A Novel Dual Probe-based Method for Mutation Detection using Isothermal Amplification

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Miller | Authors: Nidhi Nandu, Michael Miller, Yanhong Tong and Zhi-xiang Lu | Summary: Cost efficient and rapid detection tools to detect mutations especially those linked to drug-resistance are important to address concerns of the rising multi-drug resistance infections. Here we integrated dual probes, namely a calibrator probe and an indicator probe, […]

Efficient Generation of Multi-partite Entanglement between Non-local Superconducting Qubits using Classical Feedback

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | Summary:Quantum entanglement is one of the primary features which distinguishes quantum computers from classical computers. In gate-based quantum computing, the creation of entangled states or the distribution of entanglement across a quantum processor often requires circuit depths which grow with the number of entangled qubits. However, in teleportation-based quantum computing, […]

Qubit teleportation between a memory-compatible photonic time-bin qubit and a solid-state quantum network node

Kavli Affiliate: Wolfgang Tittel | Summary:We report on a quantum interface linking a diamond NV center quantum network node and 795nm photonic time-bin qubits compatible with Thulium and Rubidium quantum memories. The interface makes use of two-stage low-noise quantum frequency conversion and waveform shaping to match temporal and spectral photon profiles. Two-photon quantum interference shows […]

The Relativistic Spin Precession in the Compact Double Neutron Star System PSR~J1946+2052

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Lingqi Meng, Weiwei Zhu, Michael Kramer, Xueli Miao, Gregory Desvignes | Summary: We observe systematic profile changes in the visible pulsar of the compact double neutron star system PSR~J1946+2052 using observations with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The interpulse of PSR~J1946+2052 changed from single-peak to […]

NS5-brane backgrounds and coset CFT partition functions

Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Andrea Dei, Emil J. Martinec, , , | Summary: Worldsheet string theory is solvable for a variety of backgrounds involving Neveu-Schwarz fivebranes, in terms of gauged nonlinear sigma models on group manifolds. We compute the worldsheet torus partition function of these models, and propose gauging of […]

Observation of polarization density waves in SrTiO3

Kavli Affiliate: Ankit Disa | Summary:The nature of the "failed" ferroelectric transition in SrTiO3 has been a long-standing puzzle in condensed matter physics. A compelling explanation is the competition between ferroelectricity and an instability with a mesoscopic modulation of the polarization. These polarization density waves, which should become especially strong near the quantum critical point, […]

Local magnetic response of superconducting Sr$mathrm{_2}$RuO$mathrm{_4}$ thin films and rings

Kavli Affiliate: Darrell G. Schlom | First 5 Authors: G. M. Ferguson, Hari P. Nair, Nathaniel J. Schreiber, Ludi Miao, Kyle M. Shen | Summary: We conduct local magnetic measurements on superconducting thin-film samples of Sr$mathrm{_2}$RuO$mathrm{_4}$ using scanning Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) susceptometry. From the diamagnetic response, we extract the magnetic penetration depth, $lambda$, […]
