Recurring Planetary Debris Transits and Circumstellar Gas around White Dwarf ZTF J0328$-$1219

Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Zachary P. Vanderbosch, Saul Rappaport, Joseph A. Guidry, Bruce L. Gary, Simon Blouin | Summary: We present follow-up photometry and spectroscopy of ZTF J0328$-$1219 strengthening its status as a white dwarf exhibiting transiting planetary debris. Using TESS and Zwicky Transient Facility photometry, along with follow-up high speed […]

Modeling Dense Star Clusters in the Milky Way and Beyond with the Cluster Monte Carlo Code

Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Carl L. Rodriguez, Newlin C. Weatherford, Scott C. Coughlin, Pau Amaro Seoane, Katelyn Breivik | Summary: We describe the public release of the Cluster Monte Carlo Code (CMC) a parallel, star-by-star $N$-body code for modeling dense star clusters. CMC treats collisional stellar dynamics using H’enon’s method, […]

A long-lived solid-state optical quantum memory for high-rate quantum repeaters

Kavli Affiliate: Wolfgang Tittel | First 5 Authors: Mohsen Falamarzi Askarani, Antariksha Das, Jacob H. Davidson, Gustavo C. Amaral, Neil Sinclair | Summary: We argue that long optical storage times are required to establish entanglement at high rates over large distances using memory-based quantum repeaters. Triggered by this conclusion, we investigate the $^3$H$_6$ $leftrightarrow$ $^3$H$_4$ […]

Imaging spin-wave damping underneath metals using electron spins in diamond

Kavli Affiliate: Toeno Van Der Sar | First 5 Authors: Iacopo Bertelli, Brecht G. Simon, Tao Yu, Jan Aarts, Gerrit E. W. Bauer | Summary: Spin waves in magnetic insulators are low-damping signal carriers that could enable a new generation of spintronic devices. The excitation, control, and detection of spin waves by metal electrodes is […]
