Roadmap on Advancements of the FHI-aims Software Package

Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott| First 5 Authors: Joseph W. Abbott, Joseph W. Abbott, , , | Summary:Electronic-structure theory is the foundation of the description of materials including multiscale modeling of their properties and functions. Obviously, without sufficient accuracy at the base, reliable predictions are unlikely at any level that follows. The software package FHI-aims […]

Quasar lifetime measurements from extended Ly$α$ nebulae at $zsim 6$

Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: The existence of billion-solar-mass black holes hosted in luminous quasars within the first gigayear of cosmic history poses a challenge to our understanding of supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth. The problem is further exacerbated by the very short quasar lifetimes […]

Phonon Induced Energy Relaxation in Quantum Critical Metals

Kavli Affiliate: Debanjan Chowdhury | Summary:Metals at the brink of electronic quantum phase transitions display high-temperature superconductivity, competing orders, and unconventional charge transport, revealing strong departures from conventional Fermi liquid behavior. Investigation of these fascinating intertwined phenomena has been at the center of research across a variety of correlated materials over the past many decades. […]

Challenges in the detection of gases in exoplanet atmospheres

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | Summary:Claims of detections of gases in exoplanet atmospheres often rely on comparisons between models including and excluding specific chemical species. However, the space of molecular combinations available for model construction is vast and highly degenerate. Only a limited subset of these combinations is typically explored for any given detection. As […]
