The diverse physical origins of stars in the dynamically hot bulge: CALIFA vs. IllustrisTNG

Le Zhang, Ling Zhu, Annalisa Pillepich, Min Du, Fangzhou Jiang | Summary: [[{“value”:”We compare the internal stellar structures of central galaxies in the TNG50 and TNG100 simulations and field galaxies in the CALIFA survey. The luminosity fractions of the dynamically cold, warm, and hot components in both TNG50 and TNG100 galaxies exhibit general consistency with […]

Turing-Completeness and Undecidability in Coupled Nonlinear Optical Resonators

Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Gordon Li, Alireza Marandi, , , | Summary: Networks of coupled nonlinear optical resonators have emerged as an important class of systems in ultrafast optical science, enabling richer and more complex nonlinear dynamics compared to their single-resonator or travelling-wave counterparts. In recent years, these coupled nonlinear optical […]

Long-lived Habitable Zones around White Dwarfs undergoing Neon-22 Distillation

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Andrew Vanderburg, Antoine Bédard, Juliette C. Becker, Simon Blouin, | Summary: White dwarf stars have attracted considerable attention in the past 15 years as hosts for potentially habitable planets, but their low luminosity and continuous cooling are major challenges for habitability. Recently, astronomers have found that about […]

LensNet: Enhancing Real-time Microlensing Event Discovery with Recurrent Neural Networks in the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Javier Viaña, Kyu-Ha Hwang, Zoë de Beurs, Jennifer C. Yee, Andrew Vanderburg | Summary: Traditional microlensing event vetting methods require highly trained human experts, and the process is both complex and time-consuming. This reliance on manual inspection often leads to inefficiencies and constrains the ability to scale […]

All-optical computing with beyond 100-GHz clock rates

Kavli Affiliate: Kerry J. Vahala | First 5 Authors: Gordon H. Y. Li, Midya Parto, Jinhao Ge, Qing-Xin Ji, Maodong Gao | Summary: A computer’s clock rate ultimately determines the minimum time between sequential operations or instructions. Despite exponential advances in electronic computer performance owing to Moore’s Law and increasingly parallel system architectures, computer clock […]

An Exceptionally Powerful, Radiatively Driven Ultrafast Outflow in the Rapidly Accreting AGN REJ1034+396

Kavli Affiliate: Steven Allen | First 5 Authors: Chloe Taylor, Daniel Wilkins, Steven Allen, , | Summary: We report the analysis of ~1Ms of XMM-Newton observations of the rapidly accreting active galactic nucleus REJ1034+396. The 0.3-9 keV EPIC-pn spectra are well described by a model consisting of steep continuum emission from the corona accompanied by […]

Distinct roles of cortical layer 5 subtypes in associative learning

Kavli Affiliate: Rui Costa | Authors: Sara Moberg, Michele Garibbo, Camille Mazo, Ariel Gilad, Dietmar Schmitz, Rui Ponte Costa, Matthew E Larkum and Naoya Takahashi | Summary: Adaptive behavior is critically dependent on associative learning, where environmental cues are linked with subsequent positive or negative outcomes. In mammals, primary neocortical sensory areas serve as pivotal […]
