Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Jeremy Heyl, Victor Doroshenko, Denis González-Caniulef, Ilaria Caiazzo, Juri Poutanen | Summary: In an accreting X-ray pulsar, a neutron star accretes matter from a stellar companion through an accretion disk. The high magnetic field of the rotating neutron star disrupts the inner edge of the disc, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Ryan Magee, Maximiliano Isi, Ethan Payne, Katerina Chatziioannou, Will M. Farr | Summary: Tests of general relativity with gravitational wave observations from merging compact binaries continue to confirm Einstein’s theory of gravity with increasing precision. However, these tests have so far only been applied to signals that […]

Kavli Affiliate: Albert Stebbins | First 5 Authors: Juhun Kwak, John Podczerwinski, Peter Timbie, Réza Ansari, John Marriner | Summary: The visibilities measured by radio astronomical interferometers include non-astronomical correlated signals that arise from the local environment of the array. These correlated signals are especially important in compact arrays such as those under development for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Sebastiaan L. D. ten Haaf, Qingzhen Wang, A. Mert Bozkurt, Chun-Xiao Liu, Ivan Kulesh | Summary: Artificial Kitaev chains can be used to engineer Majorana bound states (MBSs) in superconductor-semiconductor hybrids. In this work, we realize a two-site Kitaev chain in a two-dimensional electrongas by coupling two […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Francesco Zatelli, David van Driel, Di Xu, Guanzhong Wang, Chun-Xiao Liu | Summary: The recent realization of a two-site Kitaev chain featuring "poor man’s Majorana" states demonstrates a path forward in the field of topological superconductivity. Harnessing the potential of these states for quantum information processing, however, […]
