Kavli Affiliate: Stefano Fusi | Authors: W. Jeffrey Johnston and Stefano Fusi | Summary: The brain has a well-known large scale organization at the level of brain regions, where different regions have been argued to primarily serve different behavioral functions. This regional specialization has been explained theoretically as arising from constraints on connectivity and the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chris Xu | First 5 Authors: Yishai Eisenberg, Wenchao Wang, Shitong Zhao, Eric S. Hebert, Yi-Hao Chen | Summary: An exciting recent development for deep-tissue imaging with cellular resolution is three-photon fluorescence microscopy (3PM) with excitation at long wavelengths (1300 and 1700 nm). In the last few years, long-wavelength 3PM has driven rapid […]

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Sebastiaan L. D. ten Haaf, Yining Zhang, Qingzhen Wang, Alberto Bordin, Chun-Xiao Liu | Summary: A chain of quantum dots (QDs) coupled via semiconductor-superconductor hybrid regions can form an artificial Kitaev chain hosting Majorana bound states (MBSs). These zero-energy states are expected to be localised on the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Joaquin Armijo, Gabriela A. Marques, Camila P. Novaes, Leander Thiele, Jessica A. Cowell | Summary: We use Minkowski functionals to analyse weak lensing convergence maps from the first-year data release of the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC-Y1) survey. Minkowski functionals provide a description of the morphological properties of […]
Kavli Affiliate: David H. Shoemaker | First 5 Authors: Kathryne J. Daniel, Joshua R. Smith, Stefan Ballmer, Warren Bristol, Jennifer C. Driggers | Summary: Cosmic Explorer (CE) is a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave observatory that is being designed in the 2020s and is envisioned to begin operations in the 2030s together with the Einstein Telescope in […]
