Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Kronauer | Authors: Kip D Lacy, Nicolas Châline and Daniel J.C. Kronauer | Summary: While asexual species can often outcompete their sexual counterparts over ecological timescales, their long-term evolutionary success is hindered by a diminished ability to purge deleterious mutations and to adapt to changing environments. However, some asexual species persist for […]

Barch, Barbara B. Warner, Joan L. Luby, Cynthia E. Rogers, Christopher D. Smyser, Chad M. Sylvester and Ashley N. Nielsen | Summary: The basal ganglia and thalamus […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeanne Paz | Authors: Deanna Necula, Yuliya Voskobiynyk, Srujana Poluri and Jeanne T. Paz | Summary: Chronic sleep disruption and cognitive deficits are debilitating long-term consequences of traumatic brain injury (TBI), yet the endogenous mechanisms that drive network-level recovery remain poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that during the chronic phase post-injury, network oscillations […]
Kavli Affiliate: John Serences | Authors: Yixin Yuan, John Serences and Mikio Christian Aoi | Summary: Gradual changes in neural response patterns to the same stimulus over time, termed representational drift, have been widely observed across cortical areas. Drift is typically attributed to intrinsic neural dynamics driven by synaptic plasticity or turnover. Here we test […]
Kavli Affiliate: James Analytis| Summary:We report a high-field thermodynamic study of the hyperhoneycomb Kitaev material $β$-Li$_2$IrO$_3$, using magnetotropic susceptibility to resolve its low-temperature field-angle phase diagram across the principal crystallographic planes in magnetic fields up to $60$ T. Rather than evolving directly from the low-field incommensurate state into a polarized regime, the system exhibits a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | Summary:Chiral quantum emitters interact with light only in one propagation direction, allowing them to be linked into cascaded systems in which photons mediate ordered, long-range interactions. Such systems are predicted to host novel regimes of many-body physics of light and matter. Exploring these regimes requires arrays of identical quantum emitters […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | Summary:Blind quantum computing (BQC) allows a client to delegate quantum computations to a remote server without revealing the input, computation, or output. In addition to being blind, the client can sometimes also verify that the server has performed their instructions correctly, a property known as verifiability. A key part of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Austin Minnich | Summary:The InP high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) is indispensable for low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) in radio astronomy and quantum computing. The composition of the $mathrmIn_xGa_1-xAs$ channel in InP HEMT is known to influence the LNA noise performance. However, the various physical mechanisms responsible for noise generation are not fully characterized and understood. Here, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alex Kolodkin | Authors: Natalie R Hamilton, Victoria N Neckles, Timour Al-Khindi, Nitya Donthi, Shun Mizutori, Renata Fu, James K Kiraly, Bea C Winship, Alex L Kolodkin and Karina Chaudhari | Summary: The optokinetic reflex (OKR) is an evolutionarily conserved reflexive behavior that ensures image stabilization on the retina during global motion. It […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mazhar Ali | Summary: The superconducting diode effect (SDE), characterized by unequal critical supercurrents in opposite current directions, enables supercurrent rectification. We propose a magnetic-field-free pseudo-superconducting-diode effect in ferroelectric Josephson junctions with broken inversion symmetry. Using a coupled dynamical model that combines a polarization-dependent RCSJ description with Landau-Khalatnikov-Tani ferroelectric dynamics, we show that […]
