Physical Predictions in Closed Quantum Gravity

Kavli Affiliate: Yasunori Nomura | Summary:Recent developments in gravitational path integrals indicate that the nonperturbative physical Hilbert space of a closed universe is one-dimensional within each superselection sector. This raises a basic puzzle: how can a unique quantum-gravity state give rise to semiclassical physics, measurement outcomes, and classical probabilities? In this paper, we develop a […]

TIC-65910228 b / NGTS-38 b, a 180 day transiting warm super-Jupiter

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | Summary:We present the discovery of TIC-65910228 b / NGTS-38 b, a giant exoplanet with a radius of $1.081pm0.047$ R$_textJ$ and a mass of $4.78_-0.37^+0.39$ M$_textJ$ on a long-period ($180.52797pm0.00036$ day), moderately eccentric ($e=0.3086pm0.010$) orbit transiting a bright (V=$10.230pm0.020$ mag) metal rich ([Fe/H]=$0.33pm0.09$, ‘dex’) F6V-F7V type host star. The planet was […]

Dependence of the Mn sticking coefficient on Ga-rich, N-rich, and Ga/N-flux-free conditions in GaN grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy

Kavli Affiliate: Grace Xing | Summary:This brief report examines the influence of Ga/N flux conditions on Mn incorporation in GaN. Mn-doped GaN layers were grown at 680$^circ$C by molecular beam epitaxy on a Ga-polar GaN(0001) template substrate under Ga-rich, N-rich, and no-flux conditions (i.e., Mn $δ$ doping). Mn incorporation was highest under N-rich condition, lowest […]

What and where manifolds emerge and align with perception in deep neural network models of sound localization

Kavli Affiliate: Xiaoqin Wang | Authors: Chenggang Chen, Zhiyu Yang and Xiaoqin Wang | Summary: Whether the auditory cortex has parallel pathways for sound identification (“what”) and localization (“where”), and whether it contains a map of auditory space, is debated. Here, we examined the low-dimensional structure (manifold) of “what” and “where” representations in deep neural […]

Shared somatosensory–motor neural population dynamics track motor recovery after stroke

Kavli Affiliate: Karunesh Ganguly | Authors: Ian S Heimbuch, Preeya Khanna, Lisa Novik, Robert J Morecraft and Karunesh Ganguly | Summary: Although somatosensation is known to be important for precise hand control, how coordinated activity across sensory and motor cortical areas supports hand movements and object interactions is unclear. We simultaneously recorded neural activity from […]

Consistent inclusion of triple substitutions within a coupled cluster based static quantum embedding theory

Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | Summary:We incorporate a solver for the fragment problem with accuracy beyond coupled cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) into the previously proposed static embedding framework, MPCC. To this end, we employ a CCSDT solver for the fragment subsystem. For the environment subsystem, we construct a perturbative estimate of the triples amplitudes, […]
