Light Dark Matter Constraints from SuperCDMS HVeV Detectors Operated Underground with an Anticoincidence Event Selection

Posted by klaurent July 10, 2024Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: D. B. Macfarlane | Summary:This article presents constraints on dark-matter-electron interactions obtained from the first underground data-taking campaign with multiple SuperCDMS HVeV detectors operated in the same housing. An exposure of 7.63 g-days is used to set upper limits on the dark-matter-electron scattering cross section for dark matter masses between 0.5 and 1000 […]

Mobius Assembly for Plant Systems uncovers combinatorial interactions among promoters, coding sequences, and terminators in gene regulation

Posted by dbos July 10, 2024July 22, 2024Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Andreas Andreou | Authors: Elif Gediz Kocaoglan, Andreas Andreou, Jessica Nirkko, Marisol Ochoa-Villarreal, Gary Loake and Naomi Nakayama | Summary: Plants are the primary biological platforms for producing food, energy, and materials in agriculture; however, they are largely untouched by synthetic biology-driven transformation in bioproduction technologies. Molecular tools for complex, multigene engineering are […]

CHIME/FRB/Pulsar discovery of a nearby long period radio transient with a timing glitch

Posted by klaurent July 10, 2024MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Fengqiu Adam Dong, Fengqiu Adam Dong, , , | Summary: We present the discovery of a 421 s long period radio transient (LPT) using the CHIME telescope, CHIME J0630+25. The source is localized to RA=06:30:38.4$pm1’$ Dec=25:26:24$pm1’$ using voltage data acquired with the CHIME baseband system. A […]

The discovery of a nearby 421~s transient with CHIME/FRB/Pulsar

Posted by dbos July 10, 2024July 22, 2024MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Fengqiu Adam Dong, Tracy Clarke, Alice P. Curtin, Ajay Kumar, Ingrid Stairs | Summary: Neutron stars and white dwarfs are both dense remnants of post-main-sequence stars. Pulsars, magnetars and strongly magnetised white dwarfs have all been seen to been observed to exhibit coherent, pulsed radio emission […]

Event-Aided Time-to-Collision Estimation for Autonomous Driving

Posted by dbos July 10, 2024July 22, 2024UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Jinghang Li, Bangyan Liao, Xiuyuan LU, Peidong Liu, Shaojie Shen | Summary: Predicting a potential collision with leading vehicles is an essential functionality of any autonomous/assisted driving system. One bottleneck of existing vision-based solutions is that their updating rate is limited to the frame rate of standard […]
