Two Massive Jupiters in Eccentric Orbits from the TESS Full Frame Images

Kavli Affiliate: Roland K. Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Mma Ikwut-Ukwa, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, George Zhou, Andrew Vanderburg | Summary: We report the discovery of two short-period massive giant planets from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Both systems, TOI-558 (TIC 207110080) and TOI-559 (TIC 209459275), were identified from the 30-minute cadence […]

Quantized and unquantized zero-bias tunneling conductance peaks in Majorana nanowires: Conductance below and above $ 2e^2/h $

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Haining Pan, Chun-Xiao Liu, Michael Wimmer, Sankar Das Sarma, | Summary: Majorana zero modes can appear at the wire ends of a 1D topological superconductor and manifest themselves as a quantized zero-bias conductance peak in the tunneling spectroscopy of normal-superconductor junctions. However, in superconductor-semiconductor hybrid nanowires, zero-bias […]
