New three-dimensional dispersion in the type-II Dirac semimetals PtTe$_2$ and PdTe$_2$ revealed through Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy

Posted by dbos December 23, 2023Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Alessandra Lanzara | First 5 Authors: Ivan Pelayo, Derek Bergner, Archibald J. Williams, Jiayuwen Qi, Penghao Zhu | Summary: PtTe$_2$ and PdTe$_2$ are among the first transition metal dichalcogenides that were predicted to host type-II Dirac fermions, exotic particles prohibited in free space. These materials are layered and air-stable, which makes them top […]

Effects of parental age and polymer composition on short tandem repeat de novo mutation rates

Posted by dbos December 23, 2023January 8, 2024Columbia

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Goldberg | Authors: Michael E Goldberg, Michelle D Noyes, Evan E Eichler, Aaron Quinlan and Kelley Harris | Summary: Short tandem repeats (STRs) are hotspots of genomic variability in the human germline because of their high mutation rates, which have long been attributed largely to polymerase slippage during DNA replication. This model […]

A dynamical neural network approach for distributionally robust chance constrained Markov decision process

Posted by dbos December 23, 2023Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Tian Xia, Jia Liu, Zhiping Chen, , | Summary: In this paper, we study the distributionally robust joint chance constrained Markov decision process. {Utilizing the logarithmic transformation technique,} we derive its deterministic reformulation with bi-convex terms under the moment-based uncertainty set. To cope with the non-convexity and […]

Room temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors through metal-semiconductor transition in monolayer MnSe2

Posted by dbos December 23, 2023UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Gang Su | First 5 Authors: Jia-Wen Li, Gang Su, Bo Gu, , | Summary: To realize room temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors is still a challenge in spintronics. Recent experiments have obtained two-dimensional (2D) room temperature ferromagnetic metals, such as monolayer MnSe2. In this paper, we proposed a way to obtain room temperature ferromagnetic […]

Neurotrophin NT-4/5 Promotes Structural Changes in Neurons of the Developing Visual Cortex

Posted by dbos December 22, 2023January 8, 2024UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Antonella Antonini, Sheri L Harris and Michael P Stryker | Summary: Current hypotheses on the mechanisms underlying the development and plasticity of the ocular dominance system through competitive interactions between pathways serving the two eyes strongly suggest the involvement of neurotrophins and their high affinity receptors. In the cat, […]

Observational Signatures of AGN Feedback in the Morphology and the Ionization States of Milky Way-like Galaxies

Posted by dbos December 22, 2023MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Nadia Qutob, Razieh Emami, Kung-Yi Su, Randall Smith, Lars Hernquist | Summary: We make an in-depth analysis of different AGN jet models’ signatures, inducing quiescence in galaxies with a halo mass of $10^{12} M_odot$. Three jet models, including cosmic ray-dominant, hot thermal, and precessing kinetic jets, are […]
