Unconventional superlattice ordering in intercalated transition metal dichalcogenide V$_1/3$NbS$_2$

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 […]

Kilonova constraints for the LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA neutron star merger candidate S250206dm: GW-MMADS observations

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 […]

Ecological Factors Affecting Prosociality in Marmoset Monkeys

Kavli Affiliate: Cory Miller | Authors: Anand R Mysorekar, Anushka Vispute and Cory Miller | Summary: Prosocial behaviors, such as cooperation and food sharing, are critical for maintaining group cohesion in social species, yet the influence of transient physiological states on these behaviors remains poorly understood. This study investigates how short-term ecological factors impact social […]

A cell-based scrambling assay reveals phospholipid headgroup preference of TMEM16F on the plasma membrane

Kavli Affiliate: Lily Jan and Yuh Nung Jan | Authors: Chin Fen Teo, Sami T Tuomivaara, Niek van Hilten, David Crottès, Yuh Nung Jan, Michael Grabe and Lily Y Jan | Summary: The asymmetric resting distribution of the three major phospholipid classes on the mammalian plasma membrane, with phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine mostly on the inner […]

On the string theory of a single NS5-brane

Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Andrea Dei, Emil J. Martinec, , , | Summary: We formulate a worldsheet description of string theory in the background of a single decoupled NS5-brane, which is a particularly simple example of “little string” holography. The worldsheet theory involves a gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model for the group […]
