Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Tenyo Kawamura, Magnus Axelsson, Chris Done, Tadayuki Takahashi, | Summary: The nature and geometry of the accretion flow in the low/hard state of black hole binaries is currently controversial. While most properties are generally explained in the truncated disc/hot inner flow model, the detection of a broad […]
Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: Shubh Agrawal, Bryan Steinbach, James J. Bock, Clifford Frez, Lorenzo Minutolo | Summary: We demonstrate strong negative electrothermal feedback accelerating and linearizing the response of a thermal kinetic inductance detector (TKID). TKIDs are a proposed highly multiplexable replacement to transition-edge sensors and measure power through the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Zhi-Cheng Yang, Yaodong Li, Matthew P. A. Fisher, Xiao Chen, | Summary: We explore a class of random tensor network models with “stabilizer” local tensors which we name Random Stabilizer Tensor Networks (RSTNs). For RSTNs defined on a two-dimensional square lattice, we perform extensive numerical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel J. Needleman | First 5 Authors: Bezia Lemma, Noah P. Mitchell, Radhika Subramanian, Daniel J. Needleman, Zvonimir Dogic | Summary: Mixtures of microtubules and molecular motors form active materials with diverse dynamical behaviors that vary based on their constituents’ molecular properties. We map the non-equilibrium phase diagram of microtubules and tip-accumulating kinesin-4 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Sjoert van Velzen, Dheeraj R. Pasham, Stefanie Komossa, Lin Yan, Erin A. Kara | Summary: Stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) are typically discovered by transient emission due to accretion or shocks of the stellar debris. Yet this luminous flare can be reprocessed by gas or dust […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Gayane Vardoyan, Matthew Skrzypczyk, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: Distributed quantum applications impose requirements on the quality of the quantum states that they consume. When analyzing architecture implementations of quantum hardware, characterizing this quality forms an important factor in understanding their performance. Fundamental characteristics of quantum hardware […]
Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Fangfei Shi, Donald W. Kurtz, Daniel L. Holdsworth, Hideyuki Saio, Margarida S. Cunha | Summary: We report the frequency analysis of a known roAp star, HD 86181 (TIC 469246567), with new inferences from TESS data. We derive the rotation frequency to be $nu_{rot}$ = 0.48753 $pm$ 0.00001d$^{-1}$. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Javier López-Cabrelles, Samuel Mañas-Valero, Iñigo J. Vitórica-Yrezábal, Makars Šiškins, Martin Lee | Summary: Through rational chemical design, and thanks to the hybrid nature of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), it is possible to prepare molecule-based 2D magnetic materials stable at ambient conditions. Here, we illustrate […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael P. Brenner | First 5 Authors: Katy Blumer, Subhashini Venugopalan, Michael P. Brenner, Jon Kleinberg, | Summary: We analyze a dataset of retinal images using linear probes: linear regression models trained on some "target" task, using embeddings from a deep convolutional (CNN) model trained on some "source" task as input. We use […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Björn Sbierski, Max Geier, An-Ping Li, Matthew Brahlek, Robert G. Moore | Summary: The combination of two-dimensional Dirac surface states with s-wave superconductivity is expected to generate localized topological Majorana zero modes in vortex cores. Putative experimental signatures of these modes have been reported for heterostructures […]
