Selective Targeting of a Defined Subpopulation of Corticospinal Neurons using a Novel Klhl14-Cre Mouse Line Enables Molecular and Anatomical Investigations through Development into Maturity

Posted by dbos UCSD / Salk

Kavli Affiliate: Eiman Azim | Authors: Jake Lustig, Alexander Lammers, Julia Kaiser, Payal Patel, Aidan Raghu, James M. Conner, Phong Nguyen, Eiman Azim and Vibhu Sahni | Summary: The corticospinal tract (CST) facilitates skilled, precise movements, which necessitates that subcerebral projection neurons (SCPN) establish segmentally specific connectivity with brainstem and spinal circuits. Developmental molecular delineation […]

Using Felis to Represent the Semantics and Metadata of Astronomical Data Catalogs

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Van Klaveren | Summary:The Data Management team of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory has developed a data description language and toolset, Felis, for defining the semantics and metadata of its public-facing data catalogs. Felis uses a rich Pydantic data model for describing and validating catalog metadata, expressed as a human-readable and editable […]

Low two-level-system noise in hydrogenated amorphous silicon

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Sunil Golwala | Summary:At sub-Kelvin temperatures, two-level systems (TLS) present in amorphous dielectrics source a permittivity noise, degrading the performance of a wide range of devices using superconductive resonators such as qubits or kinetic inductance detectors. We report here on measurements of TLS noise in hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) films deposited by plasma-enhanced […]

On the Relation between the Inclination Angle of the Accretion Disk and the Broad-line Region in Active Galactic Nuclei

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Rong Du, Luis C. Ho, Yuanze Ding, Ruancun Li, | Summary: Models of active galactic nuclei often invoke a close physical association between the broad-line region and the accretion disk. We evaluate this theoretical expectation by investigating the relationship between the inclination angle of the BLR […]

Meissner Effect and Nonreciprocal Charge Transport in Non-Topological 1T-CrTe2/FeTe Heterostructures

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Zi-Jie Yan, Zi-Jie Yan, , , | Summary: Interface-induced superconductivity has recently been achieved by stacking a magnetic topological insulator layer on an antiferromagnetic FeTe layer. However, the mechanism driving this emergent superconductivity remains unclear. Here, we employ molecular beam epitaxy to grow a 1T-CrTe2 layer, a […]

Grassmann tensor renormalization group for the massive Schwinger model with a $θ$ term using staggered fermions

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Shinichiro Takeda| First 5 Authors: Hayato Kanno, Hayato Kanno, , , | Summary:We use the Grassmann tensor renormalization group method to investigate the $N_f=2$ Schwinger model with the staggered fermions in the presence of a $2π$ periodic $θ$ term in a broad range of mass. The method allows us to deal with the […]

A photonic integrated circuit for heterogeneous second harmonic generation

Posted by klaurent UCSB

Kavli Affiliate: John E. Bowers | Summary:Heterogeneous integration of GaAs-based lasers with frequency doubling waveguides presents a clear path to scalable coherent sources in the so-called green gap, yet frequency doubling systems have so far relied on separately manufactured lasers to deliver enough power for second harmonic generation. In this work, we propose a photonic […]

Two Earth-size Planets and an Earth-size Candidate Transiting the Nearby Star HD 101581

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Michelle Kunimoto, Zifan Lin, Sarah Millholland, Alexander Venner, Natalie R. Hinkel | Summary: We report the validation of multiple planets transiting the nearby ($d = 12.8$ pc) K5V dwarf HD 101581 (GJ 435, TOI-6276, TIC 397362481). The system consists of at least two Earth-size planets whose […]
