Brain state and cortical layer-specific mechanisms underlying perception at threshold

Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy, John Reynolds | Authors: Mitchell P Morton, Sachira Denagamage, Isabel J Blume, John H Reynolds, Monika P Jadi and Anirvan S Nandy | Summary: Identical stimuli can be perceived or go unnoticed across successive presentations, producing divergent behavioral outcomes despite similarities in sensory input. We sought to understand how fluctuations in […]

TOI-2374 b and TOI-3071 b: two metal-rich sub-Saturns well within the Neptunian desert

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Alejandro Hacker, Rodrigo F. Díaz, David J. Armstrong, Jorge Fernández Fernández, Simon Müller | Summary: We report the discovery of two transiting planets detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), TOI-2374 b and TOI-3071 b, orbiting a K5V and an F8V star, respectively, with periods of […]

Warm and Fuzzy Dark Matter: Free Streaming of Wave Dark Matter

Kavli Affiliate: Wayne Hu | First 5 Authors: Rayne Liu, Wayne Hu, Huangyu Xiao, , | Summary: Wave or fuzzy dark matter that is produced with relativistic wavenumbers exhibits free streaming effects analogous to warm or hot particle dark matter with relativistic momenta. Axions produced after inflation provide such a warm or mildly relativistic candidate, […]

The imprint of dark matter on the Galactic acceleration field

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Arpit Arora, Robyn E. Sanderson, Sukanya Chakrabarti, Andrew Wetzel, Thomas Donlon II | Summary: Measurements of the accelerations of stars enabled by time-series extreme-precision spectroscopic observations, from pulsar timing, and from eclipsing binary stars in the Solar Neighborhood offer insights into the mass distribution of the Milky […]

Every Poincaré gauge theory is conformal: a compelling case for dynamical vector torsion

Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Lasenby | First 5 Authors: Will Barker, Michael Hobson, Anthony Lasenby, Yun-Cherng Lin, Zhiyuan Wei | Summary: The Poincar’e gauge theory (PGT) of gravity provides a viable formulation of general relativity (Einstein-Cartan theory), and a popular model-building framework for modified gravity with torsion. Notoriously, however, the PGT terms which propagate vector torsion […]

Event structure sculpts neural population dynamics in the lateral entorhinal cortex

Kavli Affiliate: Edvard Moser and May-Britt Moser | Authors: Benjamin R Kanter, Christine M Lykken, May-Britt Moser and Edvard I. Moser | Summary: Our experience of the world is a continuous stream of events which must be segmented and organized simultaneously at multiple timescales. The neural mechanisms underlying this process remain unknown. Here, we simultaneously […]
