Kavli Affiliate: Rana X. Adhikari | First 5 Authors: Hang Yu, Rana X. Adhikari, , , | Summary: Currently, the sub-60 Hz sensitivity of gravitational-wave (GW) detectors like Advanced LIGO is limited by the control noises from auxiliary degrees of freedom, which nonlinearly couple to the main GW readout. One particularly promising way to tackle […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Hengxiao Guo, Aaron J. Barth, Kirk T. Korista, Michael R. Goad, Edward M. Cackett | Summary: Photoionization modeling of active galactic nuclei (AGN) predicts that diffuse continuum (DC) emission from the broad-line region makes a substantial contribution to the total continuum emission from ultraviolet through near-infrared […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Daniel McKeown, James S. Bullock, Francisco J. Mercado, Zachary Hafen, Michael Boylan-Kolchin | Summary: We use FIRE-2 zoom cosmological simulations of Milky Way size galaxy halos to calculate astrophysical J-factors for dark matter annihilation and indirect detection studies. In addition to velocity-independent (s-wave) annihilation cross sections $sigma_v$, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: DANQING ZHU, David H Brookes, Akosua Busia, Ana Carneiro, Clara Fannjiang, Galina Popova, David Shin, Edward F Chang, Tomasz J. Nowakowski, Jennifer Listgarten and David V Schaffer | Summary: Abstract Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) hold tremendous promise as delivery vectors for clinical gene therapy, but they need improvement. AAVs with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Michael J. Motala, Xiang Zhang, Pawan Kumar, Eliezer F. Oliveira, Anna Benton | Summary: Heterostructure materials form the basis of much of modern electronics, from transistors to lasers and light-emitting diodes. Recent years have seen a renewed focus on creating heterostructures through the vertical integration of two-dimensional […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Xian Chen, Yong Chen, Mumien Cheng, Chen Jia, | Summary: The $L^p$ maximal inequalities for martingales are one of the classical results in the theory of stochastic processes. Here we establish the sharp moderate maximal inequalities for one-dimensional diffusion processes, which include the $L^p$ maximal inequalities as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Anne Noer Kolborg, Davide Martizzi, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, Hugo Pfister, Charli Sakari | Summary: The extent to which turbulence mixes gas in the face of recurrent infusions of fresh metals by supernovae (SNe) could help provide important constraints on the local star formation conditions. This includes predictions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Chantanelle Nava, Mercedes López-Morales, Annelies Mortier, Li Zeng, Helen A. C. Giles | Summary: We present mass and radius measurements of K2-79b and K2-222b, two transiting exoplanets orbiting active G-type stars. Their respective 10.99d and 15.39d orbital periods fall near periods of signals induced by stellar magnetic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sunil Golwala | First 5 Authors: Karthik Ramanathan, Taylor Aralis, Ritoban Basu Thakur, Bruce Bumble, Yen-Yung Chang | Summary: Phonon-mediated particle detectors employing Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KIDs) on Silicon substrates have demonstrated both O(10) eV energy resolution and mm position resolution, making them strong candidates for instrumenting next generation rare-event experiments such as […]
