Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Challinor | First 5 Authors: Louis Legrand, Louis Legrand, , , | Summary: Noise maps from CMB experiments are generally statistically anisotropic, due to scanning strategies, atmospheric conditions, or instrumental effects. Any mis-modeling of this complex noise can bias the reconstruction of the lensing potential and the measurement of the lensing power […]
Kavli Affiliate: Marcelo Mattar | Authors: Simone D’Ambrogio, Jan Grohn, Nima Khalighinejad, Marcelo Mattar, Laurence T Hunt and Matthew F Rushworth | Summary: It has been suggested that humans and other animals are driven by a fundamental desire to acquire information about opportunities available in their environments. Not only might such a desire explain pathological […]
Kavli Affiliate: Adam S. Charles | Authors: Sai Koukuntla, Tate DeWeese, Alexandra Cheng, Robyn Mildren, Aamna Lawrence, Austin R Graves, Jennifer Colonell, Timothy D Harris and Adam S Charles | Summary: The growing channel count of silicon probes has substantially increased the number of neurons recorded in electrophysiology (ephys) experiments, rendering traditional manual spike sorting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert Cameron | First 5 Authors: Yuanyong Deng, Yuanyong Deng, , , | Summary: The magnetic fields and dynamical processes in the solar polar regions play a crucial role in the solar magnetic cycle and in supplying mass and energy to the fast solar wind, ultimately being vital in controlling solar activities and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | First 5 Authors: Jian-Fa Wang, Jian-Fa Wang, , , | Summary: We present observations of HCN J=4-3 and HCO^+ J=4-3 lines obtained with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope as part of the MALATANG survey, combined with archival HCN J=1-0 and HCO^+ J=1-0 data from the Green Bank Telescope, to study […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: We report the discovery and confirmation of TOI-4465 b, a $1.25^+0.08_-0.07~R_J$, $5.89pm0.26~M_J$ giant planet orbiting a G dwarf star at $dsimeq$ 122 pc. The planet was detected as a single-transit event in data from Sector 40 of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Te Han, Te Han, , , | Summary: The radius of a planet is a fundamental parameter that probes its composition and habitability. Precise radius measurements are typically derived from the fraction of starlight blocked when a planet transits its host star. The wide-field Transiting Exoplanet Survey […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Sinéad M. Griffin, Sinéad M. Griffin, , , | Summary: We perform the first high-throughput search and evaluation of materials that can serve as excellent low-mass dark matter detectors. Using properties of close to one thousand materials from the Materials Project database, we project the sensitivity […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gabriel Silva | Authors: Shahina Akter, Gabriel Vinícius Rolim Silva, Jonas Ivan Nobre Oliveira, Umberto Laino Fulco, Xianyang Xu and Yu Vincent Fu | Summary: The human skin serves as a dynamic ecosystem for beneficial commensal bacteria such as Staphylococcus epidermidis, which play a crucial role in maintaining skin barrier integrity and modulating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Justus M Kebschull | Authors: Hyopil Kim, Huihui Qi, Craig Washington, Xiaoping Liang and Justus M Kebschull | Summary: The barcoded connectomics tool MAPseq enables highly multiplexed projection mapping of individual neurons by translating neuroanatomy into a DNA sequencing problem. Here we present MAPseq2, a user-friendly protocol with 3-4 fold increased barcode detection […]
