Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Lei Chen, Lei Chen, , , | Summary: A common wisdom about quantum many-body systems is that emergent phases typically fall into either the Landau-Ginzburg paradigm or topological classifications. Experimentally realizing the intertwined emergence of spontaneous symmetry breaking and topological order remains challenging. Here, we present an […]
Kavli Affiliate: Vincent Ferrera | Authors: Fabian A Munoz Silva, Greg Jensen, Maxwell Shinn, Yelda Alkan, John Murray, Herbert Terrace and Vincent P Ferrera | Summary: Transitive inference (TI) is a cognitive process in which decisions are guided by internal representations of abstract relationships. While the mechanisms underlying transitive learning have been well studied, the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | First 5 Authors: Hiroto Yanagisawa, Hiroto Yanagisawa, , , | Summary: We present a new constraint on the primordial helium abundance, $Y_mathrmP$, based on Subaru observations. A major source of uncertainty in previous $Y_mathrmP$ determinations is the lack of extremely metal-poor galaxies (EMPGs; $0.01-0.1Z_odot$), which have metallicities a few to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeanne Paz | Authors: Jeremy B Ford, Olive N Tambou, Jarret AP Weinrich, Debleena Chatterjee, Allan Basbaum and Jeanne T. Paz | Summary: Central post-stroke pain (CPSP) is a highly distressing condition that develops in 50% of people who suffer a thalamic stroke, and is typically unresponsive to current clinical treatments. Hypoxic damage […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Chen Gong, Bo Liang, Wei Gao, Chenren Xu, | Summary: Generative models have gained significant attention for their ability to produce realistic synthetic data that supplements the quantity of real-world datasets. While recent studies show performance improvements in wireless sensing tasks by incorporating all synthetic data into […]
Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Toshiya Namikawa, Toshiya Namikawa, , , | Summary: The recent measurement of baryonic acoustic oscillations (BAO) by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) reveals a mild tension with observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) within the standard $Lambda$CDM cosmological model. This discrepancy leads to a preference […]
Kavli Affiliate: Vikaas Sohal | Authors: Xiyu Zhu, Lara L. Hagopian, Kira E. Wallquist and Vikaas Singh Sohal | Summary: While glutamatergic synaptic plasticity is believed to be a fundamental mechanism mediating learning, the behavioral significance of plasticity at cortical GABAergic synapses remains less well understood. Furthermore, despite recent discoveries of long-range projections from neocortical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Cecilia Lunardini, Cecilia Lunardini, , , | Summary: We present a new, state-of-the-art computation of the Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background (DSNB), where we use neutrino spectra from multi-dimensional, multi-second core collapse supernova simulations – including both neutron-star and black-hole forming collapses – and binary evolution effects from […]
Kavli Affiliate: David A. Muller | First 5 Authors: Shannon S. Fender, Shannon S. Fender, , , | Summary: The interplay between symmetry and topology in magnetic materials makes it possible to engineer exotic phases and technologically useful properties. A key requirement for these pursuits is achieving control over local crystallographic and magnetic structure, usually […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Lei Hu, Tomás Cabrera, Antonella Palmese, James Freeburn, Mattia Bulla | Summary: Gravitational wave (GW) neutron star mergers with an associated electromagnetic counterpart constitute powerful probes of binary evolution, the production sites of heavy elements, general relativity, and the expansion of the universe. Only a handful […]
