Dominant Role of Coplanar Inflows in Driving Disk Evolution Revealed by Gas-Phase Metallicity Gradients

Posted by klaurent February 18, 2025Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | Summary:Using spatially resolved spectroscopic data from the MaNGA sample, we investigate the parameters influencing the radial gradients of gas-phase metallicity ($nablalog(mathrmO/H)$), to determine whether disk formation is primarily driven by coplanar gas inflow or by the independent evolution of distinct regions within the disk. Our results show that $nabla log(mathrmO/H)$ […]

LanP: Rethinking the Impact of Language Priors in Large Vision-Language Models

Posted by dbos February 17, 2025February 24, 2025Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Zongyu Wu, Yuwei Niu, Hongcheng Gao, Minhua Lin, Zhiwei Zhang | Summary: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have shown impressive performance in various tasks. However, LVLMs suffer from hallucination, which hinders their adoption in the real world. Existing studies emphasized that the strong language priors of LVLMs can […]

Roadmap to fault tolerant quantum computation using topological qubit arrays

Posted by klaurent February 17, 2025Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Rasmussen| First 5 Authors: David Aasen, David Aasen, , , | Summary:We describe a concrete device roadmap towards a fault-tolerant quantum computing architecture based on noise-resilient, topologically protected Majorana-based qubits. Our roadmap encompasses four generations of devices: a single-qubit device that enables a measurement-based qubit benchmarking protocol; a two-qubit device that uses […]

Meta-Statistical Learning: Supervised Learning of Statistical Estimators

Posted by klaurent February 17, 2025February 17, 2026Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Hsiao-Mei (Sherry) Cho| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:Statistical inference, a central tool of science, revolves around the study and the usage of statistical estimators: functions that map finite samples to predictions about unknown distribution parameters. In the frequentist framework, estimators are evaluated based on properties such as bias, variance […]

Using Infrared Dust Echoes to Identify Bright Quasi-periodic Eruption Sources

Posted by klaurent February 17, 2025MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj Pasham | Summary:Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are recurring soft X-ray outbursts from galactic nuclei and represent an intriguing new class of transients. Currently, 10 QPE sources are reported in the literature, and a major challenge lies in identifying more because they are (apparently) intrinsically and exclusively X-ray bright. Here we highlight the unusual […]
