Host–pathogen–vector continuum in a changing landscape: Drivers of Bartonella prevalence and evidence of historic spillover in a tropical multi–host community

Posted by klaurent UCSD / Salk

Kavli Affiliate: V. S. Ramachandran | Authors: B.R. Ansil, Ashwin Viswanathan, Vivek Ramachandran, H.M. Yeshwanth, Avirup Sanyal and Uma Ramakrishnan | Summary: Our understanding of pathogen spillover is largely based on viral systems associated with bats. Bacterial infections of zoonotic origin also pose a significant public health burden, many of which are associated with small […]

Geometric frustration of hard-disk packings on cones

Posted by klaurent Harvard

Kavli Affiliate: Vinothan N. Manoharan | First 5 Authors: Jessica H. Sun, Abigail Plummer, Grace H. Zhang, David R. Nelson, Vinothan N. Manoharan | Summary: Conical surfaces pose an interesting challenge to crystal growth: a crystal growing on a cone can wrap around and meet itself at different radii. We use a disk-packing algorithm to […]

Simplicity of AdS Super Yang-Mills at One Loop

Posted by dbos UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Xinan Zhou | First 5 Authors: Zhongjie Huang, Bo Wang, Ellis Ye Yuan, Xinan Zhou, | Summary: We perform a systematic bootstrap analysis of four-point one-loop Mellin amplitudes for super gluons in $mathrm{AdS}_5timesmathrm{S}^3$ with arbitrary Kaluza-Klein weights. The analysis produces the general expressions for these amplitudes at extremalities two and three, as well […]

Dualities and Discretizations of Integrable Quantum Field Theories from 4d Chern-Simons Theory

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Meer Ashwinkumar, Jun-ichi Sakamoto, Masahito Yamazaki, , | Summary: We elucidate the relationship between 2d integrable field theories and 2d integrable lattice models, in the framework of the 4d Chern-Simons theory. The 2d integrable field theory is realized by coupling the 4d theory to multiple 2d surface […]

101 Eclipsing Quadruple Star Candidates Discovered in TESS Full Frame Images

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Saul A. Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Saul A. Rappaport, Tamas Borkovits, Robert Gagliano | Summary: We present our second catalog of quadruple star candidates, containing 101 systems discovered in TESS Full-Frame Image data. The targets were initially detected as eclipsing binary stars with the help of […]

Universal Gravitational Waves from Interacting and Clustered Solitons

Posted by dbos Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Kaloian D. Lozanov, Misao Sasaki, Volodymyr Takhistov, , | Summary: Causal soliton formation (e.g. oscillons, Q-balls) in the primordial Universe is expected to give rise to a universal gravitational wave (GW) background, at frequencies smaller than scales of nonlinearity. We show that modifications of the soliton density […]

Hybrid Strangeon Stars

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Chen Zhang, Yong Gao, Cheng-Jun Xia, Renxin Xu, | Summary: It was conjectured that the basic units of the ground state of bulk strong matter may be strange-clusters called strangeons, and they can form self-bound strangeon stars that are highly compact. Strangeon stars can develop a strange […]
