Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Juan Daniel Torres Luna, Juan Daniel Torres Luna, , , | Summary: To observe Majorana bound states, and especially to use them as a qubit, requires careful optimization of competing quality metrics. We systematically compare Majorana quality in proximitized semiconductor nanowires and quantum dot chains. Using […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Fengze Xie, Fengze Xie, , , | Summary: Fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offer endurance and efficiency but lack low-speed agility due to highly coupled dynamics. We present an end-to-end sensing-to-control pipeline that combines bio-inspired hardware, physics-informed dynamics learning, and convex control allocation. Measuring airflow on a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Zhen Cao, Zhen Cao, , , | Summary: Ultra-high-energy (UHE), exceeding 100 TeV (10^12 electronvolts), gamma-rays manifests extreme particle acceleration in astrophysical sources. Recent observations by gamma-ray telescopes, particularly by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO), have revealed a few tens of UHE sources, indicating […]
