Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier White Paper: Fundamental Physics and Beyond the Standard Model

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso, Zoltán Haiman, Daniel E. Holz, Emil Mottola | Summary: Gravitational wave detectors are formidable tools to explore strong-field gravity, especially black holes and neutron stars. These compact objects are extraordinarily efficient at producing electromagnetic and gravitational radiation. As such, they are ideal […]

Nonreciprocal Infrared Absorption via Resonant Magneto-optical Coupling to InAs

Kavli Affiliate: Harry Atwater | First 5 Authors: Komron Shayegan, Bo Zhao, Yonghwi Kim, Shanhui Fan, Harry Atwater | Summary: Nonreciprocal elements are a vital building block of electrical and optical systems. In the infrared regime, there is a particular interest in structures that break reciprocity because their thermal absorptive (and emissive) properties should not […]

QCD Axion Search with ILC Beam Facility

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Hajime Fukuda, Hidetoshi Otono, Satoshi Shirai, , | Summary: One of the most promising methods to search for axions is a light-shining-through-walls (LSW) experiment. In this work, we discuss the possibility of performing an LSW experiment at the ILC experiment, where photon beams are generated for positron […]

Cohesin erases genomic-proximity biases to drive stochastic Protocadherin expression for proper neural wiring

Kavli Affiliate: Daniele Canzio | Authors: Lea Kiefer, Gabrielle Isabelle F. Servito, Sandy M Rajkumar, Jennifer Langen, Anna Chiosso, Alexander Buckley, Elizabeth S. Cha, Adan Horta, Michael H Mui and Daniele Canzio | Summary: Clustered Protocadherin (Pcdh) proteins act as cell-surface recognition barcodes for neural circuit formation. Neurites expressing the same barcode repel each other, […]

An extended mixed finite element method for elliptic interface problems

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Pei Cao, Jinru Chen, Feng Wang, , | Summary: In this paper, we propose an extended mixed finite element method for elliptic interface problems. By adding some stabilization terms, we present a mixed approximation form based on Brezzi-Douglas-Marini element space and the piecewise constant function space, and […]

Not so fuzzy: excluding FDM with sizes and stellar kinematics of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Neal Dalal, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We use observations of ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxies to constrain the particle mass of ultra-light dark matter. Potential fluctuations created by wave interference in virialized "fuzzy" dark matter (FDM) halos dynamically heat stellar orbits in UFDs, some of which […]
