Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Berthy T. Feng, Alexander C. Ogren, Chiara Daraio, Katherine L. Bouman, | Summary: An object’s interior material properties, while invisible to the human eye, determine motion observed on its surface. We propose an approach that estimates heterogeneous material properties of an object from a monocular video of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vagins | Summary:The detections of gravitational waves (GW) by LIGO/Virgo collaborations provide various possibilities to physics and astronomy. We are quite sure that GW observations will develop a lot both in precision and in number owing to the continuous works for the improvement of detectors, including the expectation to the newly joined […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edward Morgan | Summary:Warm Jupiters — defined here as planets larger than 6 Earth radii with orbital periods of 8–200 days — are a key missing piece in our understanding of how planetary systems form and evolve. It is currently debated whether Warm Jupiters form in situ, undergo disk or high eccentricity tidal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edward H. Morgan | First 5 Authors: Jiayin Dong, Chelsea X. Huang, Rebekah I. Dawson, Daniel Foreman-Mackey, Karen A. Collins | Summary: Warm Jupiters — defined here as planets larger than 6 Earth radii with orbital periods of 8–200 days — are a key missing piece in our understanding of how planetary systems […]
Kavli Affiliate: Philipp Kukura | Summary:Measuring the electrophoretic mobility of molecules is a powerful experimental approach for investigating biomolecular processes. A frequent challenge in the context of single-particle measurements is throughput, limiting the obtainable statistics. Here, we present a molecular force sensor and charge detector based on parallelised imaging and tracking of tethered double-stranded DNA […]
Kavli Affiliate: Angela V. Olinto | First 5 Authors: Thomas C. Paul, Sarah T. Reese, Luis A. Anchordoqui, Angela V. Olinto, Thomas Y. Chen | Summary: Macroscopic dark matter (or macro) provides a broad class of alternative candidates to particle dark matter. These candidates would transfer energy primarily through elastic scattering, and this linear energy […]
