structure of two-dimensional […]
