Extending the Computational Reach of a Superconducting Qutrit Processor

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | First 5 Authors: Noah Goss, Samuele Ferracin, Akel Hashim, Arnaud Carignan-Dugas, John Mark Kreikebaum | Summary: Quantum computing with qudits is an emerging approach that exploits a larger, more-connected computational space, providing advantages for many applications, including quantum simulation and quantum error correction. Nonetheless, qudits are typically afflicted by more […]

Resolving the Binary Components of the Outbursting Protostar HBC 494 with ALMA

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Principe | First 5 Authors: Pedro Henrique Nogueira, Alice Zurlo, Sebastián Pérez, Camilo González-Ruilova, Lucas A. Cieza | Summary: Episodic accretion is a low-mass pre-main sequence phenomenon characterized by sudden outbursts of enhanced accretion. These objects are classified into two: protostars with elevated levels of accretion that lasts for decades or […]

Domain-specific cognitive impairment reflects prefrontal dysfunction in aged common marmosets

Kavli Affiliate: John Reynolds | Authors: Courtney Glavis-Bloom, Casey R Vanderlip, Payton A Asch and John H Reynolds | Summary: Age-related cognitive impairment is not expressed uniformly across cognitive domains. Cognitive functions that rely on brain areas that undergo substantial neuroanatomical changes with age often show age-related impairment, while those that rely on brain areas […]

Is the hydrogen of the 2’-hydroxyl group of HENMT1 a Schrödinger’s hydrogen?

Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Philipp Kaldis and Li Na Zhao | Summary: piRNAs are important in protecting germline integrity. 3’-terminal 2’-O-methylation is essential for piRNA maturation and to protect it from degradation. HENMT1 carries out the 2’-O-methylation, which is of key importance for piRNA stability and functionality. However, neither the structure nor the […]
