Terahertz phonon engineering with van der Waals heterostructures

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Yoseob Yoon, Zheyu Lu, Can Uzundal, Ruishi Qi, Wenyu Zhao | Summary: Phononic engineering at gigahertz (GHz) frequencies form the foundation of microwave acoustic filters, acousto-optic modulators, and quantum transducers. Terahertz (THz) phononic engineering could lead to acoustic filters and modulators at higher bandwidth and speed, as […]

Entanglement transition in rod packings

Kavli Affiliate: L. Mahadevan | First 5 Authors: Yeonsu Jung, Thomas Plumb-Reyes, Hao-Yu Greg Lin, L. Mahadevan, | Summary: Random packings of stiff rods are self-supporting mechanical structures stabilized by long range interactions induced by contacts. To understand the geometrical and topological complexity of the packings, we deploy X-ray computerized tomography to unveil the structure […]

How Nested Bars Enhance, Modulate, and are Destroyed by Gas Inflows

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Zhi Li, Min Du, Victor P. Debattista, Juntai Shen, Hui Li | Summary: Gas flows in the presence of two independently-rotating nested bars remain not fully understood, which is likely to play an important role in fueling the central black hole. We use high-resolution hydrodynamical simulations with […]

An exact method for bosonizing the Fermi surface in arbitrary dimensions

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Takamori Park, Leon Balents, , , | Summary: Inspired by the recent work by Delacretaz et. al., we rigorously derive an exact and simple method to bosonize a non-interacting fermionic system with a Fermi surface starting from a microscopic Hamiltonian. In the long-wavelength limit, we show that […]

Gapped-kmer sequence modeling robustly identifies regulatory vocabularies and distal enhancers conserved between evolutionarily distant mammals

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Beer | Authors: Jin Woo Oh and Michael A Beer | Summary: Gene regulatory elements drive many complex biological phenomena such as fetal development, and their mutations are linked to a multitude of common human diseases. The phenotypic impacts of regulatory variants are often tested using their conserved orthologous counterparts in model […]
