JWST reveals excess cool water near the snowline in compact disks, consistent with pebble drift

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Andrea Banzatti, Klaus M. Pontoppidan, John Carr, Evan Jellison, Ilaria Pascucci | Summary: Previous analyses of mid-infrared water spectra from young protoplanetary disks observed with the Spitzer-IRS found an anti-correlation between water luminosity and the millimeter dust disk radius observed with ALMA. This trend was suggested […]

The Radial Distribution and Excitation of H2 around Young Stars in the HST-ULLYSES Survey

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Kevin France, Nicole Arulanantham, Erin Maloney, P. Wilson Cauley, P. Abraham | Summary: The spatial distribution and evolution of gas in the inner 10 au of protoplanetary disks form the basis for estimating the initial conditions of planet formation. Among the most important constraints derived from […]

Revealing abrupt transitions from goal-directed to habitual behavior

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 […]

Mapping general anesthesia states based on electro-encephalogram transition phases

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 […]

Design of a Majorana trijunction

Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Juan Daniel Torres Luna, Sathish R. Kuppuswamy, Anton R. Akhmerov, , | Summary: Braiding of Majorana states demonstrates their non-Abelian exchange statistics. One implementation of braiding requires control of the pairwise couplings between all Majorana states in a trijunction device. To have adiabaticity, a trijunction device […]
