Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Iosif Bena, Emil J. Martinec, Samir D. Mathur, Nicholas P. Warner, | Summary: The black-hole information paradox provides one of the sharpest foci for the conflict between quantum mechanics and general relativity and has become the proving-ground of would-be theories of quantum gravity. String theory has […]
Kavli Affiliate: Richard Partridge | First 5 Authors: Jonathan S. Wilson, Hanno Meyer zu Theenhausen, Belina von Krosigk, Elham Azadbakht, Ray Bunker | Summary: The SuperCDMS SNOLAB dark matter search experiment aims to be sensitive to energy depositions down to O(1 eV). This imposes requirements on the resolution, signal efficiency, and noise rejection of the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Angelo Caravano, Eiichiro Komatsu, Kaloian D. Lozanov, Jochen Weller, | Summary: We present the first nonlinear lattice simulation of an axion field coupled to a U(1) gauge field during inflation. We use it to fully characterize the statistics of the primordial curvature perturbation {zeta}. We find high-order […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Angelo Caravano, Eiichiro Komatsu, Kaloian D. Lozanov, Jochen Weller, | Summary: If gauge fields are coupled to an axion field during inflation, they lead to unique observational signatures within the reach of next generation experiments. However, this system often shows strong backreaction effects, invalidating the standard perturbation […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Natasha Hurley-Walker, Timothy J. Galvin, Stefan W. Duchesne, Xiang Zhang, John Morgan | Summary: We describe a new low-frequency wideband radio survey of the southern sky. Observations covering 72 – 231 MHz and Declinations south of $+30^circ$ have been performed with the Murchison Widefield Array "extended" Phase […]
Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Yutao Zhou, Chun Wang, Hongliang Yan, Yang Huang, Bo Zhang | Summary: The puzzle of Li-rich giant is still unsolved, contradicting the prediction of the standard stellar models. Although the exact evolutionary stages play a key role in the knowledge of Li-rich giants, a limited number of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alessandra Lanzara | First 5 Authors: Maximilian Huber, Yi Lin, Nicholas Dale, Renee Sailus, Sefaattin Tongay | Summary: Charge density waves (CDW) are states of broken symmetry with a periodic modulation of charge and lattice typically leading to the opening of a gap in the band structure. In the model CDW system 1T-TiSe$_2$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Biao Huang | First 5 Authors: Zhiyinan Huang, Jinfeng Liu, Biao Huang, , | Summary: Water scarcity is an urgent issue to be resolved and improving irrigation water-use efficiency through closed-loop control is essential. The complex agro-hydrological system dynamics, however, often pose challenges in closed-loop control applications. In this work, we propose a […]
