Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Martijn de Vries, Roger W. Romani, , , | Summary: New X-ray and optical observations shed light on the remarkable X-ray filament of the Gamma-ray pulsar PSR~J2030+4415. Images of the associated H$alpha$ bow shock’s evolution over the past decade compared with its velocity structure provide an […]
Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Kang Yang, Daniel Varjas, Emil J. Bergholtz, Sid Morampudi, Frank Wilczek | Summary: We show that interactions in quantum spin liquids can result in non-Hermitian phenomenology that differs qualitatively from mean-field expectations. We demonstrate this in two prominent cases through the effects of phonons and disorder on […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Peter Abbamonte, Daniel Baxter, Yonatan Kahn, Gordan Krnjaic, Noah Kurinsky | Summary: In light of recent results from low-threshold dark matter detectors, we revisit the possibility of a common dark matter origin for multiple excesses across numerous direct detection experiments, with a focus on the excess rates […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Xiangyu Peng, Kai Wang, Zheng Zhu, Mang Wang, Yang You | Summary: Recent self-supervised contrastive learning methods greatly benefit from the Siamese structure that aims at minimizing distances between positive pairs. For high performance Siamese representation learning, one of the keys is to design good contrastive pairs. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Mingkun Li, Shupeng Cheng, Peng Xu, Xiatian Zhu, Chun-Guang Li | Summary: We investigate unsupervised person re-identification (Re-ID) with clothes change, a new challenging problem with more practical usability and scalability to real-world deployment. Most existing re-id methods artificially assume the clothes of every single person to […]
