Kavli Affiliate: Rafael Yuste | Authors: Justin Lines and Rafael Yuste | Summary: Neuronal ensembles, defined as groups of coactive neurons, dominate cortical activity and are causally related to perceptual states and behavior. Interestingly, ensembles occur spontaneously in the absence of sensory stimulation. To better understand the function of ensembles in spontaneous activity, we explored […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul W. Sternberg | First 5 Authors: Tingtao Zhou, Xuan Wan, Daniel Zhengyu Huang, Zongyi Li, Zhiwei Peng | Summary: Bacteria can swim upstream due to hydrodynamic interactions with the fluid flow in a narrow tube, and pose a clinical threat of urinary tract infection to patients implanted with catheters. Coatings and structured […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Ellisman | Authors: Sumin Kim, Sebastien Phan, Thomas R Shaw, Mark H Ellisman, Sarah L Veatch, Sami J Barmada, Samuel S Pappas and William T Dauer | Summary: Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) regulate information transfer between the nucleus and cytoplasm. NPC defects are linked to several neurological diseases, but the processes governing […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicole A. Benedek | First 5 Authors: Guru Khalsa, Jeffrey Z. Kaaret, Nicole A. Benedek, , | Summary: We use theory and first-principles calculations to explore mechanisms for control of the translational and point group symmetries of crystals in ultrafast optical experiments. We focus in particular on mechanisms that exploit anharmonic (biquadratic) lattice […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | First 5 Authors: Junxin Chen, Benjamin B. Lane, Su Direkci, Dhruva Ganapathy, Xinghui Yin | Summary: The observables of a noisy quantum system can be estimated by appropriately filtering the records of their continuous measurement. Such filtering is relevant for state estimation and measurement-based quantum feedback control. It is therefore […]

Jinning Liang, Fangzhou Jiang, Shany Danieli, Andrew Benson, Phil Hopkins | Summary: [[{“value”:”The properties of globular clusters (GCs) contain valuable information of their host galaxies and dark-matter halos. In the remarkable example of ultra-diffuse galaxy, NGC5846-UDG1, the GC population exhibits strong radial mass segregation, indicative of dynamical-friction-driven orbital decay, which opens the possibility of using […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Kun-Peng Chen, Morgan Le Delliou, , | Summary: In principle, the local cosmic void can be simply modeled by the spherically symmetric Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) metric. In practice, the real local cosmic void is probably not spherically symmetric. In this paper, to reconstruct a more realistic […]
