Kavli Affiliate: Katia Bertoldi | First 5 Authors: Giovanni Bordiga, Eder Medina, Sina Jafarzadeh, Cyrill Boesch, Ryan P. Adams | Summary: Harnessing the rich nonlinear dynamics of highly-deformable materials has the potential to unlock the next generation of functional smart materials and devices. However, unlocking such potential requires effective strategies to spatially design optimal material […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Anna-Christina Eilers, Ruari Mackenzie, Elia Pizzati, Jorryt Matthee, Joseph F. Hennawi | Summary: We expect luminous ($M_{1450}lesssim-26.5$) high-redshift quasars to trace the highest density peaks in the early universe. Here, we present observations of four $zgtrsim6$ quasar fields using JWST/NIRCam in imaging and widefield slitless spectroscopy […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Anna-Christina Eilers, Ruari Mackenzie, Elia Pizzati, Jorryt Matthee, Joseph F. Hennawi | Summary: We expect luminous ($M_{1450}lesssim-26.5$) high-redshift quasars to trace the highest density peaks in our universe, and therefore to reside in proto-clusters encompassing an abundance of galaxies in close vicinity. Here, we present observations […]
Kavli Affiliate: Richard Huganir | Authors: Thomas L Dunham, Julia R Wilkerson, Richard C Johnson, Richard L. Huganir and Lenora J Volk | Summary: WWC2 (WW and C2 domain-containing protein) is implicated in several neurological disorders, however its function in the brain has yet to be determined. Here, we demonstrate that WWC2 interacts with inhibitory […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hana El-Samad | Authors: Sarah S. Soliman, Devan H. Shah, Hana El-Samad and Zara Y. Weinberg | Summary: Synthetic developmental biology uses engineering approaches to understand multicellularity with goals ranging from recapitulating development to building synthetic organisms. Current approaches include engineering multicellular patterning, controlling differentiation, and implementing cooperative cellular behaviors in model systems. […]

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Steven Christe, Lindsay Glesener, Camilo Buitrago-Casas, Shin-Nosuke Ishikawa, Brian Ramsey | Summary: The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI) sounding rocket payload flew for the second time on 2014 December 11. To enable direct Hard X-Ray (HXR) imaging spectroscopy, FOXSI makes use of grazing-incidence replicated focusing optics […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Kejie Bao, Huan Wang, Yadong Jiang, Haosheng Xu, Jing Wang | Summary: The interplay between non-trivial topology and strong electron interaction can generate a variety of exotic quantum matter. Here we theoretically propose that monolayer transition metal trihalides MoF$_3$ and WI$_3$ have isolated nearly flat band near […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Mingxuan Du, Jia Liu, Xiao-Ping Wang, Tianhao Wu, | Summary: We study a millicharged co-interacting dark matter scenario, where the primary dark matter constituent is the dark photon $A’$ and the secondary component is the fermion $chi$. In this model, $chi$ interacts with $A’$ via a $U(1)’$ […]
