Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | Summary:We study the scalar tidal responses of spinning higher-dimensional black holes, and their effective field theory description. After constructing the effective field theory of a spinning point particle in general dimension, we apply this theory to match the scalar responses of a variety of black hole solutions. In addition to […]

Wilkins| First 5 Authors: Prabal Saxena, Prabal Saxena, , , | Summary:In this paper, we detail recent and current work that is being carried out to fabricate and advance novel SiC UV instrumentation that is aimed at enabling more sensitive measurements across numerous disciplines, with a short discussion of the promise […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mazhar Ali | Summary: Superconductivity has been investigated for over a century, but there are still open questions about what determines the critical current; the maximum current a superconductor can carry before switching to its normal state. For a given superconductor, the zero-field critical current is widely believed to be determined by its […]
