Integrating out beyond tree level and relativistic superfluids

Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | First 5 Authors: Austin Joyce, Alberto Nicolis, Alessandro Podo, Luca Santoni, | Summary: We revisit certain subtleties of renormalization that arise when one derives a low-energy effective action by integrating out the heavy fields of a more complete theory. Usually these subtleties are circumvented by matching some physical observables, such […]

SurroundDepth: Entangling Surrounding Views for Self-Supervised Multi-Camera Depth Estimation

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Yi Wei, Linqing Zhao, Wenzhao Zheng, Zheng Zhu, Yongming Rao | Summary: Depth estimation from images serves as the fundamental step of 3D perception for autonomous driving and is an economical alternative to expensive depth sensors like LiDAR. The temporal photometric constraints enables self-supervised depth estimation without […]

Impact of calibration uncertainties on Hubble constant measurements from gravitational-wave sources

Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Yiwen Huang, Hsin-Yu Chen, Carl-Johan Haster, Ling Sun, Salvatore Vitale | Summary: Gravitational-wave (GW) detections of electromagnetically bright compact binary coalescences can provide an independent measurement of the Hubble constant $H_0$. In order to obtain a measurement that could help arbitrating the existing tension on $H_0$, one […]

Music Influence Modeling Based on Directed Network Model

Kavli Affiliate: Lihong Wang | First 5 Authors: Xuan Zhang, Tingdi Ren, Lihong Wang, Haiyong Xu, | Summary: Studying the history of music may provide a glimpse into the development of human creativity as we examine the evolutionary and revolutionary trends in music and genres. First, a musical influence metric was created to construct a […]

Dark radiation as a probe for phase transition in the early universe

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Zihang Wang, Lijing Shao, , , | Summary: The cosmological constant is not necessarily small in the early universe. If a scalar field obtains a vacuum expectation value after a phase transition (PT), a possibly large cosmological constant could present before PT. The early cosmological constant (ECC) […]

Free-Floating Planets, the Einstein Desert, and ‘Oumuamua

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Andrew Gould, Youn Kil Jung, Kyu-Ha Hwang, Subo Dong, Michael D. Albrow | Summary: We complete the survey for finite-source/point-lens (FSPL) giant-source events in 2016-2019 KMTNet microlensing data. The 30 FSPL events show a clear gap in Einstein radius, $9,mu{rm as}<theta_{rm E} <26,mu{rm as}$, which is consistent […]
