Axion detection via superfluid $^3$He ferromagnetic phase and quantum measurement techniques

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: So Chigusa, Dan Kondo, Hitoshi Murayama, Risshin Okabe, Hiroyuki Sudo | Summary: We propose to use the nuclear spin excitation in the ferromagnetic A1 phase of the superfluid $^3$He for the axion dark matter detection. This approach is striking in that it is sensitive to the axion-nucleon […]

A Hierarchical Framework for explaining the Cosmic Ray Spectrum using Diffusive Shock Acceleration

Kavli Affiliate: Roger Blandford | First 5 Authors: Roger Blandford, Paul Simeon, Noémie Globus, Payel Mukhopadhyay, Enrico Peretti | Summary: The hypothesis that the entire cosmic ray spectrum, from $lesssim1,{rm GeV}$ to $gtrsim100,{rm EeV}$ energy, can be accounted for by diffusive shock acceleration on increasingly large scales is critically examined. Specifically, it is conjectured that […]

Optimal Photodetector Size for High-Speed Free-Space Optics Receivers

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Muhammad Salman Bashir, Qasim Zeeshan Ahmed, Mohamed-Slim Alouini, , | Summary: The selection of an optimal photodetector area is closely linked to the attainment of higher data rates in optical wireless communication receivers. If the photodetector area is too large, the channel capacity degrades due to lower […]

Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex and Basolateral Amygdala Projections to Ventromedial Striatum Encode Active Avoidance Behavior

Kavli Affiliate: Lisa Gunaydin | Authors: Teagan E Bullock and Lisa A. Gunaydin | Summary: Active avoidance is a fundamental defensive behavior, defined as performing a voluntary action to escape a noxious stimulus. Active avoidance serves as an adaptive response to threat, ensuring safety. In individuals with anxiety disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder, avoidance behavior […]

What can galaxy shapes tell us about physics beyond the standard model?

Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Oliver H. E. Philcox, Morgane J. König, Stephon Alexander, David N. Spergel, | Summary: The shapes of galaxies trace scalar physics in the late-Universe through the large-scale gravitational potential. Are they also sensitive to higher-spin physics? We present a general study into the observational consequences of […]

Taking the Milky Way for a spin: disc formation in the ARTEMIS simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Adam M. Dillamore, Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov, Andreea S. Font, | Summary: We investigate the formation (spin-up) of galactic discs in the ARTEMIS simulations of Milky Way-mass galaxies. In almost all galaxies discs spin up at higher [Fe/H] than the Milky Way (MW). Those that contain an […]
