Role of the Hubble Scale in the Weak Lensing vs. CMB Tension

Kavli Affiliate: Wayne Hu | First 5 Authors: Lucas F. Secco, Tanvi Karwal, Wayne Hu, Elisabeth Krause, | Summary: We explore a re-parameterization of the lensing amplitude tension between weak lensing (WL) and cosmic microwave background (CMB) data and its implications for a joint resolution with the Hubble tension. Specifically, we focus on the lensing […]

A New Method for Finding Nearby White Dwarf Exoplanets and Detecting Biosignatures

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg, Kevin B. Stevenson, Simon Blouin, Caroline Morley | Summary: We demonstrate that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) can detect infrared (IR) excess from the blended light spectral energy distribution of spatially unresolved terrestrial exoplanets orbiting nearby white dwarfs. We find that […]

Ultrastructure of synaptic connectivity within sub-regions of the SCN revealed by genetically encoded EM tag and SBEM

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Ellisman | Authors: Hugo Calligaro, Azarin Shoghi, Xinyue Chen, Keun-Young Kim, Yu Hsin Liu, Brian Khov, Benjamin Finander, Hiep Le, Mark H Ellisman and Satchidananda Panda | Summary: Abstract The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus of the vertebrate brain is the central pacemaker regulating circadian rhythmicity throughout the body. The SCN […]

Neuronal activity-related transcription is blunted in immature compared to mature dentate granule cells

Kavli Affiliate: Fred Gage | Authors: Sarah L Parylak, Fan Qiu, Sara B Linker, Iryna S Gallina, Christina K Lim, David Preciado, Aidan H McDonald and Fred H Gage | Summary: Abstract Immature dentate granule cells (DGCs) generated in the hippocampus during adulthood are believed to play a unique role in dentate gyrus function. Although […]

Curvature and dynamical spacetimes: can we peer into the quantum regime?

Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Sperhake | First 5 Authors: Vitor Cardoso, David Hilditch, Krinio Marouda, José Natário, Ulrich Sperhake | Summary: Stationary compact astrophysical objects such as black holes and neutron stars behave as classical systems from the gravitational point of view. Their (observable) curvature is everywhere "small". Here we investigate whether mergers of such objects, […]

Multimodal Channel-Mixing: Channel and Spatial Masked AutoEncoder on Facial Action Unit Detection

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Huiyuan Yang, Taoyue Wang, Xiaotian Li, Lijun Yin | Summary: Recent studies have focused on utilizing multi-modal data to develop robust models for facial Action Unit (AU) detection. However, the heterogeneity of multi-modal data poses challenges in learning effective representations. One such challenge is extracting […]
