Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Rasmussen| First 5 Authors: M. Benedikt, M. Benedikt, , , | Summary:Volume 1 of the FCC Feasibility Report presents an overview of the physics case, experimental programme, and detector concepts for the Future Circular Collider (FCC). This volume outlines how FCC would address some of the most profound open questions in particle […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Rasmussen| First 5 Authors: M. Benedikt, M. Benedikt, , , | Summary:Volume 3 of the FCC Feasibility Report presents studies related to civil engineering, the development of a project implementation scenario, and environmental and sustainability aspects. The report details the iterative improvements made to the civil engineering concepts since 2018, taking into […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | Summary:Next-generation gravitational-wave observatories will reach farther into the universe than currently possible, revealing black-hole mergers from early stellar binary systems such as Population III stars, whose properties are currently poorly constrained. We develop a method to infer the properties of their progenitor populations from gravitational-wave catalogs. Using Bayesian deep learning, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | Summary:Scalable oversight, the process by which weaker AI systems supervise stronger ones, has been proposed as a key strategy to control future superintelligent systems. However, it is still unclear how scalable oversight itself scales. To address this gap, we propose a framework that quantifies the probability of successful oversight as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | Summary:While mounting observational evidence suggests that intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) may be important in shaping the properties of dwarf galaxies both at high redshifts and in the local Universe, our theoretical understanding of how these IMBHs grow is largely incomplete. To address this, we perform high-resolution simulations of an […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib| Summary:We present a novel architecture for accelerating PIV calculations. An optical flow hardware accelerator does the brunt of the work, with cross-correlation only providing quick corrections. The result is RapidPIV: a free-to-download software program for real-time particle image velocimetry (PIV) for Linux and Windows computers with an Nvidia Turing-gen (or newer) […]
