Kavli Affiliate: Daniel S. Akerib | First 5 Authors: Jodi Cooley, Tongyan Lin, W. Hugh Lippincott, Tracy R. Slatyer, Tien-Tien Yu | Summary: This report summarizes the findings of the CF1 Topical Subgroup to Snowmass 2021, which was focused on particle dark matter. One of the most important scientific goals of the next decade is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: Yunchong Zhang, Brian Nord, Amanda Pagul, Michael Lepori, | Summary: In observational astronomy, noise obscures signals of interest. Large-scale astronomical surveys are growing in size and complexity, which will produce more data and increase the workload of data processing. Developing automated tools, such as convolutional neural networks […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Salvatore Vitale, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Colm Talbot, , | Summary: The growing set of gravitational-wave sources is being used to measure the properties of the underlying astrophysical populations of compact objects, black holes and neutron stars. Most of the detected systems are black hole binaries. While much has […]
Kavli Affiliate: W. L. Kimmy Wu | First 5 Authors: Daniel Green, Joshua T. Ruderman, Benjamin R. Safdi, Jessie Shelton, Ana Achúcarro | Summary: We summarize progress made in theoretical astrophysics and cosmology over the past decade and areas of interest for the coming decade. This Report is prepared as the TF09 "Astrophysics and Cosmology" […]

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Jacqueline A Overton, Karen A Moxon, Matthew P Stickle, Logan M Peters, Jack J Lin, Edward F Chang, Robert T Knight, Ming Hsu and Ignacio Saez | Summary: Abstract Value-based decision-making involves multiple cortical and subcortical brain areas, but the exact nature of neural activity underlying choice behavior has […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel J. Needleman | First 5 Authors: Bezia Lemma, Linnea Lemma, Stephanie C. Ems-McClung, Claire E. Walczak, Zvonimir Dogic | Summary: Connecting the large-scale emergent behaviors of active materials to the microscopic properties of their constituents is a challenge due to a lack of data on the multiscale dynamics and structure of such […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Huan Wang, Yadong Jiang, Zhaochen Liu, Jing Wang, | Summary: Topological flat bands at the Fermi level offer a promising platform to study a variety of intriguing correlated phase of matter. Here we present band engineering in the twisted orbital-active bilayers with spin-orbit coupling. The symmetry constraints […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Brian L. Kim, Christoper Chong, Setare Hajarolasvadi, Yifan Wang, Chiara Daraio | Summary: The propagation of acoustic and elastic waves in time-varying, spatially homogeneous media can exhibit different phenomena when compared to traditional spatially-varying, temporally-homogeneous media. In the present work, the response of a one-dimensional phononic lattice […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Isabel M. Klein, Alex Krotz, Jonathan M. Michelsen, Scott K. Cushing, | Summary: Transient X-ray spectroscopies have become ubiquitous in studying photoexcited dynamics in solar energy materials due to their sensitivity to carrier occupations and local chemical or structural dynamics. The interpretation of solid-state photoexcited dynamics, […]
