Measuring photoexcited electron and hole dynamics in ZnTe and modeling excited state core-valence effects in transient XUV reflection spectroscopy

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Hanzhe Liu, Jonathan M. Michelsen, Isabel M. Klein, Scott K. Cushing, | Summary: Transient XUV spectroscopy is growing in popularity for the measurement of solar fuel and photovoltaic materials as it can separately measure electron and hole energies for multiple elements at once. However, interpretation of […]

Optimal multifrequency weighting for CMB lensing

Posted by klaurent Cambridge

Kavli Affiliate: Blake Sherwin | First 5 Authors: Noah Sailer, Emmanuel Schaan, Simone Ferraro, Omar Darwish, Blake Sherwin | Summary: Extragalactic foregrounds in Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature maps lead to significant biases in CMB lensing reconstruction if not properly accounted for. Combinations of multi-frequency data have been used to minimize the overall map variance […]

Topological Optical Parametric Oscillation

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Arkadev Roy, Midya Parto, Rajveer Nehra, Christian Leefmans, Alireza Marandi | Summary: Topological insulators possess protected boundary states which are robust against disorders and have immense implications in both fermionic and bosonic systems. Harnessing these topological effects in non-equilibrium scenarios is highly desirable and has led to […]

Circuit quantum electrodynamics with two remote electron spins

Posted by klaurent Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Patrick Harvey-Collard, Jurgen Dijkema, Guoji Zheng, Amir Sammak, Giordano Scappucci | Summary: We report the coherent coupling of two electron spins at a distance via virtual microwave photons. Each spin is trapped in a silicon double quantum dot at either end of a superconducting resonator, achieving spin-photon […]

The Secret Higgstory of the Highest Temperature during Reheating

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Wayne Hu | First 5 Authors: Samuel Passaglia, Wayne Hu, Andrew J. Long, David Zegeye, | Summary: We study the role of the Standard Model Higgs condensate, formed during cosmological inflation, in the epoch of reheating that follows. We focus on the scenario where the inflaton decays slowly and perturbatively, so that there […]
