Single-cell long-read sequencing of the experience-induced transcriptome

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Huganir | Authors: Sheridan Cavalier, Paul W Hook, Richard L. Huganir and Winston Timp | Summary: Neural activity drives transcriptional events that are critical for learning. Activity-induced transcript isoform expression and alternative splicing are cell-type specific events typically obscured by sequencing approaches that restrict read length. We combined single-cell transcriptomics with Nanopore […]

Terahertz electrodynamics in a zero-field Wigner crystal

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Su-Di Chen, Su-Di Chen, , , | Summary: In clean two-dimensional (2D) systems, electrons are expected to self-organize into a regular lattice, a Wigner crystal, when their mutual Coulomb repulsion overwhelms kinetic energy. Understanding the Wigner crystal at zero magnetic field is a long-sought goal in physics, […]

The Photochemical Plausibility of Warm Exo-Titans Orbiting M-Dwarf Stars

Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | Summary:The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has begun to spectrally characterize small exoplanets orbiting M-dwarf stars, but interpretation of these spectra is ambiguous, with stellar, instrumental, or atmospheric origins possible for apparent spectral features. Consequently, interpretation of JWST small exoplanet spectra follows a Bayesian approach, with less theoretically plausible interpretations […]

CMB component-separated power spectrum estimation by Spectral Internal Linear Combination (SpILC)

Kavli Affiliate: Blake Sherwin | Summary:Component separation methods mitigate the cross-contamination between different extragalactic and galactic contributions to cosmic microwave background (CMB) data. This is often done by linearly combining CMB maps from different frequency channels using internal linear combination (ILC) methods. We demonstrate that deriving power spectrum estimators directly by linearly combining auto- and […]

Scalable Training for Vector-Quantized Networks with 100% Codebook Utilization

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Yifan Chang, Yifan Chang, , , | Summary: Vector quantization (VQ) is a key component in discrete tokenizers for image generation, but its training is often unstable due to straight-through estimation bias, one-step-behind updates, and sparse codebook gradients, which lead to suboptimal reconstruction performance and low codebook […]

Density-Functional Tight Binding Meets Maxwell: Unraveling the Mysteries of (Strong) Light-Matter Coupling Efficiently

Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | Summary:Controlling chemical and material properties through strong light-matter coupling in optical cavities has gained considerable attention over the past decade. However, the underlying mechanisms remain insufficiently understood, and a significant gap persists between experimental observations and theoretical descriptions. This challenge arises from the intrinsically multi-scale nature of the problem, where […]
