Dual electro-optic frequency comb photonic thermometry

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Adam J. Fleisher, Zeeshan Ahmed, Tobias Herman, Matthew R. Hartings, | Summary: We report a precision realization of photonic thermometry using dual-comb spectroscopy to interrogate a $pi$-phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating. We achieve read-out stability of 7.5 mK at 1 s and resolve temperature changes of similar magnitude–sufficient […]

Visualizing and manipulating chiral interface states in a moiré quantum anomalous Hall insulator

Kavli Affiliate: Alex Zettl | Summary:Moiré systems made from stacked two-dimensional materials host novel correlated and topological states that can be electrically controlled via applied gate voltages. We have used this technique to manipulate Chern domains in an interaction-driven quantum anomalous Hall insulator made from twisted monolayer-bilayer graphene (tMBLG). This has allowed the wavefunction of […]

Search for an invisible $Z^prime$ in a final state with two muons and missing energy at Belle II

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed | Summary: The $L_{mu}-L_{tau}$ extension of the standard model predicts the existence of a lepton-flavor-universality-violating $Z^{prime}$ boson that couples only to the heavier lepton families. We search for such a $Z^prime$ through its invisible decay in […]

The alarm pheromone and alarm response of the clonal raider ant

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Kronauer | Authors: Lindsey E. Lopes, Erik T. Frank, Zsolt Kárpáti, Thomas Schmitt and Daniel J.C. Kronauer | Summary: Abstract Ants communicate via an arsenal of different pheromones produced in a variety of exocrine glands. For example, ants release alarm pheromones in response to danger to alert their nestmates and to trigger […]

Microdissection and culturing of adult lateral entorhinal cortex layer II neurons from APP/PS1 Alzheimer model mice

Kavli Affiliate: Menno Witter, Asgeir Kobro-Flatmoen | Authors: Katrine Sjaastad Hanssen, Menno P. Witter, Axel Sandvig, Ioanna Sandvig and Asgeir Kobro-Flatmoen | Summary: Abstract Background Primary neuronal cultures enable cell-biological studies of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), albeit typically non-neuron-specific. The first cortical neurons affected in AD reside in layer II of the lateralmost part of the […]
