High-pressure characterization of Ag$_3$AuTe$_2$: Implications for strain-induced band tuning

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Juyeon Won, Rong Zhang, Cheng Peng, Ravhi Kumar, Mebatsion S. Gebre | Summary: Recent band structure calculations have suggested the potential for band tuning in a chiral semiconductor, Ag$_3$AuTe$_2$, to zero upon application of negative strain. In this study, we report on the synthesis of polycrystalline Ag$_3$AuTe$_2$ […]

Temporal-Coherence Induces Binding in Responses to Sound Sequences in Ferret Auditory Cortex

Kavli Affiliate: Mounya Elhilali/p> | Authors: Kai Lu, Kelsey Dutta, Ali Mohammed, Mounya Elhilali and Shihab Shamma | Summary: Binding the attributes of a sensory source is necessary to perceive it as a unified entity, one that can be attended to and extracted from its surrounding scene. In auditory perception, this is the essence of […]

Gravitational Production of Completely Dark Photons with Nonminimal Couplings to Gravity

Kavli Affiliate: Edward W. Kolb | First 5 Authors: Christian Capanelli, Leah Jenks, Edward W. Kolb, Evan McDonough, | Summary: Dark photons are a theorized massive spin-1 particle which can be produced via various mechanisms, including cosmological gravitational particle production (GPP) in the early universe. In this work, we extend previous results for GPP of […]

X-ray and Radio campaign of the Z-source GX 340+0: discovery of X-ray polarization and its implications

Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | Summary:We present the discovery of X-ray polarization from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary and Z-source, GX~340$+$0, using an Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observation in March 2024. Along with the IXPE observation, we conducted an extensive X-ray and radio monitoring campaign to ascertain the source properties during and around […]
