Kavli Affiliate: Robert Edwards | Authors: George Bouras, Ghais Houtak, Ryan R Wick, Vijini Mallawaarachchi, Michael J. Roach, Bhavya Papudeshi, Louise M Judd, Anna E Sheppard, Robert A Edwards and Sarah Vreugde | Summary: Improvements in the accuracy and availability of long-read sequencing mean that complete bacterial genomes are now routinely reconstructed using hybrid (i.e. […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle, Belle II Collaborations, :, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal | Summary: We present the results of a search for the $b to dell^+ell^-$ flavor-changing neutral-current rare decays $B^{+, 0} to (eta, omega, pi^{+,0}, rho^{+, 0}) e^+e^-$ and $B^{+, 0} to (eta, omega, pi^{0}, rho^{+}) mu^+mu^-$ using a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Miller | Authors: Paul Richard Yulo, Nicolas Desprat, Monica L. Gerth, Barbara Ritzl-Rinkenberger, Andrew D Farr, Yunhao Liu, Xue-Xian Zhang, Michael Miller, Felipe Cava, Paul B. Rainey and Heather L Hendrickson | Summary: Maintenance of rod-shape in bacterial cells depends on the actin-like protein MreB. Deletion of mreB from Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul L. Schechter | First 5 Authors: Luke Weisenbach, Timo Anguita, Jordi Miralda-Escudé, Masamune Oguri, Prasenjit Saha | Summary: Microlensing near macro-caustics is a complex phenomenon in which swarms of micro-images produced by micro-caustics form on both sides of a macro-critical curve. Recent discoveries of highly magnified images of individual stars in massive […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Yue Pan, Anirudh Chiti, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Alexander P. Ji, Ting S. Li | Summary: We conducted an in-depth analysis of candidate member stars located in the peripheries of three ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy satellites of the Milky Way: Bo"otes I (Boo1), Bo"otes II (Boo2), and Segue […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Deveshi Buch, Ethan O. Nadler, Risa H. Wechsler, Yao-Yuan Mao, | Summary: We present Milky Way-est, a suite of 20 cosmological cold-dark-matter-only zoom-in simulations of Milky Way (MW)-like host halos. Milky Way-est hosts are selected such that they: ($i$) are consistent with the MW’s measured halo […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lee McCuller | First 5 Authors: Sander M. Vermeulen, Torrey Cullen, Daniel Grass, Ian A. O. MacMillan, Alexander J. Ramirez | Summary: The GQuEST (Gravity from the Quantum Entanglement of Space-Time) experiment uses tabletop-scale Michelson laser interferometers to probe for fluctuations in space-time. We present an interferometer design featuring a novel photon counting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Chao-Jun Feng, , , | Summary: The curved spacetime induced by gravitational waves can give rise to visual effects such as geometric distortions and redshift structures in the observed image. By establishing a mapping from the object’s surface coordinates to the observer’s screen coordinates, we […]
