Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Utkarsh Giri, Bridget C. Andersen, Pragya Chawla, Alice P. Curtin, Emmanuel Fonseca | Summary: The bright millisecond-duration radio burst from the Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154 in 2020 April was a landmark event, demonstrating that at least some fast radio burst (FRB) sources could be magnetars. The […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric D. Siggia | Authors: Archishman Raju and Eric Siggia | Summary: The lineage decision that generates the epiblast and primitive endoderm from the inner cell mass (ICM) is a paradigm for cell fate specification. Recent mathematics has formalized Waddington’s landscape metaphor and proven that lineage decisions in detailed gene network models must […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Jose Alonso Carpio, Nick Ekanger, Mukul Bhattacharya, Kohta Murase, Shunsaku Horiuchi | Summary: Rapidly rotating and strongly magnetized protoneutron stars (PNSs) created in core-collapse supernovae can drive relativistic magnetized winds. Ions and neutrons can be co-accelerated while they remain coupled through elastic collisions. We investigate the nucleosynthesis […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Jurgen Dijkema, Xiao Xue, Patrick Harvey-Collard, Maximilian Rimbach-Russ, Sander L. de Snoo | Summary: Direct interactions between quantum particles naturally fall off with distance. For future-proof qubit architectures, however, it is important to avail of interaction mechanisms on different length scales. In this work, we utilize a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Ruichao Yang, Wei Gao, Jing Ma, Hongzhan Lin, Zhiwei Yang | Summary: In recent years, we witness the explosion of false and unconfirmed information (i.e., rumors) that went viral on social media and shocked the public. Rumors can trigger versatile, mostly controversial stance expressions among social media […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Tianchun Wang, Dongsheng Luo, Wei Cheng, Haifeng Chen, Xiang Zhang | Summary: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) resurge as a trending research subject owing to their impressive ability to capture representations from graph-structured data. However, the black-box nature of GNNs presents a significant challenge in terms of comprehending […]
