Little Red Dots: Rapidly Growing Black Holes Reddened by Extended Dusty Flows

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Zhengrong Li, Kohei Inayoshi, Kejian Chen, Kohei Ichikawa, Luis C. Ho | Summary: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations have revolutionized extragalactic research, particularly with the discovery of little red dots (LRD), which we propose are dust-reddened broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Their unique v-shape spectral […]

Ferroelectric AlBN Films by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

Kavli Affiliate: Farhan Rana | First 5 Authors: Chandrashekhar Savant, Ved Gund, Kazuki Nomoto, Takuya Maeda, Shubham Jadhav | Summary: We report the properties of molecular beam epitaxy deposited AlBN thin films on a recently developed epitaxial nitride metal electrode Nb2N. While a control AlN thin film exhibits standard capacitive behavior, distinct ferroelectric switching is […]

PKS 2131-021 — Discovery of Strong Coherent Sinusoidal Variations from Radio to Optical Frequencies: Compelling Evidence for a Blazar Supermassive Black Hole Binary

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Kiehlmann, Philipe Vergara De La Parra, Andrew Sullivan, A. Synani, Ioannis Liodakis | Summary: Haystack and Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO) observations recently revealed strong sinusoidal total flux density variations that maintained coherence between 1975 and 2021 in the blazar PKS 2131-021 ($z=1.283)$. This was interpreted […]

Translatome analysis reveals cellular network in DLK-dependent hippocampal glutamatergic neuron degeneration

Kavli Affiliate: Yishi Jin | Authors: Erin M Ritchie, Siming Zhong, Qianyi Pu, Yunbo Li, Binhai Zheng and Yishi Jin | Summary: The conserved MAP3K12/Dual Leucine Zipper Kinase (DLK) plays versatile roles in neuronal development, axon injury and stress responses, and neurodegeneration, depending on cell-type and cellular contexts. Emerging evidence implicates abnormal DLK signaling in […]

Spin-filter tunneling detection of antiferromagnetic resonance with electrically-tunable damping

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel C. Ralph | First 5 Authors: Thow Min Jerald Cham, Daniel G. Chica, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Xavier Roy | Summary: Antiferromagnetic spintronics offers the potential for higher-frequency operations compared to ferromagnetic spintronics and improved insensitivity to magnetic fields. However, previous electrical techniques to detect antiferromagnetic dynamics have required millimeter-scale samples to […]

Rich and diverse molecular gas environments of closely-separated dual quasars viewed by ALMA

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Shenli Tang, John D. Silverman, Zhaoxuan Liu, Manda Banerji, Tomoko Suzuki | Summary: We present a study of the molecular gas in five closely-spaced ($R_{perp}<20$ kpc) dual quasars ($L_{rm bol}gtrsim10^{44}~mathrm{erg~s}^{-1}$) at redshifts $0.4<z<0.8$ with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. The dual quasar phase represents a distinctive […]

Heterogeneous integration of amorphous silicon carbide on thin film lithium niobate

Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Zizheng Li, Naresh Sharma, Bruno Lopez-Rodriguez, Roald van der Kolk, Thomas Scholte | Summary: In the past decade, lithium niobate (LiNbO3 or LN) photonics, thanks to its heat-free and fast electro-optical modulation, second-order non-linearities and low loss, has been extensively investigated. Despite numerous demonstrations of high-performance LN […]
