Kavli Affiliate: Kevin Yackle | Authors: Alastair MacDonald and Kevin Yacklei | Summary: Intonation in speech is the control of vocal pitch to layer expressive meaning to communication, like increasing pitch to indicate a question. Also, stereotyped patterns of pitch are used to create distinct “words”, like the ten sounds in the murine lexicon. A […]
Kavli Affiliate: Attila Losonczy | Authors: Stephanie A Herrlinger, Bovey Rao, Margaret E Conde Paredes, Anna L Tuttman, Haroon Arain, Erdem Varol, Joseph A Gogos and Attila Losonczy | Summary: Individuals with the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, one of the strongest genetic risk factors for schizophrenia, demonstrate cognitive impairments such as episodic memory dysfunction. Place cell […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Anirban Das, Noah Kurinsky, Rebecca K. Leane, , | Summary: We recently pointed out that power measurements of single quasiparticle devices can be used to detect dark matter. These devices have the lowest known energy thresholds, far surpassing standard direct detection experiments, requiring energy deposition above only […]

Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | First 5 Authors: Mason Ng, Paul S. Ray, Andrea Sanna, Tod E. Strohmayer, Alessandro Papitto | Summary: We present the discovery, with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), that SRGA J144459.2-604207 is a 447.9 Hz accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar (AMXP), which underwent a four-week long outburst starting on 2024 […]

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Ziming Liu, Yixuan Wang, Sachin Vaidya, Fabian Ruehle, James Halverson | Summary: Inspired by the Kolmogorov-Arnold representation theorem, we propose Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) as promising alternatives to Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLPs). While MLPs have fixed activation functions on nodes ("neurons"), KANs have learnable activation functions on edges ("weights"). […]

Kavli Affiliate: Norbert S. Schulz | First 5 Authors: Norbert S. Schulz, David P. Huenemoerder, David A. Principe, Marc Gagne, Hans Moritz Günther | Summary: The Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) is the closest site of very young ($sim$ 1 Myrs) massive star formation. The ONC hosts more than 1600 young and X-ray bright stars with […]
