Kavli Affiliate: Peter Graham | Summary:Particles at the TeV scale with lifetimes of a year or longer could have been abundantly produced at the LHC yet escaped detection because of backgrounds, and could still be trapped within detector materials. With gluinos in split-supersymmetry as a working example, we show that these trapped particles can be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Keri Martinowich | Authors: Jason J Rehg, Daniel E Olivares, Ye Li, Keri Martinowich, Greg V Carr and Jorge Miranda-Barrientos | Summary: control to allocate cognitive resources toward behaviorally relevant stimuli based on learned context and expectations. mPFC neurons project to multiple cortical and subcortical regions, including the locus coeruleus (LC)—the brain’s primary […]
Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | Summary:Earth-sized planets transiting M dwarf stars present one of the best opportunities with current facilities for studying the atmospheric and bulk compositions of terrestrial worlds. Here, we statistically validate five new transiting Earth and super-Earth sized planets orbiting M dwarf stars using a combination of light curves from the Transiting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi Masui | Summary:Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a $sim$ millisecond-long transient phenomenon that propagate across extragalactic distances and are effectively a point source. Radio wave propagation through inhomogeneous distributions of plasma can act as a lens, generating multiple images of the emitted electric field. A lens can produce images of a point […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sander Otte | Summary:The nuclear spin is a prime candidate for quantum information applications due to its weak coupling to the environment and inherently long coherence times. However, this weak coupling also challenges the addressability of the nuclear spin. Here we demonstrate nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) on a single on-surface atom using a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rainer Spurzem | Summary:Context. Comets, asteroids, planetesimals, free-floating planets and brown dwarfs, are continuously injected into the intra-cluster environment after expulsion from their host planetary systems or binary system. The dynamics of large populations of such free-floating comets (ffcs) in a star cluster environment is not yet fully understood. Aims. We investigate the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hsiao-Mei (Sherry) Cho| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:Loss of decisional capacity, coupled with the increasing absence of reliable human proxies, raises urgent questions about how individuals’ values can be represented in Advance Care Planning (ACP). To probe this fraught design space of high-risk, high-subjectivity decision support, we built an […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shawn Fergusons | Authors: Tuyana Malankhanova, Zhiyong Liu, Samuel Strader, Weiping Wang, Ki Woon Sung, Zhong Li, Shawn M Ferguson and Andrew B West | Summary: LRRK2 is implicated in lysosomal functions, but the physiological upstream cues that engage endogenous LRRK2 activity are incompletely defined. Here we show that lysosomal swelling serves as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gaby Maimon | Authors: Jazz L Weisman, Thomas L Mohren, James D Ryu, Maya Z Wyse, Eduardo Dias-Ferreira and Gaby Maimon | Summary: Past work has demonstrated that Drosophila can keep to a consistent navigational bearing for minutes to hours. Here, we ask whether they can do so over days to weeks. First, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shai Shaham | Authors: Olya Yarychkivska, Simin Liu, Lauren Bayer Horowitz, Shiloh Newland, Peipei Wu, Saiya Mittal, Shogo Tamura, Tetiana Novosolova, David Faulkner Ritter, Yun Lu, Sevinc Ercan, Christopher Hammell and Shai Shaham | Summary: Linker cell-type death (LCD) is a morphologically conserved non-apoptotic cell-death process with features resembling polyglutamine-dependent neurodegeneration. In C. […]
