Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Clemente Smarra, Adrien Kuntz, Enrico Barausse, Boris Goncharov, Diana López Nacir | Summary: Millisecond pulsars are extremely precise celestial clocks: as they rotate, the beamed radio waves emitted along the axis of their magnetic field can be detected with radio telescopes, which allows for tracking subtle changes […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Baum, Patrick Huber, Patrick Stengel, Natsue Abe, Daniel G. Ang | Summary: The second "Mineral Detection of Neutrinos and Dark Matter" (MDvDM’24) meeting was held January 8-11, 2024 in Arlington, VA, USA, hosted by Virginia Tech’s Center for Neutrino Physics. This document collects contributions from this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Blake Sherwin | First 5 Authors: Emilie Hertig, Kevin Wolz, Toshiya Namikawa, Antón Baleato Lizancos, Susanna Azzoni | Summary: The Simons Observatory (SO), due to start full science operations in early 2025, aims to set tight constraints on inflationary physics by inferring the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ from measurements of CMB polarization $B$-modes. Its […]

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Niall MacCrann, Frank J. Qu, Toshiya Namikawa, Boris Bolliet, Hongbo Cai | Summary: Patchy reionization generates kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich (kSZ) anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Large-scale velocity perturbations along the line of sight modulate the small-scale kSZ power spectrum, leading to a trispectrum (or four-point function) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Liam Paninski | Authors: Claire P. Everett, Amy L. Norovich, Jessica E. Burke, Matthew R Whiteway, Pei-Yin Shih, Yuyang Zhu, Liam Paninski and Andres Bendesky | Summary: Animals coordinate their behavior with each other during both cooperative and agonistic social interactions. Such coordination often adopts the form of “turn taking”, in which the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Liam Paninski | Authors: Samaher Fageiry, Claire L Warriner, Jackson Loper, Liam Paninski, Thomas Reardon, Thomas M. Jessell, Rui M. Costa and Andrew Miri | Summary: The corticospinal tract exerts its influence on movement through spinal neurons, which can be divided into types that exhibit distinct functions. However, it remains unknown whether these […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Leonardo Coello Escalante, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: Using molecular simulation and continuum dielectric theory, we consider how electrochemical kinetics are modulated as a function of twist angle in bilayer graphene electrodes. By establishing an effective connection between twist angle and the screening length […]

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Jonah C. Rose, Paul Torrey, Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro, Mariangela Lisanti, Tri Nguyen | Summary: We introduce the DREAMS project, an innovative approach to understanding the astrophysical implications of alternative dark matter models and their effects on galaxy formation and evolution. The DREAMS project will ultimately comprise thousands of […]
