Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | Summary:A Kinetic Inductance Phonon-Mediated Detector is a calorimeter that uses kinetic inductance detectors to read out phonon signals from the device substrate. We have established a consortium comprising university and national lab groups dedicated to advancing the state of the art in these detectors, with the ultimate goal of designing […]

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Haley Appel, Rogger Carmen-Orozco, Clayton Santiago, Thanh Hoang and Seth Blackshaw | Summary: The RNA-binding protein Ptbp1 has been proposed as a master regulator of neuronal fate, repressing neurogenesis through its effects on alternative splicing and miRNA maturation. While prior studies using RNA interference suggested that Ptbp1 loss promotes […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | Summary:Quantum metrology seeks to leverage the richness of quantum systems for making better measurements than are possible using only classical resources in order to gain a “quantum advantage”. Quantum metrology schemes must also be resilient against noise to be useful in practice. Simultaneously achieving quantum advantage and noise resilience requires […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | Summary:Continuous-wave (CW) interferometry has stood at the frontier of precision measurement science since its inception, where it was used to search for the luminiferous ether, to the present day, where it forms the basis of interferometric gravitational-wave detection. Quantum theory predicts that this frontier can be expanded more rapidly by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Yasmeen Asali, Yasmeen Asali, , , | Summary: We investigate how Milky Way-like environments influence the sizes and structural properties of low-mass galaxies by comparing satellites of Milky Way analogs from the Satellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA) Survey with two control samples: an environmentally agnostic population […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dimitri Mawet| Summary:Stellar multiplicity plays a crucial role in shaping planet formation and dynamical evolution. We present a survey of 54 TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs) within 300 pc that exhibit significant Hipparcos-Gaia astrometric accelerations. We identified 35 TOIs with stellar companions at projected separations between $0.1^primeprime$ to $2^primeprime$ (or $10-200$ AU). We […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | Summary:Today’s most detailed characterization of exoplanet atmospheres is accessible via transit spectroscopy (TS). Detecting transiting exoplanets only yields their size, and it is thus standard to measure a planet’s mass before moving towards their atmospheric characterization, or even the publication of their discovery. This framework, however, can act as a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Jan Held, Jan Held, , , | Summary: Reconstructing 3D scenes and synthesizing novel views has seen rapid progress in recent years. Neural Radiance Fields demonstrated that continuous volumetric radiance fields can achieve high-quality image synthesis, but their long training and rendering times limit practicality. 3D Gaussian […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Feng Wang, Feng Wang, , , | Summary: jina-reranker-v3 is a 0.6B-parameter multilingual listwise reranker that introduces a novel "last but not late" interaction. Unlike late interaction models like ColBERT that encode documents separately before multi-vector matching, our approach applies causal attention between the query and all […]
