Universal scaling solution for a rigidity transition: renormalization group flows near the upper critical dimension

Posted by dbos Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | First 5 Authors: Stephen J. Thornton, Danilo B. Liarte, Itai Cohen, James P. Sethna, | Summary: Rigidity transitions induced by the formation of system-spanning disordered rigid clusters, like the jamming transition, can be well-described in most physically relevant dimensions by mean-field theories. However, we lack a theoretical description of these […]

Towards a universal analytical model for Population III star formation: interplay between feedback and fragmentation

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Boyuan Liu, James Gurian, Kohei Inayoshi, Shingo Hirano, Takashi Hosokawa | Summary: JWST has brought us new insights into Cosmic Dawn with tentative detection of the unique signatures of metal-free Population III (Pop III) stars, such as strong HeII emission, extremely blue UV spectrum, and enhanced nitrogen […]

Kavli Affiliate: Terrence Sejnowski | Authors: Thomas M Bartol, Mariam Ordyan, Terrence J Sejnowski, Padmini Rangamani and Mary B Kennedy | Summary: Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a biochemical process in excitatory glutamatergic synapses in the Central Nervous System (CNS). It is initiated by a bout of synaptic activation that is strong enough to contribute to […]

The Neurobiology of Cognitive Fatigue and Its Influence on Effort-Based Choice

Posted by dbos Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Vikram Chib | Authors: Grace E Steward and Vikram S Chib | Summary: Feelings of cognitive fatigue emerge through repeated mental exertion and are ubiquitous in our daily lives. However, there is a limited understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms underlying the influence of cognitive fatigue on decisions to exert. We use functional magnetic […]

Sst- and Vip-Cre mouse lines without age-related hearing loss

Posted by dbos UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Andrea Hasenstaub | Authors: Calvin T Foss, Timothy Olsen, James Bigelow and Andrea R Hasenstaub | Summary: GABAergic interneurons, including somatostatin (SST) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) positive cells, play a crucial role in cortical circuit processing. Cre recombinase-mediated manipulation of these interneurons is facilitated by commercially available knock-in mouse strains such as […]
