Background Determination for the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Dark Matter Experiment

Kavli Affiliate: C. M. Ignarra | First 5 Authors: J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder, S. K. Alsum | Summary: The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment recently reported limits on WIMP-nucleus interactions from its initial science run, down to $9.2times10^{-48}$ cm$^2$ for the spin-independent interaction of a 36 GeV/c$^2$ WIMP at 90% confidence […]

The role of non-affine deformations in the elastic behavior of the cellular vertex model

Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Michael F. Staddon, Arthur Hernandez, Mark J. Bowick, Michael Moshe, M. Cristina Marchetti | Summary: The vertex model of epithelia describes the apical surface of a tissue as a tiling of polygonal cells, with a mechanical energy governed by deviations in cell shape from preferred, or […]
