Kavli Affiliate: Justus M Kebschull | Authors: Julian Cheron, Maggie Lowman, Manjari Anant, Max Siauw and Justus M Kebschull | Summary: The cerebellar nuclei form the main output structures of the cerebellum and are composed of a deeply conserved set of cell types. Two excitatory cell classes, Class-A and -B, are present in each cerebellar […]
Kavli Affiliate: Farhan Rana | Summary:Altermagnets are a recently identified class of collinear antiferromagnets that host large spin-split electronic bands, offering a promising platform for efficient spin-current generation. Among proposed candidates, the metallic oxide RuO2 is predicted to exhibit strong altermagnetic spin splitting; however, whether it sustains robust magnetic order beyond the ultrathin thickness limit […]
Kavli Affiliate: Biao Huang | Summary:Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) has presented great potential in functional imaging, benefiting from its ability to reconstruct deep microvasculature. However, the hemodynamic reconstruction is compromised by sparsity in the ULM data, as a limited number of MB tracks cannot sample the complete speed profile in one vessel. Here, we propose […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Long| Summary: Infrared spectroscopy provides a powerful diagnostic for probing the mineralogical properties of dust grains in the terrestrial planet-forming regions of protoplanetary disks. The Upper Scorpius association offers an excellent laboratory for studying disk evolution because it represents an evolved stage (5-10 Myr) compared with younger star-forming regions such as the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mazhar Ali | Summary: With the advancement of artificial intelligence systems capable of autonomously generating artistic, literary, musical works, and even inventions without direct human intervention, the intellectual property (IP) regime faces unprecedented questions and challenges. The most critical issue concerns the ownership of moral and economic rights in the absence of a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao| Summary:Previous density functional theory (DFT) calculations for random solid solution (RSS) CoCrNi predict negative intrinsic stacking-fault energy (ISFE) at 0 K, contrary to experimental observations of finite stacking-fault widths. Two explanations have been proposed: finite-temperature stabilization of the RSS state, suggested by harmonic approximations showing increasing ISFE with temperature, and local […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao| Summary:Diffusion-based generation is increasingly powering production content pipelines; however, deploying these models at scale remains a significant challenge. Model weights frequently exceed the memory capacity of commodity GPUs, while the encoder, diffusion transformer (DiT), and decoder stages exhibit highly imbalanced computational and memory footprints. A natural remedy is disaggregated serving-running stages […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Long| Summary: We consider the problem of testing mutual independence among the components of a high-dimensional random vector. Building on the rank-based max-sum framework, we introduce fixed finite-$L_q$ power-sum statistics under three general classes of rank-based correlations: simple linear rank statistics, non-degenerate rank-based U-statistics and degenerate rank-based U-statistics. The proposed statistics interpolate […]
Kavli Affiliate: James Analytis| Summary:Understanding if low-energy excitations can remain itinerant in the presence of strong disorder remains a central challenge in frustrated quantum magnets, where disorder is generally expected to localize excitations through Anderson-like mechanisms. Here we report the emergence of charge-neutral itinerant excitations in a van der Waals compound Cr$_3$Se$_2$Br$_5$, a strongly disordered […]
Kavli Affiliate: Patrick Kanold | Authors: Marina Cardoso de Oliveira and Patrick O Kanold | Summary: Listening in complex environments requires the enhancement of relevant sounds and suppression of irrelevant ones. Corticothalamic neurons (CTNs) in auditory cortex layer (L) 6 provide modulatory feedback to thalamic nuclei and to upper cortical layers and are thought to […]
