Kavli Affiliate: Adam Aron | Authors: Pria L Daniel, James J Bonaiuto, Sven Bestmann, Adam R Aron and Simon Little | Summary: Flexibility of behavior and the ability to rapidly switch actions is critical for adaptive living in humans. It is well established that the right-inferior frontal gyrus (R-IFG) is recruited during outright action-stopping, relating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel C. Ralph | First 5 Authors: Ruofan Li, Lauren J. Riddiford, Yahong Chai, Minyi Dai, Hai Zhong | Summary: We present room-temperature measurements of magnon spin diffusion in epitaxial ferrimagnetic insulator MgAl$_{0.5}$Fe$_{1.5}$O$_{4}$ (MAFO) thin films near zero applied magnetic field where the sample forms a multi-domain state. Due to a weak uniaxial […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kerry J. Vahala | First 5 Authors: Mingxiao Li, Lin Chang, Lue Wu, Jeremy Staffa, Jingwei Ling | Summary: The development of integrated semiconductor lasers has miniaturized traditional bulky laser systems, enabling a wide range of photonic applications. A progression from pure III-V based lasers to III-V/external cavity structures has harnessed low-loss waveguides […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Roland M. Crocker, Oscar Macias, Dougal Mackey, Mark R. Krumholz, Shin’ichiro Ando | Summary: The Fermi Bubbles are giant, gamma-ray emitting lobes emanating from the nucleus of the Milky Way discovered in ~1-100 GeV data collected by the Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roger Blandford | First 5 Authors: Roger Blandford, Noemie Globus, , , | Summary: We interpret the 1.3mm VLBI observations made by the Event Horizon Telescope of the black hole in M87. It is proposed that, instead of being a torus of accreting gas, the observed annular ring is a rotating, magnetically-dominated ergomagnetosphere […]

Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: George Zhou, Christopher P. Wirth, Chelsea X. Huang, Alexander Venner, Kyle Franson | Summary: The TESS mission has enabled discoveries of the brightest transiting planet systems around young stars. These systems are the benchmarks for testing theories of planetary evolution. We report the discovery of a mini-Neptune […]
Kavli Affiliate: John Silverman | First 5 Authors: John Silverman, Junyao Li, Xuheng Ding, , | Summary: The realization of fundamental relations between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies would have profound implications in astrophysics. To add further context to studies of their co-evolution, an investigation is carried out to gain insight as to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Abel L. Peirson, Ioannis Liodakis, Roger W. Romani, , | Summary: Both leptonic and hadronic emission processes may contribute to blazar jet emission; which dominates in blazars’s high energy emission component remains an open question. Some intermediate synchrotron peaked blazars transition from their low to high […]
