Kavli Affiliate: Radomir Smida | Summary:Oscura is a proposed multi-kg skipper-CCD experiment designed for a dark matter (DM) direct detection search that will reach unprecedented sensitivity to sub-GeV DM-electron interactions with its 10 kg detector array. Oscura is planning to operate at SNOLAB with 2070 m overburden, and aims to reach a background goal of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Todor Milanov | Summary:Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety with a semisimple quantum cohomology. It is known that the blowup $operatornameBl_rm pt(X)$ of $X$ at one point also has semisimple quantum cohomology. In particular, the monodromy group of the quantum cohomology of $operatornameBl_rm pt(X)$ is a reflectiongroup. We found explicit formulas for […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Meng Wang, Tian Lin, Lianyu Wang, Aidi Lin, Ke Zou | Summary: Failure to recognize samples from the classes unseen during training is a major limitation of artificial intelligence in the real-world implementation for recognition and classification of retinal anomalies. We established an uncertainty-inspired open-set (UIOS) model, […]

Kavli Affiliate: V. S. Ramachandran | Authors: Abhishek Gopal, Sartaj Ghuman, Navendu Page, Vivek Ramachandran and Rohit Naniwadekar | Summary: Oceanic islands, due to their evolutionary history and isolation, hold a disproportionately high proportion of endemic species. However, their evolutionary history also makes them vulnerable to extinctions, with most known extinctions occurring on islands. Plant-animal […]
