Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | Summary:Understanding how superconductivity emerges and collapses in correlated electron systems remains a central challenge in condensed matter physics. As a recently discovered member of the high temperature superconductor family, bilayer nickelates provide a new opportunity for examining this problem. Their pronounced sensitivity to oxygen stoichiometry, while posing challenges for stabilizing […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | Summary:We present a shifted-geodesic framework for computing gravitational-wave fluxes from spinning test bodies moving on bound orbits of Kerr black holes. The method provides a simple and efficient means of evaluating energy and angular momentum fluxes incorporating the leading effect of the smaller body’s spin. Because post-adiabatic corrections, including […]
Kavli Affiliate: Linda Ye| Summary:In multiferroics, new physical responses and functionalities emerge when symmetry-distinct order parameters couple. This conventionally occurs when lattice and magnetic degrees of freedom order independently in a material. Here, we report an all-magnetic analogue of multiferroic behavior in the antiferromagnet Co$_1/3$TaS$_2$, where topological scalar spin chirality and nematicity coexist on the […]
Kavli Affiliate: John Silverman | Summary:The origin of the mass scaling relation between supermassive black holes (SMBHs, $M_rm BH$) and galaxies ($M_*$) remains a key open question. Rather than invoking AGN feedback, a non-causal mechanism has been proposed in which multiple mergers average out the $M_rm BH/M_*$ ratio, thus decreasing its scatter ($σ$) and forming […]

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Minor | Authors: Sandra Zakrzewska, Zhou Chen, Elizabeth Park, Roshni G Bhaskar, T. Aaron Bedell, J Du Bois and Daniel L Minor, Jr. | Summary: Saxitoxin (STX) and its congeners (paralytic shellfish toxins, PSTs) are among the most potent small-molecule toxins. PSTs are produced by harmful algal blooms and derive toxicity by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Martin Lindquist and Ciprian Crainiceanu | Authors: Ahmad B. Taha, Seong Yeol An, Su-Jeong Kim, Rowhan Daly, Jeremiah Y. Cohen and Solange P. Brown | Summary: A broad range of neurodegenerative disorders are associated with altered functional connectivity (FC) patterns and atrophy of gray matter volume (GMV). Similarly, there are links between physical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Solange Brown and Jeremiah Cohen | Authors: Ahmad B. Taha, Seong Yeol An, Su-Jeong Kim, Rowhan Daly, Jeremiah Y. Cohen and Solange P. Brown | Summary: Flexible decision-making relies on interactions between frontal cortex and subcortical structures. The claustrum, a subcortical nucleus highly interconnected with frontal cortex, influences cortical activity and has been […]
