Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Mario F. Gely, Adrián Sanz Mora, Shun Yanai, Rik van der Spek, Daniel Bothner | Summary: Nonlinear damping, the change in damping rate with the amplitude of oscillations plays an important role in many electrical, mechanical and even biological oscillators. In novel technologies such as carbon […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Mario F. Gely, Adrián Sanz Mora, Shun Yanai, Rik van der Spek, Daniel Bothner | Summary: Nonlinear damping, a force of friction that depends on the amplitude of motion, plays an important role in many electrical, mechanical and even biological oscillators. In novel technologies such as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Paul K. Todd, Matthew J. McDermott, Christopher L. Rom, Adam A. Corrao, Jonathan J. Denney | Summary: In sharp contrast to molecular synthesis, materials synthesis is generally presumed to lack selectivity. The few known methods of designing selectivity in solid-state reactions have limited scope, such as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Ilana J. Porter, Angela Lee, Scott K. Cushing, Hung-Tzu Chang, Justin C. Ondry | Summary: Silicon nanoparticles have the promise to surpass the theoretical efficiency limit of single-junction silicon photovoltaics by the creation of a "phonon bottleneck", a theorized slowing of the cooling rate of hot […]
Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Takuma Izumi, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Seiji Fujimoto, Masafusa Onoue, Michael A. Strauss | Summary: We present ALMA [CII] 158 $mu$m line and underlying far-infrared (FIR) continuum emission observations ($0”.70 times 0”.56$ resolution) toward HSC J124353.93$+$010038.5 (J1243$+$0100) at $z = 7.07$, the only low-luminosity ($M_{rm 1450} > -25$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Naoki Yasuda | First 5 Authors: Wenting Wang, Xiangchong Li, Jingjing Shi, Jiaxin Han, Naoki Yasuda | Summary: Using photometric galaxies from the HSC survey, we measure the stellar mass density profiles for satellite galaxies as a function of the projected distance, $r_p$, to isolated central galaxies (ICGs) selected from SDSS/DR7 spectroscopic galaxies […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Christian Leefmans, Avik Dutt, James Williams, Luqi Yuan, Midya Parto | Summary: Topological phases feature robust edge states that are protected against the effects of defects and disorder. The robustness of these states presents opportunities to design technologies that are tolerant to fabrication errors and resilient to […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: David T. Limmer, Chloe Y. Gao, Anthony R. Poggioli, , | Summary: Understanding transport processes in complex nanoscale systems, like ionic conductivities in nanofluidic devices or heat conduction in low dimensional solids, poses the problem of examining fluctuations of currents within nonequilibrium steady states and relating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Vahe Petrosian | First 5 Authors: Houdun Zeng, Vahé Petrosian, Tingfeng Yi, , | Summary: Multi-wavelength analyses of spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) provide useful information on the physical processes in the accretion disk and jets of black holes. This, however, is limited to bright sources and may not represent the population […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Shuoxing Wu, Brian Lenardo, Giorgio Gratta, , | Summary: We report on a low energy measurement of the ionization yield in a Tetramethylsilane Time Projection Chamber (TPC) using 2.8 MeV neutrons from a deuterium-deuterium neutron generator. The proton recoil charge yield is measured at four different electric […]
