Enhanced plasma heating via interaction with high-contrast laser and cone-shaped target

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Tomoyuki Abe| First 5 Authors: Yuga Karaki, Yuga Karaki, , , | Summary:We investigated plasma heating enhancement using a high-intensity, high-contrast laser and a cone-attached target. Fast electron spectra and X-ray emission were measured with an electron spectrometer and a Bragg crystal spectrometer. The results were analyzed using PrismSPECT simulations with a two-component […]

Temporally-segregated dual functions for Gfi1 in the development of retinal direction-selectivity

Posted by dbos Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Alex Kolodkin | Authors: Karina Chaudhari, Luis E Guzman-Clavel and Alex L Kolodkin | Summary: There is great diversity in retinal ganglion cells subtypes in the mouse retina, but little is known about the molecular factors required to generate this subtype diversity. Here, we identify the transcription factor Gfi1 as a conserved driver […]

An improved model for prediction of de novo designed proteins with diverse geometries

Posted by dbos UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Keiser | Authors: Benjamin Orr, Stephanie E Crilly, Deniz Akpinaroglu, Eleanor Zhu, Michael J. Keiser and Tanja Kortemme | Summary: Nature uses structural variations on protein folds to fine-tune the geometries of proteins for diverse functions, yet deep learning-based de novo protein design methods generate highly regular, idealized protein fold geometries that […]

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR6 Power Spectrum Foreground Model and Validation

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Susan Clark | Summary:We discuss the model of astrophysical emission at millimeter wavelengths used to characterize foregrounds in the multi-frequency power spectra of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) Data Release 6 (DR6), expanding on Louis et al. (2025). We detail several tests to validate the capability of the DR6 parametric foreground model to […]

Human-AI Alignment of Multimodal Large Language Models with Speech-Language Pathologists in Parent-Child Interactions

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Hsiao-Mei (Sherry) Cho| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:Joint attention is a critical marker of early social-communicative development, yet remains difficult for caregivers to assess without expert guidance. In this work, we explore how multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can be aligned with the reasoning processes of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) […]

The TESS Ten Thousand Catalog: 10,001 uniformly-vetted and -validated Eclipsing Binary Stars detected in Full-Frame Image data by machine learning and analyzed by citizen scientists

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | Summary:The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has surveyed nearly the entire sky in Full-Frame Image mode with a time resolution of 200 seconds to 30 minutes and a temporal baseline of at least 27 days. In addition to the primary goal of discovering new exoplanets, TESS is exceptionally capable at […]
