Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Yoseob Yoon, Zuocheng Zhang, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Sefaattin Tongay | Summary: Ultrafast charge transfer processes provide a facile way to create interlayer excitons and to generate single-cycle THz pulses in directly contacted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers. More sophisticated heterostructures composed of TMD/hBN/TMD can enable new […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Tenyo Kawamura, Chris Done, Magnus Axelsson, Tadayuki Takahashi, | Summary: Black hole X-ray binaries in the low/hard states display significant broad-band (stochastic) variability on short time-scales (0.01-100 seconds), with a complex pattern of lags in correlated variability seen in different energy bands. This behaviour is generally interpreted […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew M. Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Lizhou Sha, Andrew M. Vanderburg, Chelsea X. Huang, David J. Armstrong, Rafael Brahm | Summary: Hot jupiters (P < 10 d, M > 60 $mathrm{M}_oplus$) are almost always found alone around their stars, but four out of hundreds known have inner companion planets. These rare companions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dwight Bergles | Authors: Em P Harrington, Riley B Catenacci, Matthew D Smith, Dongeun Heo, Cecilia E Miller, Keya R Meyers, Jenna Glatzer, Dwight E Bergles and Peter A Calabresi | Summary: Abstract Oligodendrocytes and their progenitors upregulate MHC pathways in response to inflammation, but the frequency of this phenotypic change is unknown […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Brian Henning, Hitoshi Murayama, Francesco Riva, Jedidiah O. Thompson, Matthew T. Walters | Summary: We present a nonperturbative recipe for directly computing the $S$-matrix in strongly-coupled QFTs. The method makes use of spectral data obtained in a Hamiltonian framework and can be applied to a wide range […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kent Irwin | First 5 Authors: Phil Barbeau, Petra Merkel, Jinlong Zhang, Darin Acosta, Anthony A. Affolder | Summary: Detector instrumentation is at the heart of scientific discoveries. Cutting edge technologies enable US particle physics to play a leading role worldwide. This report summarizes the current status of instrumentation for High Energy Physics […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Benjamin Assel, Yuji Tachikawa, Alessandro Tomasiello, , | Summary: We introduce a class of 3d theories consisting of strongly-coupled ${mathcal N}=4$ systems coupled to ${mathcal N}=3$ Chern-Simons gauge multiplets, which exhibit ${mathcal N}=4$ enhancements when a peculiar condition on the Chern-Simons levels is met. An example is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Siyu Long, Yi Zhou, Xinyu Dai, Hao Zhou, | Summary: Drug design is a crucial step in the drug discovery cycle. Recently, various deep learning-based methods design drugs by generating novel molecules from scratch, avoiding traversing large-scale drug libraries. However, they depend on scarce experimental data or […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xingde Li | Authors: Yuehan Liu, Hyeon-Cheol Park, Haolin Zhang and Xingde Li | Summary: Abstract Two-photon fluorescence microscopy has enjoyed its wide adoption in neuroscience. Head-mounted miniaturized fiberscopes offered an exciting opportunity for enabling neural imaging in freely-behaving animals with high 3D resolution. Here we propose a dual-fiberscope rotary joint based on […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Christopher R. Mann, David Lafrenière, Diana Dragomir, Samuel N. Quinn, Thiam-Guan Tan | Summary: We present a successful validation of the long-period ($91.68278^{+0.00032}_{-0.00041}$ days) transiting sub-Neptune planet TOI-1221 b (TIC 349095149.01) around a Sun-like (m$_{rm V}$=10.5) star. We combine {it TESS} light curve measurements and ground-based time-series […]
