TESS discovery of a sub-Neptune orbiting a mid-M dwarf TOI-2136

Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Tianjun Gan, Abderahmane Soubkiou, Sharon X. Wang, Zouhair Benkhaldoun, Shude Mao | Summary: We present the discovery of TOI-2136b, a sub-Neptune planet transiting every 7.85 days a nearby M4.5V-type star, identified through photometric measurements from the TESS mission. The host star is located $33$ pc away with […]

Performance evaluation of baseline-dependent averaging based onfull-scale SKA1-LOW simulation

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Qing-Wen Deng, Feng Wang, Hui Deng, Ying Mei, Jing Li | Summary: The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is the largest radio interferometer under construction in the world. Its immense amount of visibility data poses a considerable challenge to the subsequent processing by the science data processor (SDP). […]

Universal control of a six-qubit quantum processor in silicon

Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Stephan G. J. Philips, Mateusz T. Mądzik, Sergey V. Amitonov, Sander L. de Snoo, Maximilian Russ | Summary: Future quantum computers capable of solving relevant problems will require a large number of qubits that can be operated reliably. However, the requirements of having a large qubit count […]

Desingularization and p-Curvature of Recurrence Operators

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yi Zhou, Mark van Hoeij, , , | Summary: Linear recurrence operators in characteristic $p$ are classified by their $p$-curvature. For a recurrence operator $L$, denote by $chi(L)$ the characteristic polynomial of its $p$-curvature. We can obtain information about the factorization of $L$ by factoring $chi(L)$. The […]

Decision formation in parietal cortex transcends a fixed frame of reference

Kavli Affiliate: Michael N Shadlen | Authors: NaYoung So and Michael N Shadlen | Summary: Neurons in the lateral intraparietal cortex (area LIP) represent the formation of a decision when it is linked to a specific action, such as an eye movement to a choice target. However, these neurons should be unable to represent a […]

The irreducible mass and the horizon area of LIGO’s black holes

Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Sperhake | First 5 Authors: Davide Gerosa, Cecilia Maria Fabbri, Ulrich Sperhake, , | Summary: The mass of a Kerr black hole can be separated into irreducible and rotational components -the former is a lower limit to the energy that cannot be possibly extracted from the event horizon and is related to […]
