Kavli Affiliate: Hirosi Ooguri | First 5 Authors: Hirosi Ooguri, Yifan Wang, , , | Summary: For any unitary conformal field theory in two dimensions with the central charge $c$, we prove that, if there is a nontrivial primary operator whose conformal dimension $Delta$ vanishes in some limit on the conformal manifold, the Zamolodchikov distance […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: María Camarasa-Gómez, Stephen E. Gant, Guy Ohad, Jeffrey B. Neaton, Ashwin Ramasubramanian | Summary: Accurate prediction of electronic and optical excitations in van der Waals (vdW) materials is a long-standing challenge for density functional theory. The recently proposed Wannier-localized optimally-tuned screened range-separated hybrid (WOT-SRSH) functional has […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Roberto Maiolino, Guido Risaliti, Matilde Signorini, Bartolomeo Trefoloni, Ignas Juodzbalis | Summary: We investigate the X-ray properties of a large sample of 71 broad line and narrow line AGN at 2<z<11 discovered by JWST in the GOODS fields, which have the deepest Chandra observations ever obtained. Despite […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kevin Yackle | Authors: Alastair MacDonald and Kevin Yacklei | Summary: Intonation in speech is the control of vocal pitch to layer expressive meaning to communication, like increasing pitch to indicate a question. Also, stereotyped patterns of pitch are used to create distinct “words”, like the ten sounds in the murine lexicon. A […]
Kavli Affiliate: Attila Losonczy | Authors: Stephanie A Herrlinger, Bovey Rao, Margaret E Conde Paredes, Anna L Tuttman, Haroon Arain, Erdem Varol, Joseph A Gogos and Attila Losonczy | Summary: Individuals with the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, one of the strongest genetic risk factors for schizophrenia, demonstrate cognitive impairments such as episodic memory dysfunction. Place cell […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Anirban Das, Noah Kurinsky, Rebecca K. Leane, , | Summary: We recently pointed out that power measurements of single quasiparticle devices can be used to detect dark matter. These devices have the lowest known energy thresholds, far surpassing standard direct detection experiments, requiring energy deposition above only […]

Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | First 5 Authors: Mason Ng, Paul S. Ray, Andrea Sanna, Tod E. Strohmayer, Alessandro Papitto | Summary: We present the discovery, with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), that SRGA J144459.2-604207 is a 447.9 Hz accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar (AMXP), which underwent a four-week long outburst starting on 2024 […]

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Ziming Liu, Yixuan Wang, Sachin Vaidya, Fabian Ruehle, James Halverson | Summary: Inspired by the Kolmogorov-Arnold representation theorem, we propose Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) as promising alternatives to Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLPs). While MLPs have fixed activation functions on nodes ("neurons"), KANs have learnable activation functions on edges ("weights"). […]
