Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: John Rooney, Zhentao Luo, Lucas E. A. Stehouwer, Giordano Scappucci, Menno Veldhorst | Summary: Spin qubits in germanium gate-defined quantum dots have made considerable progress within the last few years, partially due to their strong spin-orbit coupling and site-dependent $g$-tensors. While this characteristic of the $g$-factors removes […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Peter Meisenheimer, Guy Moore, Shiyu Zhou, Hongrui Zhang, Xiaoxi Huang | Summary: A key challenge in antiferromagnetic spintronics is the control of spin configuration on nanometer scales applicable to solid-state technologies. Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) is a multiferroic material that exhibits both ferroelectricity and canted antiferromagnetism at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Tin Long Sunny Wong, Lars Bildsten, , , | Summary: RCB stars are $Lapprox10^4,L_{odot}$ solar-mass objects that can exhibit large periods of extinction from dust ejection episodes. Many exhibit semiregular pulsations in the range of $30-50$ days with semi-amplitudes of $0.05-0.3$ magnitude. Space-based photometry has discovered that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kira Poskanzer | Authors: Michelle K. Cahill, Yeraldith Rojas Perez, Amara Larpthaveesarp, Roberto Etchenique and Kira E Poskanzer | Summary: Norepinephrine (NE) is a critical neuromodulator that mediates a wide range of behavior and neurophysiology, including attention, arousal, plasticity, and memory consolidation. A major source of NE is the brainstem nucleus the locus […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Bethany Davies, Álvaro G. Iñesta, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: Quantum networks crucially rely on the availability of high-quality entangled pairs of qubits, known as entangled links, distributed across distant nodes. Maintaining the quality of these links is a challenging task due to the presence of time-dependent […]

Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Sabrina Ammann, Maximilian Hess, Debora Ramacciotti, Sándor P. Fekete, Paulina L. A. Goedicke | Summary: In recent years, strong expectations have been raised for the possible power of quantum computing for solving difficult optimization problems, based on theoretical, asymptotic worst-case bounds. Can we expect this to have […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Eric Sihite, Alireza Ramezani, Morteza Gharib, , | Summary: Robot designs can take many inspirations from nature, where there are many examples of highly resilient and fault-tolerant locomotion strategies to navigate complex terrains by using multi-functional appendages. For example, Chukar and Hoatzin birds can repurpose their wings […]
