Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | 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" topical […]
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, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Maria I. Bernardos | Summary: Most of the light from blazars, active galactic nuclei with jets of magnetized plasma that point nearly along the line of sight, is produced by high-energy particles, up to $sim 1$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Grzegorz M. Madejski | First 5 Authors: Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Maria I. Bernardos | Summary: Blazars are active galactic nuclei that launch collimated, powerful jets of magnetized relativistic plasma. Their primary jet, whose emission typically spans from low-frequency radio to very high-energy ($gtrsim0.1$ TeV) $gamma$-rays (Blandford […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Yukinobu Toda, , , | Summary: Quasi-BPS categories appear as summands in semiorthogonal decompositions of DT categories for Hilbert schemes of points in the three dimensional affine space and in the categorical Hall algebra of the two dimensional affine space. In this paper, we prove […]
