Kavli Affiliate: Kishore V. Kuchibhotla, Adam S. Charles | Authors: Sharlen Moore, Zyan Wang, Ziyi Zhu, Ruolan Sun, Angel Lee, Adam Charles and Kishore V Kuchibhotla | Summary: A fundamental tenet of animal behavior is that decision-making involves multiple ‘controllers.’ Initially, behavior is goal-directed, driven by desired outcomes, shifting later to habitual control, where cues […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeanne Paz | Authors: Virginie Loison, Yuliya Voskobiynyk, Britta Lindquist, Deanna Necula, Dan Longrois, Jeanne T. Paz and David Holcman | Summary: Cortical electro-encephalography (EEG) has become the clinical reference for monitoring unconsciousness during general anesthesia. The current EEG-based monitors classify general anesthesia states simply as underdosed, adequate, or overdosed, with no transition […]
Kavli Affiliate: Winrich Freiwald | Authors: Amirhossein Farzmahdi, Wilbert Zarco, Winrich Freiwald, Nikolaus Kriegeskorte and Tal Golan | Summary: Primates can recognize objects despite 3D geometric variations such as in-depth rotations. The computational mechanisms that give rise to such invariances are yet to be fully understood. A curious case of partial invariance occurs in the […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed | Summary: We present a measurement of time-dependent rate asymmetries in $B^0to phi K^0_S$ decays to search for non-standard-model physics in $bto q overline{q}s$ transitions. The data sample is collected with the Belle II detector at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jian-Ying Bai, Jing Wang, Hua-Li Li, Li-Ping Xin, Guang-Wei Li | Summary: We observed active M dwarf star AD Leo for 146 hr in photometry by GWAC-F30 and also analyzed 528-hr photometric data of the star from TESS. A total of 9 and 70 flares are detected […]

Ramachandran | Authors: Alba Pacheco-Moreno, Anita Bollmann-Giolai, Govind Chandra, Paul Brett, Jack Davies, Owen Thornton, Philip Poole, Vinoy Ramachandran, James Brown, Paul Nicholson, Chris Ridout, Sarah DeVos and Jacob G. Malone | Summary: Plant associated microbes play vital roles in promoting plant growth and health, with plants secreting root exudates into […]
Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Emil J. Martinec, , , , | Summary: Conical defects of the form $(AdS_3times S^3)/Z_k$ have an exact orbifold description in worldsheet string theory, which we derive from their known presentation as gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. The configuration of strings and fivebranes sourcing this geometry is well-understood, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Molly Stevens | Summary:Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive and label-free chemical analysis technique, which plays a key role in the analysis and discovery cycle of various branches of science. Nonetheless, progress in Raman spectroscopic analysis is still impeded by the lack of software, methodological and data standardisation, and the ensuing fragmentation and lack […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Anusha Kalyaan, Paola Pinilla, Sebastiaan Krijt, Andrea Banzatti, Giovanni Rosotti | Summary: Substructures in protoplanetary disks can act as dust traps that shape the radial distribution of pebbles. By blocking the passage of pebbles, the presence of gaps in disks may have a profound effect on […]
