Kavli Affiliate: Devanand Manoli | Authors: Alexis M Black, Natsumi Komatsu, Jiaxuan Zhao, Scarlet R Taskey, Nicole S Serrano, Ruchira Sharma, Devanand S. Manoli, Markita P Landry and Annaliese Beery | Summary: Friendships, or selective peer relationships, are a vital component of healthy social functioning in humans, while deficits in these relationships are associated with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kwabena Bediako| Summary:Electron transfer (ET) reactions underpin energy conversion and chemical transformations in both biological and abiological systems. The efficiency of any ET process relies on achieving a desired ET rate within an optimal driving force range. Marcus theory provides a microscopic framework for understanding the activation free energy, and thus the rate, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Anjiang Wei, Anjiang Wei, , , | Summary: Superoptimization is the task of transforming a program into a faster one while preserving its input-output behavior. In this work, we investigate whether large language models (LLMs) can serve as superoptimizers, generating assembly programs that outperform code already optimized […]
Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | Summary:We demonstrate that the statistical fluctuations in resonant radiation detectors operating in homodyne and heterodyne modes offers additional, complementary information to that obtained from their direct operation as click detectors. We use this to refine tests of the coherent state hypothesis of interest in connection with gravitational wave fields. | […]
Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | Summary:Gravitational radiation from known astrophysical sources is conventionally treated classically. This treatment corresponds, implicitly, to the hypothesis that a particular class of quantum-mechanical states — the so-called coherent states — adequately describe the gravitational radiation field. We propose practicable, quantitative tests of that hypothesis using resonant bar detectors monitored in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | Summary:We classify “truly confining” (t-confining) supersymmetric gauge theories, in which no center charges can be screened, and Wilson loops in the fundamental representation are therefore expected to exhibit an area law. In all cases, we identify the condensation of certain “magnetic” operators. Many of them have more than three branches, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert Simcoe | Summary:JWST has revealed a stunning population of bright galaxies at surprisingly early epochs, $z>10$, where few such sources were expected. Here we present the most distant example of this class yet — MoM-z14, a luminous ($M_rmUV=-20.2$) source in the COSMOS field at $z_rmspec=14.44^+0.02_-0.02$ that expands the observational frontier to a […]

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | Summary:Hyperspectral image (HSI) analysis plays a critical role in remote sensing, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. However, traditional methods often struggle to handle the high dimensionality, spectral redundancy, and noise inherent in HSI data, limiting their accuracy and scalability. Recently, diffusion models including denoising diffusion probabilistic models and other generative frameworks […]
