The Cepheid Extragalactic Distance Scale: Past, Present and Future

Kavli Affiliate: Wendy L. Freedman | First 5 Authors: Wendy L. Freedman, Barry F. Madore, , , | Summary: Cepheids have been the cornerstone of the extragalactic distance scale for a century. With high-quality data, these luminous supergiants exhibit a small dispersion in their Leavitt (period-luminosity) relation, particularly at longer wavelengths, and few methods rival […]

Fractional revival on semi-Cayley graphs over abelian groups

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, Ligong Wang, Xiaogang Liu, , | Summary: In this paper, we investigate the existence of fractional revival on semi-Cayley graphs over finite abelian groups. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for semi-Cayley graphs over finite abelian groups admitting fractional revival. We also show that […]

ES-MVSNet: Efficient Framework for End-to-end Self-supervised Multi-View Stereo

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Qiang Zhou, Chaohui Yu, Jingliang Li, Yuang Liu, Jing Wang | Summary: Compared to the multi-stage self-supervised multi-view stereo (MVS) method, the end-to-end (E2E) approach has received more attention due to its concise and efficient training pipeline. Recent E2E self-supervised MVS approaches have integrated third-party models (such […]

Spin pumping effect in non-Fermi liquid metals

Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiao-Tian Zhang, Xu-Ping Yao, Yuya Ominato, Long Zhang, Mamoru Matsuo | Summary: Spin pumping effect is a sensitive and well-established experimental method in two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materials. We propose that spin pumping effect can be a valuable probe for non-Fermi liquid (NFL) behaviors at the 2D interface […]
