Chiral Magnetism and Quantum Anomalous Hall Effect in a Low-energy Kondo Model on the Triangular Lattice

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | Summary:We study an effective low-energy Kondo model on the triangular lattice in which itinerant electrons occupy a valence pocket at $Γ$ and three conduction pockets at the $M$ points of the Brillouin zone. This construction has a Fermi-surface nesting structure that favors triple-$Q$ magnetic order while only assuming the low-energy […]

Crystallographic Challenges in Microscopy of Multidomain Spinel Materials

Kavli Affiliate: Gerbrand Ceder| Summary:Electron microscopy techniques are instrumental in the characterization of energy storage materials, with atomic resolution images providing the detailed structural features that are needed to understand their properties. Atomically resolved electron microscopy techniques have been routinely used to study the microstructure in high performing Mn-based oxide cathodes, which often contain spinel-like […]

Characterizing Earth analogs may require a moderate or high-resolution spectrograph

Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | Summary:A primary goal of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is to detect and measure the abundance of biosignature molecules, such as water (H2O) and oxygen (O2), in the atmosphere of Earth analogs. This is expected to require deep spectroscopic observations lasting hundreds of hours per planet. In this context, it […]

Hierarchical Progressive Pauli Noise Modeling with Residual Compensation for Multi-Qubit Quantum Circuits

Kavli Affiliate: Anqi Zhang| Summary:Quantum Noise Characterization (QNC) is indispensable for benchmarking and mitigating errors in Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices. However, traditional Quantum Process Tomography (QPT) suffers from an exponential parameter explosion $O(4^N)$, severely hindering its scalability. In this paper, we propose a Hierarchical Progressive Optimization (HPO) framework to efficiently extract high-order spatial crosstalk […]

The Changing-look Phenomenon Accompanied by an Accretion Mode Transition in NGC 3786

Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | Summary:To reveal the physical origin of the changing-look (CL) phenomenon in NGC 3786, which transitioned from type 1.8/1.9 to type 1, we present an analysis of long-term spectral monitoring in the optical and near-infrared obtained with Gemini/GMOS-N and Gemini/GNIRS, respectively. Since the onset of the CL phenomenon, NGC 3786 has […]
