Kavli Affiliate: Ali Hajimiri | First 5 Authors: Alex Ayling, Austin Fikes, Oren S. Mizrahi, Ailec Wu, Raha Riazati | Summary: Space solar power (SSP), envisioned for decades as a solution for continuous, stable, and dynamically dispatchable clean energy, has seen tremendous interest and a number of experimental demonstrations in the last few years. A […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roderick MacKinnon | Authors: Gonzalo Pérez-Mitta, Yeliz Sezgin, Weiwei Wang and Roderick MacKinnon | Summary: Abstract Integral membrane proteins (IMPs) constitute a large fraction of organismal proteomes, playing fundamental roles in physiology and disease. Despite their importance, the mechanisms underlying dynamic features of IMPs, such as anomalous diffusion, protein-protein interactions, and protein clustering, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sander Otte | First 5 Authors: Rik Broekhoven, Curie Lee, Soo-hyon Phark, Sander Otte, Christoph Wolf | Summary: Certifying quantum entanglement is a critical step towards realizing quantum-coherent applications of surface spin systems. In this work, we show that entanglement can be unambiguously shown in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) with electron spin […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Miller | First 5 Authors: Michael Wojnowicz, Preetish Rath, Eric Miller, Jeffrey Miller, Clifford Hancock | Summary: We seek to model a collection of time series arising from multiple entities interacting over the same time period. Recent work focused on modeling individual time series is inadequate for our intended applications, where collective […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hu Zhan | First 5 Authors: Zun Luo, Wei Du, Baocun Chen, Xianmin Meng, Hu Zhan | Summary: Precision measurements in astronomy require stringent control of systematics such as those arising from imperfect correction of sensor effects. In this work, we develop a parametric method to model the wavelength dependence of pixel response […]

In this work, we develop a parametric method to model the wavelength dependence of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Fengwei Xu, Ke Wang, Tie Liu, David Eden, Xunchuan Liu | Summary: High-latitude ($|b|>30^{circ}$) molecular clouds have virial parameters that exceed 1, but whether these clouds can form stars has not been studied systematically. Using JCMT SCUBA-2 archival data, we surveyed 70 fields that target high-latitude Planck […]

Kavli Affiliate: Naoki Yasuda | First 5 Authors: Zhuoxi Liang, Nao Suzuki, Mamoru Doi, Masayuki Tanaka, Naoki Yasuda | Summary: We present the luminosity functions and stellar mass functions of supernova (SN) host galaxies and test if they differ from the functions of normal field galaxies. We utilize homogeneous samples consisting of 273 SNe Ia […]
Kavli Affiliate: Seth Shipman | Authors: Asim G. Khan, Matías Rojas-Montero, Alejandro González-Delgado, Santiago C. Lopez, Rebecca F. Fang and Seth L. Shipman | Summary: Abstract Retrons are bacterial immune systems that use reverse transcribed DNA as a detector of phage infection. They are also increasingly deployed as a component of biotechnology. For genome editing, […]
