Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Camera focal plane, consisting of 205 charge-coupled devices (CCDs) arranged into 21 stand-alone Raft Tower Modules (RTMs) and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ariel Amir | First 5 Authors: Paul Dieterle, Ariel Amir, , , | Summary: Scientists have observed and studied diffusive waves in contexts as disparate as population genetics and cell signaling. Often, these waves are propagated by discrete entities or agents, such as individual cells in the case of cell signaling. For a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Yu Mei, Jia Liu, Zhiping Chen, , | Summary: We consider a distributionally robust second-order stochastic dominance constrained optimization problem. We require the dominance constraints hold with respect to all probability distributions in a Wasserstein ball centered at the empirical distribution. We adopt the sample approximation approach […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roger D. Blandford | First 5 Authors: Noemie Globus, Anatoli Fedynitch, Roger D. Blandford, , | Summary: It has been proposed that spin-polarized cosmic radiation can induce asymmetric changes in helical biopolymers that may account for the emergence of biological homochirality. The parity violation in the weak interaction has direct consequences on the […]
