Prospects for Time-Domain and Multi-Messenger Science with AXIS

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: The AXIS Time-Domain, Multi-Messenger Science Working Group, :, Riccardo Arcodia, Franz E. Bauer | Summary: The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) promises revolutionary science in the X-ray and multi-messenger time domain. AXIS will leverage excellent spatial resolution (<1.5 arcsec), sensitivity (80x that of Swift), and a large […]

Constraints on Dark Matter from Dynamical Heating of Stars in Ultrafaint Dwarfs. Part 1: MACHOs and Primordial Black Holes

Kavli Affiliate: Peter W. Graham | First 5 Authors: Peter W. Graham, Harikrishnan Ramani, , , | Summary: We place limits on dark matter made up of compact objects significantly heavier than a solar mass, such as MACHOs or primordial black holes (PBHs). In galaxies, the gas of such objects is generally hotter than the […]

Black holes regulate cold gas accretion in massive galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Tao Wang, Ke Xu, Yuxuan Wu, Yong Shi, David Elbaz | Summary: Nearly every massive galaxy contains a supermassive black hole (BH) at its center. For decades, both theory and numerical simulations have indicated that BHs play a central role in regulating the growth and quenching […]

Coherent Self-Interactions of Dark Matter in the Bullet Cluster

Kavli Affiliate: Peter W. Graham | First 5 Authors: Zachary Bogorad, Peter W. Graham, Harikrishnan Ramani, , | Summary: Many models of dark matter include self-interactions beyond gravity. A variety of astrophysical observations have previously been used to place limits on the strength of such self-interactions. However, previous works have generally focused either on short-range […]

Investigating egocentric tuning in hippocampal CA1 neurons using simulated data

Kavli Affiliate: Edvard Moser & May-Britt Moser | Authors: Jordan Carpenter, Jan Sigurd Blackstad, David Tingley, Valentin A. Normand, Edvard I. Moser, May-Britt Moser and Benjamin A. Dunn | Summary: Navigation requires integrating sensory information with a stable schema to create a dynamic map of an animal’s position using egocentric and allocentric coordinate systems. In […]

Microbiota-dependent early life programming of gastrointestinal motility

Kavli Affiliate: David Linden | Authors: Mary E Frith, Purna C Kashyap, David R Linden, Betty Theriault and Eugene B Chang | Summary: Gastrointestinal microbes modulate peristalsis and stimulate the enteric nervous system (ENS), whose development, as in the central nervous system (CNS), continues into the murine postweaning period. Given that adult CNS function depends […]

Bridging the Sim-to-Real Gap with Dynamic Compliance Tuning for Industrial Insertion

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Masayoshi Tomizuka, Hui Li, , | Summary: Contact-rich manipulation tasks often exhibit a large sim-to-real gap. For instance, industrial assembly tasks frequently involve tight insertions where the clearance is less than 0.1 mm and can even be negative when dealing with a deformable receptacle. This […]
