Kavli Affiliate: Sreeganga Chandra | Authors: Na Wang, Biqing Zhu, Mary Alice Allnutt, Rosalie M Grijalva, Hongyu Zhao and Sreeganga S Chandra | Summary: Synapse maintenance is essential for generating functional circuitry and decrement in this process is a hallmark of neurodegenerative disease. While we are beginning to understand the basis of synapse formation, much […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert Byer | Summary:We demonstrate a silicon-based electron accelerator that uses laser optical near fields to both accelerate and confine electrons over extended distances. Two dielectric laser accelerator (DLA) designs were tested, each consisting of two arrays of silicon pillars pumped symmetrically by pulse front tilted laser beams, designed for average acceleration gradients […]

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Wes Gurnee, Max Tegmark, , , | Summary: The capabilities of large language models (LLMs) have sparked debate over whether such systems just learn an enormous collection of superficial statistics or a coherent model of the data generation process — a world model. We find preliminary evidence […]

Kavli Affiliate: Laura Schaefer | Summary:Outgassing is a central process during the formation and evolution of terrestrial planets and their atmospheres both within and beyond the solar system. Although terrestrial planets’ early atmospheres likely form via outgassing during planetary accretion, the connection between a planet’s bulk composition and its initial atmospheric properties is not well […]

Thompson, Myriam Telus, Graham Harper Edwards, Laura Schaefer, Jasmeet Dhaliwal | Summary: Outgassing is a central process during the formation and evolution of terrestrial planets and their atmospheres both within and beyond the solar system. Although terrestrial planets’ early atmospheres likely form via outgassing during […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simeon Hellerman | Summary:It is shown that integrability is an accidental property of generic two-dimensional $O(2)$-symmetric asymptotically-free theories in the regime where the charge density is much larger than the dynamical scale. We show this by constructing an infinite tower of higher-spin conserved currents in the most generic effective Lagrangian at large chemical […]
