Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Bo Li, Jing Wang, Qilong Wu, Qiwei Tian, Ping Li | Summary: Monolayer PbSe has been predicted to be a two-dimensional (2D) topological crystalline insulator (TCI) with crystalline symmetry-protected Dirac-cone-like edge states. Recently, few-layered epitaxial PbSe has been grown on the SrTiO3 substrate successfully, but the corresponding […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Changxu Cheng, Peng Wang, Cheng Da, Qi Zheng, Cong Yao | Summary: The diversity in length constitutes a significant characteristic of text. Due to the long-tail distribution of text lengths, most existing methods for scene text recognition (STR) only work well on short or seen-length text, lacking […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Liang-Gui Zhu, Xian Chen, , , | Summary: Massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) could be the loudest gravitational-wave (GW) sources in milli-Hertz (mHz) GW band, but their dynamical evolution may stall when the black holes reach the innermost parsec of a galaxy. Such a "final-parsec problem" could […]

Kavli Affiliate: Sven Herrmann | First 5 Authors: Janeth Valverde, Nicholas Kirschner, Zachary Metzler, Lucas D. Smith, Nicholas Cannady | Summary: The Compton Pair (ComPair) telescope is a prototype that aims to develop the necessary technologies for future medium energy gamma-ray missions and to design, build, and test the prototype in a gamma-ray beam and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: John A. Tomsick, Steven E. Boggs, Andreas Zoglauer, Dieter Hartmann, Marco Ajello | Summary: The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a NASA Small Explorer (SMEX) satellite mission in development with a planned launch in 2027. COSI is a wide-field gamma-ray telescope designed to survey the entire […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Fabio Pacucci, Bao Nguyen, Stefano Carniani, Roberto Maiolino, Xiaohui Fan | Summary: JWST is revolutionizing our understanding of the high-z Universe by expanding the black hole horizon, looking farther and to smaller masses, and revealing the stellar light of their hosts. New detections of high-z systems offer […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Ares Osborn, David J. Armstrong, Jorge Fernández Fernández, Henrik Knierim, Vardan Adibekyan | Summary: To date, thousands of planets have been discovered, but there are regions of the orbital parameter space that are still bare. An example is the short period and intermediate mass/radius space known as […]
