Synthesis and Characterization of Atomically-Sharp Superconductor-Dielectric Interface

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | Summary:Modification of superconductor-dielectric interfaces is known to strongly impact coherence times of superconducting quantum devices. This relationship is thought to arise from differences in the concentration of "two-level system" defects in the disordered dielectrics and superconductor-dielectric interfaces; these defects couple to electromagnetic modes in the device and cause dissipation. Zirconium […]

Eosinophil-epithelial interactions mediate protective intestinal remodeling during food allergy

Posted by dbos Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Mucida | Authors: Patrick W Darcy, Vitoria M Olyntho, Albana Kodra, Zachary Kerner, Maria C.C. Canesso, Sandra Nakandakari-Higa, Gabriel Victora and Daniel Mucida | Summary: Food allergies are associated with progressive gastrointestinal symptoms driven by exacerbated mucosal type-2 immunity. Here, we investigated whether cellular interactions between the gut epithelium and innate immune […]

Dominant in-plane anomalous Hall effect in a monoclinic room-temperature ferromagnet

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Linda Ye| Summary:Ferromagnetic metals are characterized by enhanced dissipationless transverse transport responses via the anomalous Hall effect, offering a route towards magnetic sensing and spintronic readout functionalities. In most ferromagnets, the anomalous Hall current is constrained to lie in the plane perpendicular to the magnetization (or applied magnetic field). Recently, it has been […]

A Multi-Wavelength View of the First Type Ic-BL Supernova with an Einstein Probe X-ray Shock Breakout

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Nathan P. Lourie | Summary:In March 2026, the Einstein Probe (EP) discovered its most nearby (z = 0.0343) Fast X-ray Transient (FXT), EP260321a, the first EP FXT to provide a strong match to expectations for X-ray "shock breakout’" (SBO) emission. Here, we present our multi-wavelength follow-up campaign of EP260321a and its broad-line Type […]

EP260321a/SN 2026gzf: The Faintest Shock Breakout Associated with a Broad-Lined Supernova

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj Pasham | Summary:The explosion of a star is first marked by the shock wave breaking out of the stellar surface, producing a burst of ultraviolet and X-ray radiation. These events are observationally rare, despite likely accompanying the majority of supernovae. Here, we report on our multi-wavelength observing campaign of the closest Einstein […]
