Kavli Affiliate: Aaron Roodman | Summary:During electro-optical testing of the camera for the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time, a unique low-signal pattern was found in differenced pairs of flat images used to create photon transfer curves, with peak-to-peak variations of a factor of 10^-3. A turbulent pattern of this […]

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | Summary:Recent observations by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) indicate a potential detection of a stochastic gravitational wave (GW) background. Metastable cosmic strings have been recognized as a possible source of the observed signals. In this paper, we propose an $R$-invariant supersymmetric new inflation model. It is characterized by a two-step symmetry […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Huan Wang, Huan Wang, , , | Summary: The pursuit of a lattice analogue for Landau levels has been a central theme in condensed matter physics. Although the correspondence between Chern bands and the lowest Landau level has been widely studied, a lattice realization of the first […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Huan Wang, Rui Shi, Zhaochen Liu, Jing Wang, | Summary: We construct a minimal lattice model to provide an orbital description of lowest and first Landau levels. With the maximally localized Wannier functions with $s$, $p_-$, $p_+$ orbital characteristics, a three-orbital model is developed, where the lowest […]
