Evidence of a fraction of LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA events coming from active galactic nuclei

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Liang-Gui Zhu, Xian Chen, , , | Summary: The formation channels of the gravitational-wave (GW) sources detected by LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA (LVK) remain poorly constrained. Active galactic nucleus (AGN) has been proposed as one of the potential hosts but the fraction of GW events originating from AGNs has not […]

Measurement of the time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry in $D^0toπ^0π^0$ decays at Belle II

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: We measure the time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry, $A_CP$, in $D^0topi^0pi^0$ decays reconstructed in $e^+e^-to cbarc$ events collected by Belle II during 2019–2022. The data corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 428$mathrmfb^-1$. The $D^0$ decays are required to originate from the flavor-conserving $D^*+ […]

Baryon Acoustic Oscillations from a Different Angle

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | Summary:This paper presents an alternative way of analysing Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) distance measurements via rotations to define new quantities Dperp and Dpar. These quantities allow simple tests of consistency with the Planck LCDM cosmology. The parameter Dperp is determined with negligible uncertainty from Planck under the assumption of LCDM. […]

2D van der Waals magnets: from fundamental physics to applications

Kavli Affiliate: David Hsieh| Summary:Magnetism has played a central role in the long and rich history of modern condensed matter physics, with many foundational insights originating from theoretical studies of two-dimensional (2D) spin systems. The discovery of 2D van der Waals (vdW) magnets has revolutionized this area by providing real, atomically thin magnetic systems for […]

Prospects for disentangling dark matter with weak lensing

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | Summary:We investigate the degeneracy between the effects of ultra-light axion dark matter and baryonic feedback in suppressing the matter power spectrum. We forecast that galaxy shear data from the Rubin Observatory’s Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) could limit an axion of mass $m = 10^-25,mathrmeV$ to be $lesssim […]

Theory of interaction between untuned modulatory inputs and tuned sensory inputs

Kavli Affiliate: Kenneth Miller | Authors: Tuan Nguyen, Agostina Palmigiano and Kenneth D Miller | Summary: How does the brain integrate sensory inputs with non-feature-tuned signals, such as those arising from behavioral state changes or neuromodulation? Here, we show that the dynamics of disordered E/I networks with structured, feature-dependent connectivity can be well characterized by […]
