Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Zeeshan Ahmed, , , , | Summary: In recent years there has been considerable interest in using photonic thermometers such as Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) and silicon ring resonators as an alternative technology to resistance-based legacy thermometers. Although FBG thermometers have been commercially available for decades their […]
Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Javier Ron, César Soto-Valero, Long Zhang, Benoit Baudry, Martin Monperrus | Summary: As all software, blockchain nodes are exposed to faults in their underlying execution stack. Unstable execution environments can disrupt the availability of blockchain nodes interfaces, resulting in downtime for users. This paper introduces the concept […]

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Caleb K. Harada, Courtney D. Dressing, Munazza K. Alam, James Kirk, Mercedes Lopez-Morales | Summary: Moons orbiting exoplanets ("exomoons") may hold clues about planet formation, migration, and habitability. In this work, we investigate the plausibility of exomoons orbiting the temperate ($T_text{eq}=294$ K) giant ($R = 9.2$ R$_oplus$) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Saul A. Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Veselin B. Kostov, Tamas Borkovits, Saul A. Rappaport, Brian P. Powell, Andras Pal | Summary: We present the discovery of a new highly compact quadruple star system, TIC 219006972, consisting of two eclipsing binary stars with orbital periods of 8.3 days and 13.7 days, and an […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline Gottlieb | Authors: Michael Cohanpour, Mariam Aly and Jacqueline Gottlieb | Summary: Humans are immensely curious and motivated to reduce uncertainty. Inspired by studies of sensory uncertainty, we hypothesized that visual areas provide multivariate representations of uncertainty, which are read out by higher-order areas that encode confidence and, ultimately, translated into curiosity. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Kevin B. Burdge, Kareem El-Badry, Saul Rappaport, Tin Long Sunny Wong, Evan B. Bauer | Summary: We report the discovery of ZTF J0127+5258, a compact mass-transferring binary with an orbital period of 13.7 minutes. The system contains a white dwarf accretor, which likely originated as a post-common […]
