The FRET-based structural dynamics challenge — community contributions to consistent and open science practices

Posted by klaurent Oxford

Kavli Affiliate: Achillefs Kapanidis | Summary:Single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) has become a mainstream technique for probing biomolecular structural dynamics. The rapid and wide adoption of the technique by an ever-increasing number of groups has generated many improvements and variations in the technique itself, in methods for sample preparation and characterization, in analysis of […]

Evidence for magnetic activity at starbirth: a powerful X-ray flare from the Class 0 protostar HOPS 383

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: David Principe | First 5 Authors: Nicolas Grosso, Kenji Hamaguchi, David Principe, Joel Kastner, | Summary: Context. Class 0 protostars represent the earliest evolutionary stage of solar-type stars, during which the majority of the system mass resides in an infalling envelope of gas and dust and is not yet in the central, nascent […]

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) radioactivity and cleanliness control programs

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: T. A. Shutt | Summary:LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a second-generation direct dark matter experiment with spin-independent WIMP-nucleon scattering sensitivity above $1.4 times 10^-48$ cm$^2$ for a WIMP mass of 40 GeV/c$^2$ and a 1000 d exposure. LZ achieves this sensitivity through a combination of a large 5.6 t fiducial volume, active inner and outer […]

High-throughput search for magnetic and topological order in transition metal oxides

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Nathan C. Frey, Matthew K. Horton, Jason M. Munro, Sinéad M. Griffin, Kristin A. Persson | Summary: The discovery of intrinsic magnetic topological order in $rm MnBi_2Te_4$ has invigorated the search for materials with coexisting magnetic and topological phases. These multi-order quantum materials are expected to […]
