Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Lasenby | First 5 Authors: Michael Hobson, Anthony Lasenby, , , | Summary: For conformally invariant gravity theories defined on Riemannian spacetime and having the Schwarzschild–de-Sitter (SdS) metric as a solution in the Einstein gauge, we consider whether one may conformally rescale this solution to obtain flat rotation curves, such as those […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Tom Dvir, Guanzhong Wang, Nick van Loo, Chun-Xiao Liu, Grzegorz P. Mazur | Summary: Majorana bound states constitute one of the simplest examples of emergent non-Abelian excitations in condensed matter physics. A toy model proposed by Kitaev shows that such states can arise at the ends of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, Peng Yuan, Dongfang Zhang, Guoqiang Xie, Kainan Xiong | Summary: Optical quadratic nonlinearity is ultrafast in nature, while parametric interaction usually manifests only the broadband characteristic. Enormous progress has been made toward broadband phase-matching for parametric amplification and wide applications. In existing devices of broadband […]
Kavli Affiliate: Harry Atwater | First 5 Authors: Behrooz Abiri, Manan Arya, Florian Bohn, Austin Fikes, Matan Gal-Katziri | Summary: We propose a novel design for a lightweight, high-performance space-based solar power array combined with power beaming capability for operation in geosynchronous orbit and transmission of power to Earth. We use a modular configuration of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Simon Ball | Authors: Luke T Slater, John A Williams, Paul N Schofield, Sophie Russell, Samantha C Pendleton, Andreas Karwath, Hilary Fanning, Simon Ball, Robert T Hoehndorf and Georgios V Gkoutos | Summary: Abstract Background Annotation of biomedical entities with ontology terms facilitates the use of background knowledge in analysis. Described entities may […]
Kavli Affiliate: Pietro DeCamilli | Authors: Daehun Park, Yumei Wu, Aaron Baublis and Pietro De Camilli | Summary: Ectopic expression in fibroblasts of synapsin 1 and synaptophysin is sufficient to generate condensates of vesicles highly reminiscent of synaptic vesicle (SV) clusters and with liquid-like properties. We show that unlike synaptophysin, other major integral SV membrane […]
Kavli Affiliate: James Knierim | Authors: Manu S Madhav, Ravikrishnan P Jayakumar, Brian Y Li, Francesco Savelli, James J Knierim and Noah J Cowan | Summary: Understanding the interplay between sensory input, endogenous neural dynamics, and behavioral output is key toward understanding the principles of neural computation. Hippocampal place cells are an ideal system to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alessandra Lanzara | First 5 Authors: Derek Bergner, Tai Kong, Ping Ai, Daniel Eilbott, Claudia Fatuzzo | Summary: Layered ferromagnets are thrilling materials from both a fundamental and technological point of view. VI3 is an interesting example, with a complex magnetism that differentiates it from the first reported Cr based layered ferromagnets. Here, […]
