A mechanical quantum memory for microwave photons

Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | First 5 Authors: Alkım B. Bozkurt, Omid Golami, Yue Yu, Hao Tian, Mohammad Mirhosseini | Summary: Long-lived mechanical oscillators are actively pursued as critical resources for quantum storage, sensing, and transduction. However, achieving deterministic quantum control while limiting mechanical dissipation remains a persistent challenge. Here, we demonstrate strong coupling between […]

Rarely categorical, always high-dimensional: how the neural code changes along the cortical hierarchy

Kavli Affiliate: Liam Paninski | Authors: Stefano Fusi and Liam Paninski | Summary: The brain is highly structured both at anatomical and functional levels. However, within individual brain areas, neurons often exhibit very diverse and seemingly disorganized responses. A more careful analysis shows that these neurons can sometimes be grouped together into specialized subpopulations (categorical […]

How do uncertainties in galaxy formation physics impact field-level galaxy bias?

Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Mahlet Shiferaw, Nickolas Kokron, Risa H. Wechsler, , | Summary: Our ability to extract cosmological information from galaxy surveys is limited by uncertainties in the galaxy-dark matter halo relationship for a given galaxy population, which are governed by the intricacies of galaxy formation. To quantify these […]
