Universal catastrophe time distributions of dynamically unstable polymers

Kavli Affiliate: Ariel Amir | First 5 Authors: Paul B. Dieterle, Jenny Zheng, Ethan Garner, Ariel Amir, | Summary: Dynamic instability — the growth, catastrophe, and shrinkage of quasi-one-dimensional filaments — has been observed in multiple biopolymers. Scientists have long understood the catastrophic cessation of growth and subsequent depolymerization as arising from the interplay of […]

Constructing graphs having Laplacian pair state transfer by an edge perturbation

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Wei Wang, Xiaogang Liu, Jing Wang, , | Summary: In this paper, we give some sufficient conditions for graphs with an edge perturbation between twin vertices to have Laplacian perfect pair state transfer as well as Laplacian pretty good pair state transfer. By those sufficient conditions, we […]

Tube-Balloon Logic for the Exploration of Fluidic Control Elements

Kavli Affiliate: George M. Whitesides | First 5 Authors: Jovanna A. Tracz, Lukas Wille, Dylan Pathiraja, Savita V. Kendre, Ron Pfisterer | Summary: The control of pneumatically driven soft robots typically requires electronics. Microcontrollers are connected to power electronics that switch valves and pumps on and off. As a recent alternative, fluidic control methods have […]

Detecting Preformed-Pair Current through Nonequilibrium Noise in the BCS–BEC Crossover

Kavli Affiliate: Mamoru Matsuo | First 5 Authors: Hiroyuki Tajima, Daigo Oue, Mamoru Matsuo, Takeo Kato, | Summary: We theoretically propose a method to identify the tunneling current carrier in interacting fermions from nonequilibrium noise in the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer to Bose–Einstein condensate crossover. The noise-to-current ratio, the Fano factor, can be a crucial probe for the […]

InferGrad: Improving Diffusion Models for Vocoder by Considering Inference in Training

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Zehua Chen, Xu Tan, Ke Wang, Shifeng Pan, Danilo Mandic | Summary: Denoising diffusion probabilistic models (diffusion models for short) require a large number of iterations in inference to achieve the generation quality that matches or surpasses the state-of-the-art generative models, which invariably results in slow inference […]

Predicting the Exoplanet Yield of the TESS Prime and Extended Missions Through Years 1-7

Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Michelle Kunimoto, Joshua N. Winn, George R. Ricker, Roland Vanderspek, | Summary: The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has discovered $sim$5000 planets and planet candidates after three and a half years of observations. With a planned second Extended Mission spanning Years 5 – 7 on the horizon, […]

Emergence of Crystalline Few-body Correlations in Mass-imbalanced Fermi Polarons

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Ruijin Liu, Cheng Peng, Xiaoling Cui, , | Summary: Identifying few-body correlations is an efficient tool to solve complex many-body problems. Polarons, interpolating between few- and many-body systems, serve as an ideal platform to achieve the goal. In this work, we reveal the emergence of various crystalline […]
