Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Yoshiki Matsuoka, Kazushi Iwasawa, Masafusa Onoue, Takuma Izumi, Nobunari Kashikawa | Summary: We present the spectroscopic discovery of 69 quasars at 5.8 < z < 7.0, drawn from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program (SSP) imaging survey data. This is the 16th publication from the Subaru […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: David Galindo, Jia Liu, Chris McMahon Stone, Mihai Ordean, | Summary: File-based encryption (FBE) schemes have been developed by software vendors to address security concerns related to data storage. While methods of encrypting data-at-rest may seem relatively straightforward, the main proponents of these technologies in mobile devices […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simeon Hellerman | Summary:The unitary Fermi gas, by virtue of its description as a nonrelativistic conformal field theory, has proven an interesting system by which the quantum properties of CFT can be held to experimental verification. Here, we examine the structure of conformal dimensions of charge-Q operators in nonrelativistic CFT, in the large-Q […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport, Lorne Nelson, Donald W. Kurtz, George Dufresne | Summary: Using the novel TESS 20-sec cadence data, we have discovered an unusual combination of pulsating stars in what we infer to be a binary system. The primary is a standard $delta$ Scuti star with […]
Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Ian Wong, Avi Shporer, George Zhou, Daniel Kitzmann, Thaddeus D. Komacek | Summary: We report the discovery of an ultrahot Jupiter with an extremely short orbital period of $0.67247414,pm,0.00000028$ days ($sim$16 hr). The $1.347 pm 0.047$ $R_{rm Jup}$ planet, initially identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cees Dekker | Summary:Self-organized pattern formation is vital for many biological processes. Reaction-diffusion models have advanced our understanding of how biological systems develop spatial structures, starting from homogeneity. However, biological processes inherently involve multiple spatial and temporal scales and transition from one pattern to another over time, rather than progressing from homogeneity to […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Evan Sheridan, Thomas F. Harrelson, Eric Sivonxay, Kristin A. Persson, M. Virginia P. Altoé | Summary: The performance of superconducting qubits is orders of magnitude below what is expected from theoretical estimates based on the loss tangents of the constituent bulk materials. This has been attributed […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tejal Desai | Authors: Joel A Finbloom, Preethi Raghavan, Michael Kwon, Bhushan N Kharbikar, Michelle A Yu and Tejal A Desai | Summary: Abstract New approaches are needed to treat bacterial biofilm infections, particularly those of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), which have high rates of antimicrobial resistance and are commonly found in chronic wound […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Evan Witt, Christopher B Langer, Nicolas Svetec and Li Zhao | Summary: Abstract Aging is a complex biological process that is accompanied by changes in gene expression and mutational load. In many species, including humans, older fathers pass on more paternally-derived de novo mutations; however, the cellular basis and […]
