Kavli Affiliate: Wayne Hu | First 5 Authors: Rayne Liu, Wayne Hu, Daniel Grin, , | Summary: Ultralight axions (ULAs) with masses $10^{-33} lesssim m/{rm eV} lesssim 10^{-12}$ are well motivated in string-inspired models and can be part or all of the dark energy or the dark matter in this range. Since the ULA field […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: P. M. Chichura, A. Rahlin, A. J. Anderson, B. Ansarinejad, M. Archipley | Summary: We present improvements to the pointing accuracy of the South Pole Telescope (SPT) using machine learning. The ability of the SPT to point accurately at the sky is limited by its structural imperfections, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Junjia Liu, Zhuo Li, Minghao Yu, Zhipeng Dong, Sylvain Calinon | Summary: Humanoid robots are envisioned as embodied intelligent agents capable of performing a wide range of human-level loco-manipulation tasks, particularly in scenarios requiring strenuous and repetitive labor. However, learning these skills is challenging due to the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Martin Haehnelt | First 5 Authors: Adam Abdalla, Mahiro Abe, Sven Abend, Mouine Abidi, Monika Aidelsburger | Summary: This summary of the second Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry (TVLBAI) Workshop provides a comprehensive overview of our meeting held in London in April 2024, building on the initial discussions during the inaugural workshop held at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Alessandro Trinca, Rosa Valiante, Raffaella Schneider, Ignas Juodžbalis, Roberto Maiolino | Summary: Early JWST observations are providing growing evidence for a ubiquitous population of accreting supermassive black holes (BHs) at high redshift, many of which appear overmassive compared to the empirically-derived local scaling relation between black hole […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Takumi S. Tanaka, John D. Silverman, Kazuhiro Shimasaku, Junya Arita, Hollis B. Akins | Summary: “Little Red Dots” (LRDs) are an abundant high-redshift population newly discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). They are characterized by a red color in the rest-frame optical band, compact morphology, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Wei Zhang, Mingjian Tang, Haoxuan Mu, Xingzi Yang, Xiaowei Zeng | Summary: In many biological materials such as nacre and bone, the material structure consists of hard grains and soft interfaces, with the interfaces playing a significant role in the material’s mechanical behavior. This type of structures […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Challinor | First 5 Authors: Erik Rosenberg, Steven Gratton, Anthony Challinor, , | Summary: Motivated by observed discrepancies between ACT DR4 and Planck 2018 cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy power spectra, particularly in the cross-correlation of temperature and E-mode polarization, we investigate challenges that may be encountered in the comparison of satellite […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Youssef A. Ait Alama, Sampada Sakpal, Ke Wang, Razvan Bunescu, Avinash Karanth | Summary: Hardware failures are a growing challenge for machine learning accelerators, many of which are based on systolic arrays. When a permanent hardware failure occurs in a systolic array, existing solutions include localizing and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Gautam Venugopalan, Clarke A. Hardy, Kenneth Kohn, Yuqi Zhu, Charles P. Blakemore | Summary: The search for new gravity-like interactions at the sub-millimeter scale is a compelling area of research, with important implications for the understanding of classical gravity and its connections with quantum physics. We report […]
