Gravitational Effects of Null Particles

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | Summary:We generalize earlier solutions of gravitational shocks sourced by distributional null stress-energy and analyze their observable effects. A systematic method is proposed to demonstrate consistency between the gravitational effects of a null perfect fluid, i.e. a photon gas, and a collection of gravitational shock waves from point null particles. The […]

Transition from adiabatic inspiral to plunge for eccentric binaries

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | Summary:Black hole binaries with small mass ratios will be critical targets for the forthcoming Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. They also serve as useful tools for understanding the properties of binaries at general mass ratios. In its early stages, such a binary’s gravitational-wave-driven inspiral can be modeled as […]

Measuring the Inconsistency of Large Language Models in Preferential Ranking

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Xiutian Zhao, Ke Wang, Wei Peng, , | Summary: Despite large language models’ (LLMs) recent advancements, their bias and hallucination issues persist, and their ability to offer consistent preferential rankings remains underexplored. This study investigates the capacity of LLMs to provide consistent ordinal preferences, a crucial aspect […]

Single-shot readout of the nuclear spin of an on-surface atom

Kavli Affiliate: Sander Otte | Summary:Nuclear spins owe their long-lived magnetic states to their excellent isolation from the environment. At the same time, a finite degree of interaction with their surroundings is necessary for reading and writing the spin state. Therefore, detailed knowledge of and control over the atomic environment of a nuclear spin is […]
