MAXI J1820+070 X-ray spectral-timing reveals the nature of the accretion flow in black hole binaries

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 […]

TESS spots a mini-neptune interior to a hot saturn in the TOI-2000 system

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 […]

Towards a nonperturbative construction of the $S$-matrix

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 […]

On ${mathcal N}=4$ supersymmetry enhancements in three dimensions

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 […]

Zero-Shot 3D Drug Design by Sketching and Generating

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 […]

Feasibility Analyses and Experimental Confirmation of Dove Prism Based Dual-fiberscope Rotary Joint

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 […]

Validation of TOI-1221 b, a warm sub-Neptune exhibiting TTVs around a Sun-like star

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 […]

Mitf is a Schwann Cell Sensor of Axonal Integrity that Drives Nerve Repair

Kavli Affiliate: Samuel Pfaff | Authors: Lydia Daboussi, Giancarlo Costaguta, Miriam Gullo, Veronica Pessino, Brendan O’Leary, Karen Lettieri, Shawn Driscoll and Samuel L. Pfaff | Summary: Abstract Schwann cells respond to acute axon damage by transiently transdifferentiating into specialized repair cells that restore sensorimotor function. However, the molecular systems controlling repair cell formation and function […]
