Kavli Affiliate: C. M. Ignarra | Summary:The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is a dark matter detector centered on a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber. We report searches for new physics appearing through few-keV-scale electron recoils, using the experiment’s first exposure of 60 live days and a fiducial mass of 5.5t. The data are found to be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Danny Horta, Emily C. Cunningham, Robyn Sanderson, Kathryn V. Johnston, Alis Deason | Summary: Observational studies are finding stars believed to be relics of the earliest stages of hierarchical mass assembly of the Milky Way (i.e., proto-Galaxy). In this work, we contextualize these findings by studying the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Wei Ren, Xi Zhang, Jaden Ma, Xihe Han, Kenji Watanabe | Summary: We present a device architecture of hybrid-edge and dual-gated quantum point contact. We demonstrate improved electrostatic control over the separation, position, and coupling of each broken-symmetry compressible strip in graphene. Via low-temperature magneto-transport measurement, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: We present a device architecture of hybrid-edge and dual-gated quantum point contact. We demonstrate improved electrostatic control over the separation, position, and coupling of each broken-symmetry compressible strip in graphene. Via low-temperature magneto-transport measurement, we demonstrate selective manipulation over the evolution, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Lasenby | Summary:We use the new QUIJOTE-MFI wide survey (11, 13, 17 and 19 GHz) to produce spectral energy distributions (SEDs), on an angular scale of 1 deg, of the supernova remnants (SNRs) CTB 80, Cygnus Loop, HB 21, CTA 1, Tycho and HB 9. We provide new measurements of the polarized […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Woowon Byun, Minjin Kim, Yun-Kyeong Sheen, Dongseob Lee, Luis C. Ho | Summary: We search for quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) in a wide area of the south ecliptic pole (SEP) field, which has been and will continue to be intensively explored through various space missions. For this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Mingjian Wen, Matthew K. Horton, Jason M. Munro, Patrick Huck, Kristin A. Persson | Summary: The elasticity tensor that describes the elastic response of a material to external forces is among the most fundamental properties of materials. The availability of full elasticity tensors for inorganic crystalline […]

Kavli Affiliate: Denis Wirtz | Authors: Wenxuan Du, Jingyi Zhu, Yufei Wu, Ashley Kiemen, Sean Sun and Denis Wirtz | Summary: Matrix stiffness and corresponding mechano-signaling play indispensable roles in cellular phenotypes and functions. How tissue stiffness influences the behavior of monocytes, a major circulating leukocyte of the innate system, and how it may promote […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Hua-Li Li, Jing Wang, Li-Ping Xin, Jian-Ying Bai, Xu-Hui Han | Summary: Stellar white-light flares are believed to play an essential role on the physical and chemical properties of the atmosphere of the surrounding exoplanets. Here we report an optical monitoring campaign on the nearby flaring system […]
