Cerebellar-driven cortical dynamics enable task acquisition, switching and consolidation

Kavli Affiliate: Costa, Rui | Authors: Joseph Pemberton, Paul Chadderton and Rui Ponte Costa | Summary: Abstract To drive behavior, the cortex must bridge sensory cues with future outcomes. However, the principles by which cortical networks learn such sensory-behavioural transformations remain largely elusive. Here, we posit that the cerebellum assumes a crucial role in driving […]

JWST-TST DREAMS: Quartz Clouds in the Atmosphere of WASP-17b

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: David Grant, Nikole K. Lewis, Hannah R. Wakeford, Natasha E. Batalha, Ana Glidden | Summary: Clouds are prevalent in many of the exoplanet atmospheres that have been observed to date. For transiting exoplanets, we know if clouds are present because they mute spectral features and cause wavelength-dependent […]

Modelling Stochastic Star Formation History of Dwarf Galaxies in GRUMPY

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Yue Pan, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We investigate the impact of bursty star formation on several galaxy scaling relations of dwarf galaxies using the $texttt{GRUMPY}$ galaxy formation model. While this model reproduces the star formation rate (SFR)-stellar mass, stellar mass-gas mass, and stellar mass-metallicity relations, […]

Extreme mass-ratio inspiral and waveforms for a spinning body into a Kerr black hole via osculating geodesics and near-identity transformations

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Lisa V. Drummond, Philip Lynch, Alexandra G. Hanselman, Devin R. Becker, Scott A. Hughes | Summary: Understanding the orbits of spinning bodies in curved spacetime is important for modeling binary black hole systems with small mass ratios. At zeroth order in mass ratio, the smaller body […]

Indirect Probe of Electroweak-Interacting Particles at $μ$TRISTAN $μ^+μ^+$ Collider

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Risshin Okabe, Satoshi Shirai, , , | Summary: Recently, a novel collider, called $mu$TRISTAN, has been proposed, offering the capability to achieve high-energy collisions of anti-muons. This high-energy collider presents an exceptional opportunity for the discovery of electroweak-interacting massive particles (EWIMPs), which are predicted by various new […]

Characterizing Floquet topological phases by quench dynamics: A multiple-subsystem approach

Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Bei-Bei Wang, Long Zhang, , , | Summary: We investigate the dynamical characterization theory for periodically driven systems in which Floquet topology can be fully detected by emergent topological patterns of quench dynamics in momentum subspaces called band-inversion surfaces. We improve the results of a recent work […]

Phonon vortices at heavy impurities in two-dimensional materials

Kavli Affiliate: Gang Su | First 5 Authors: De-Liang Bao, Mingquan Xu, Ao-Wen Li, Gang Su, Wu Zhou | Summary: The advent of monochromated electron energy-loss spectroscopy has enabled atomic-resolution vibrational spectroscopy, which triggered interest in spatially localized or quasi-localized vibrational modes in materials. Here we report the discovery of phonon vortices at heavy impurities […]
