The Slicer Combined with Array of Lenslets for Exoplanet Spectroscopy (SCALES): driving science cases and expected outcomes

Posted by dbos October 11, 2023October 23, 2023Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: The Slicer Combined with Array of Lenslets for Exoplanet Spectroscopy (SCALES) is a $2-5~mu$m, high-contrast integral field spectrograph (IFS) currently being built for Keck Observatory. With both low ($Rlesssim250$) and medium ($Rsim3500-7000$) spectral resolution IFS modes, SCALES will detect and characterize […]

The classical field approximation of ultra light dark matter: quantum breaktimes, corrections, and decoherence

Posted by dbos October 11, 2023Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Abel | First 5 Authors: Andrew Eberhardt, Alvaro Zamora, Michael Kopp, Tom Abel, | Summary: The classical field approximation is widely used to better understand the predictions of ultra-light dark matter. Here, we use the truncated Wigner approximation method to test the classical field approximation of ultra-light dark matter. This method approximates […]

Mapping energy landscapes of homopolymeric RNAs via simulated tempering and deep unsupervised learning

Posted by dbos October 10, 2023October 23, 2023UCSD / Salk

Kavli Affiliate: V. S. Ramachandran | Authors: Vysakh Ramachandran and Davit A Potoyan | Summary: Conformational dynamics plays crucial roles in RNA functions about sensing and responding to environmental signals. The liquid-liquid phase separation of RNAs and the formation of stress granules partly relies on RNA’s conformational plasticity and its ability to engage in multivalent […]
