Kavli Affiliate: Michael Roukes | Summary:Fingerprint analysis is a ubiquitous tool for pattern recognition with applications spanning from geolocation and DNA analysis to facial recognition and forensic identification. Central to its utility is the ability to provide accurate identification without an a priori mathematical model for the pattern. We report a data-driven fingerprint approach for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wayne Hu | 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, where the enhanced suppression and observational bounds are only moderately stronger than […]

Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Lasenby | Summary:The Poincaré 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 lead to strongly-coupled ghosts: the modern view is that only scalar torsion can propagate. To […]

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 […]
