Data-driven dust inference at mid-to-high Galactic latitudes using probabilistic machine learning

Posted by klaurent Cambridge

Kavli Affiliate: Kaisey Mandel | Summary:We present a method for accurately and precisely inferring photometric dust extinction towards stars at mid-to-high Galactic latitudes using probabilistic machine learning to model the colour-magnitude distribution of zero-extinction stars in these regions. Photometric dust maps rely on a robust method for inferring stellar reddening. At high Galactic latitudes, where […]

X-ray and radio polarimetry of the neutron star low mass X-ray binary GX 13+1

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Herman Marshall | Summary:We report the X-ray and radio polarization study of the neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) GX 13+1 using the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and Very Large Array (VLA). Simultaneous Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) observations show that the source was in parts of the Z state […]

Universal Magnetocaloric Effect near Quantum Critical Point of Magnon Bose-Einstein Condensation

Posted by klaurent UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Gang Su | First 5 Authors: Junsen Xiang, Junsen Xiang, , , | Summary: Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC), a macroscopic quantum phenomenon arising from phase coherence and bosonic statistics, has been realized in quantum magnets. Here, we report the observation of a universal magnetocaloric effect (MCE) near a BEC quantum critical point (QCP) in […]

Cogito, ergo – strings: Supersymmetric ergoregions and their stringy excitations

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Emil Martinec | Summary:Supergravity solutions describing supersymmetric rotating bound states of NS fivebranes, fundamental strings and momentum can sometimes have an ergoregion but no horizon. In such supersymmetric ergoregions, there is an unusual feature that there exist BPS "excitations" that cost negative (or zero) energy as measured from asymptotic infinity. We study the […]

Computational Design and Fabrication of Modular Robots with Untethered Control

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | Summary:Natural organisms utilize distributed actuation through their musculoskeletal systems to adapt their gait for traversing diverse terrains or to morph their bodies for varied tasks. A longstanding challenge in robotics is to emulate this capability of natural organisms, which has motivated the development of numerous soft robotic systems. However, such […]

On the origin of the $Nc^1$ scaling in the confined but chirally symmetric phase at high T

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Youwei Yao | First 5 Authors: L. Ya. Glozman, L. Ya. Glozman, , , | Summary: There is lattice evidence that the QCD matter above the chiral restoration temperature Tch and below the deconfinement temperature Td, called stringy fluid, is characterized by an approximate chiral spin symmetry, which is a symmetry of confinement […]

Experimental demonstration of corrugated nanolaminate films as reflective light sails

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Harry Atwater | Summary:Achieving laser-driven, reflective, relativistic light sails would represent a tremendous breakthrough for humankind, allowing us to advance our understanding of the solar system and deep space far beyond what we know from space probes, telescopes, and objects passing near Earth. Numerous sail film designs have been proposed, but none have […]
