Experimental realization of the bucket-brigade quantum random access memory

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Fanhao Shen, Yujie Ji, Debin Xiang, Yanzhe Wang, Ke Wang | Summary: Quantum random access memory (QRAM) enables efficient classical data access for quantum computers — a prerequisite for many quantum algorithms to achieve quantum speedup. Despite various proposals, the experimental realization of QRAM remains largely unexplored. […]

Extracting Multimodal Learngene in CLIP: Unveiling the Multimodal Generalizable Knowledge

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Ruiming Chen, Junming Yang, Shiyu Xia, Xu Yang, Jing Wang | Summary: CLIP (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training) has attracted widespread attention for its multimodal generalizable knowledge, which is significant for downstream tasks. However, the computational overhead of a large number of parameters and large-scale pre-training poses challenges of […]

XHEMTs on Ultrawide Bandgap Single-Crystal AlN Substrates

Kavli Affiliate: Grace Xing | First 5 Authors: Eungkyun Kim, Eungkyun Kim, , , | Summary: AlN has the largest bandgap in the wurtzite III-nitride semiconductor family, making it an ideal barrier for a thin GaN channel to achieve strong carrier confinement in field-effect transistors, analogous to silicon-on-insulator technology. Unlike SiO$_2$/Si/SiO$_2$, AlN/GaN/AlN can be grown […]

Disentangling Metallicity Effects in Hot Jupiter Occurrence Across Galactic Birth Radius and Phase-Space Density

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Rayna Rampalli, Melissa K. Ness, Elisabeth R. Newton, Andrew Vanderburg, Tobias Buck | Summary: We explore how the correlation between host star metallicity and giant planets shapes hot Jupiter occurrence as a function of Galactic birth radius (rbirth) and phase-space density in the Milky Way disk. Using […]

A genetic driver of epileptic encephalopathy impairs gating of synaptic glycolysis

Kavli Affiliate: Timothy A. Ryan | Authors: Zhanat Koshenov, Alexandros C. Kokotos, Lorena Benedetti, Jennifer Lippincott Schwartz and Timothy A. Ryan | Summary: The brain is a disproportionately large consumer of fuel, estimated to expend ∼20% of the whole-body energy budget, and therefore it is critical to adequately control brain fuel expenditures while satisfying its […]

A Bimodal Metallicity Distribution Function in the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Alice M. Luna, Alice M. Luna, , , | Summary: Star formation in ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs, $M_* <10^5M_odot$) is suppressed by reionization, but may not be completely quenched. The metallicity distribution function (MDF) of stars in ultra-faint dwarf galaxies could show these signatures of reionization. However, […]

Cosmic-ray and Interstellar Gas Properties in the Solar Neighborhood Revealed by Diffuse Gamma Rays

Kavli Affiliate: Igor V. Moskalenko | First 5 Authors: Tsunefumi Mizuno, Katsuhiro Hayashi, Hinako Ochi, Igor V. Moskalenko, Elena Orlando | Summary: To investigate the interstellar medium (ISM) and Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) in the solar neighborhood, we analyzed ${gamma}$-ray data by Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) for five nearby molecular cloud regions. Our data […]
