Kavli Affiliate: Paul Alivisatos | Summary:The development of a colloidal synthesis procedure to produce nanomaterials of a specific size with high shape and size purity is often a time consuming, iterative process. This is often due to the time, resource and expertise intensive characterization methods required for quantitative determination of nanomaterial size and shape. Absorption […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Guang-Wei Li, Liang Wang, Hai-Long Yuan, Li-Ping Xin, Jing Wang | Summary: M-type stars are the ones that flare most frequently, but how big their maximum flare energy can reach is still unknown. We present 163 flares from 162 individual M2 through L1-type stars that triggered the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Yan-Rong Li, Chen Hu, Zhu-Heng Yao, Yong-Jie Chen, Hua-Rui Bai | Summary: We conduct a reverberation mapping (RM) campaign to spectroscopically monitor a sample of selected bright active galactic nuclei with large anticipated broad-line region (BLR) sizes adequate for spectroastrometric observations by the GRAVITY instrument on […]
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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Jared R. Davidson, Benjamin D. Boizelle, Jonelle L. Walsh, Aaron J. Barth, Emma Rasmussen | Summary: Dusty circumnuclear disks (CNDs) in luminous early-type galaxies (ETGs) show regular, dynamically cold molecular gas kinematics. For a growing number of ETGs, Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) CO imaging and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Min | Authors: Xiao Guo, Mina Farag, Naixin Qian, Xia Yu, Anton Ni, Yuefeng Ma, Wen Yu, Matthew King, Vicky Liu, Joonho Lee, Wei Min, Richard N Zare, Rohit V Pappu and Yifan Dai | Summary: TWe report the discovery that chemical reactions such as ATP hydrolysis can be catalyzed by condensates […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
