Universality of Effective Central Charge in Interface CFTs

Kavli Affiliate: Hirosi Ooguri | First 5 Authors: Andreas Karch, Yuya Kusuki, Hirosi Ooguri, Hao-Yu Sun, Mianqi Wang | Summary: When an interface connects two CFTs, the entanglement entropy between the two CFTs is determined by a quantity called the effective central charge. The effective central charge does not have a simple form in terms […]

EOS-dependent millihertz quasi-periodic oscillation in low-mass X-ray binary

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Helei Liu, Yong Gao, Zhaosheng Li, Akira Dohi, Weiyang Wang | Summary: We studied the frequency and critical mass accretion rate of millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations (mHz QPOs) using a one-zone X-ray burst model. The surface gravity is specified by two kinds of equation of states: neutron star […]

Erythroid differentiation dependent interaction of VPS13A with XK at the plasma membrane of K562 cells

Kavli Affiliate: Pietro De Camilli | Authors: Chase Amos, Peng Xu and Pietro De Camilli | Summary: Mutations of the bridge-like lipid transport protein VPS13A and of the lipid scramblase XK result in Chorea Acanthocytosis (ChAc) and McLeod syndrome (MLS) respectively, two similar conditions involving neurodegeneration and deformed erythrocytes (acanthocytes). VPS13A binds XK, suggesting a […]

Sex Differences in Human Music Perception are Negligible

Kavli Affiliate: Sarah Woolley | Authors: Mila Bertolo, Daniel Müllensiefen, Isabelle Peretz, Sarah C. Woolley, Jon T. Sakata and Samuel A. Mehr | Summary: Since Darwin1, researchers have proposed that human musicality evolved in a reproductive context in which males produce music to signal their mate quality to females. Sexually selected traits involve tradeoffs in […]

Gamma-Ray Bursts Observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite: Prompt Optical Counterparts and Afterglows of Swift-XRT Localized GRBs

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Michael Fausnaugh, George R. Ricker, Roland Vanderspek, | Summary: Very few detections have been made of optical flashes contemporaneous with prompt high-energy emission from a gamma-ray burst (GRB). In this work, we present and analyze light curves of GRB-associated optical flashes and afterglows from the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Michael Fausnaugh, George R. Ricker, Roland Vanderspek, | Summary: Throughout the past three decades, only a few tens of observations have been made of optical flashes contemporaneous with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), despite the thousands of GRBs that have been detected during that same timeframe. In […]

Two of a Kind: Comparing big and small black holes in binaries with gravitational waves

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Amanda M. Farah, Maya Fishbach, Daniel E. Holz, , | Summary: When modeling the population of merging binary black holes, analyses have generally focused on characterizing the distribution of primary (i.e. more massive) black holes in the binary, while simplistic prescriptions are used for the distribution […]
