Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey A. Harvey | First 5 Authors: Zihni Kaan Baykara, Jeffrey A. Harvey, , , | Summary: We extend the investigation of special toroidal compactifications of heterotic string theory for which the half-BPS states provide representations of subgroups of the Conway group. We also explore dual descriptions of these theories and find that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin A. Kara | First 5 Authors: Christopher S. Reynolds, Robyn N. Smith, Andrew C. Fabian, Yasushi Fukazawa, Erin A. Kara | Summary: NGC1275 is the Brightest Cluster Galaxy (BCG) in the Perseus cluster and hosts the active galactic nucleus (AGN) that is heating the central 100,kpc of the intracluster medium (ICM) atmosphere […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Tiancong Zhu, Wei Ruan, Yan-Qi Wang, Hsin-Zon Tsai, Shuopei Wang | Summary: One-dimensional electron systems (1DESs) exhibit properties that are fundamentally different from higher-dimensional systems. For example, electron-electron interactions in 1DESs have been predicted to induce Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid behavior. Naturally-occurring grain boundaries in single-layer semiconducting transition […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: This paper presents and analyzes an immersed finite element (IFE) method for solving Stokes interface problems with a piecewise constant viscosity coefficient that has a jump across the interface. In the method, the triangulation does not need to fit the interface […]
Kavli Affiliate: K. Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Yulong Dong, K. Birgitta Whaley, Lin Lin, , | Summary: Hamiltonian simulation is one of the most important problems in quantum computation, and quantum singular value transformation (QSVT) is an efficient way to simulate a general class of Hamiltonians. However, the QSVT circuit typically involves multiple […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II collaboration, F. Abudinén, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal | Summary: We report a measurement of the $D^0$ and $D^+$ lifetimes using $D^0to K^-pi^+$ and $D^+to K^-pi^+pi^+$ decays reconstructed in $e^+e^-to cbar{c}$ data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Menglu Yu, Jia Liu, Chuan Wu, Bo Ji, Elizabeth S. Bentley | Summary: Recent years have witnessed a rapid growth of distributed machine learning (ML) frameworks, which exploit the massive parallelism of computing clusters to expedite ML training. However, the proliferation of distributed ML frameworks also introduces […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ariel Amir | First 5 Authors: Luyi Qiu, John W. Hutchinson, Ariel Amir, , | Summary: A thin-walled tube, e.g., a drinking straw, manifests an instability when bent by localizing the curvature change in a small region. This instability has been extensively studied since the seminal work of Brazier nearly a century ago. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roland K. Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Nicholas Saunders, Samuel K. Grunblatt, , , | Summary: While the population of confirmed exoplanets continues to grow, the sample of confirmed transiting planets around evolved stars is still limited. We present the discovery and confirmation of a hot Jupiter orbiting TOI-2184 (TIC 176956893), a massive […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline N. Hewitt | First 5 Authors: The HERA Collaboration, Zara Abdurashidova, James E. Aguirre, Paul Alexander, Zaki S. Ali | Summary: We report upper-limits on the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) 21 cm power spectrum at redshifts 7.9 and 10.4 with 18 nights of data ($sim36$ hours of integration) from Phase I of […]
