Dynamically Stable Radiation Pressure Propulsion of Flexible Lightsails for Interstellar Exploration

Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Ramon Gao, Michael D. Kelzenberg, Harry A. Atwater, , | Summary: Lightsail spacecraft, propelled to relativistic velocities via photon pressure using high power density laser radiation, offer a potentially new route to space exploration within and beyond the solar system, extending to interstellar distances. Such missions […]

Hierarchical Deviant Processing in Auditory Cortex of Awake Mice

Kavli Affiliate: Patrick Kanold | Authors: Dan Luo, Ji Liu, Ryszard Auksztulewicz, Tony Ka Wing Yip, Patrick O. Kanold and Jan W. Schnupp | Summary: Detecting patterns, and noticing unexpected pattern changes, in the environment is a vital aspect of sensory processing. Adaptation and prediction error responses are two components of neural processing related to […]

Forecasting subcritical cylinder wakes with Fourier Neural Operators

Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Peter I Renn, Cong Wang, Sahin Lale, Zongyi Li, Anima Anandkumar | Summary: We apply Fourier neural operators (FNOs), a state-of-the-art operator learning technique, to forecast the temporal evolution of experimentally measured velocity fields. FNOs are a recently developed machine learning method capable of approximating solution operators […]

Hippocampal area CA2 controls seizure dynamics, interictal EEG abnormalities and social comorbidity in mouse models of temporal lobe epilepsy

Kavli Affiliate: Steven Siegelbaum | Authors: Christos Panagiotis Lisgaras, Azahara Oliva, Sam Mckenzie, John LaFrancois, Steven A. Siegelbaum and Helen E. Scharman | Summary: Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures, abnormal activity between seizures, and impaired behavior. CA2 pyramidal neurons (PNs) are potentially important because inhibiting them with a chemogenetic approach […]

What Causes The Formation of Disks and End of Bursty Star Formation?

Philip F. Hopkins, Alexander B. Gurvich, Xuejian Shen, Zachary Hafen, Michael Y. Grudic | Summary: [[{“value”:”As they grow, galaxies can transition from irregular/spheroidal with ‘bursty’ star formation histories (SFHs), to disky with smooth SFHs. But even in simulations, the direct physical cause of such transitions remains unclear. We therefore explore this in a large suite […]

Characterization of a set of small planets with TESS and CHEOPS and an analysis of photometric performance

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Dominic Oddo, Diana Dragomir, Alexis Brandeker, Hugh P. Osborn, Karen Collins | Summary: The radius valley carries implications for how the atmospheres of small planets form and evolve, but this feature is visible only with highly precise characterizations of many small planets. We present the characterization of […]

Three-dimensional integration enables ultra-low-noise, isolator-free Si photonics

Kavli Affiliate: Kerry J. Vahala | First 5 Authors: Chao Xiang, Warren Jin, Osama Terra, Bozhang Dong, Heming Wang | Summary: While photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are being widely used in applications such as telecommunications and datacenter interconnects, PICs capable of replacing bulk optics and fibers in high-precision, highly-coherent applications will require ultra-low-noise laser sources […]
