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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | Summary:Young planets (<1 Gyr) provide opportunities to directly probe planet formation and evolution processes in action. However, due to heightened stellar activity, there is a lack of known transiting planets in adolescence (~100-500 Myr). Here we present the validation of TIC 150070085 b, a 3.6 R_E planet on a 10.47 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | Summary:Evaporating black holes can leave distinct imprints on gravitational wave (GW) backgrounds. We show that black hole populations with finite width mass distributions exhibit a universal late time evolution governed by the evaporation dynamics rather than the details of the initial mass distribution, leading to a characteristic power law suppression […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | Summary:Here we investigate stripes of alternating structural phases spontaneously forming in epitaxially strained $Ca_2RuO_4$ thin films below the metal-insulator transition. Using large-volume X-ray reciprocal-space mapping, we show that satellite-pattern intensities across 24 symmetry-inequivalent Bragg reflections collapse onto a single parameter-free curve. The collapse identifies a coherent martensitic laminate of few-nm-wide […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Baldwin | Summary: We compare phase-only control with phase-and-amplitude control when designing shaped pulses using the GRAPE algorithm, and explain why phase-only control has significant advantages. Trotterisation can be used to simulate amplitude modulation with phase modulation, indicating that the two approaches are fundamentally equivalent. Pulses designed by either method can be […]

Kavli Affiliate: Todor Milanov | Summary:In 2003, Givental and the author constructed Hirota quadratic (or bilinear) equations for simple singularities — a result later utilized by Fan, Jarvis, and Ruan to establish the generalized Witten conjecture. Whether this construction extends to broader classes of singularities has since remained an open question. In this paper, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Todor Milanov | Summary:We prove that the Gromov–Witten invariants of the elliptic orbifold lines $mathbfP^1_3,3,3$, $mathbfP^1_2,4,4$, and $mathbfP^1_2,3,6$ satisfy a certain system of Hirota Quadratic (or Bilinear) Equations. Our result is the analogue of the so-called Toda conjecture in the Gromov-Witten theory of $mathbfP^1$ or more precisely its non-extended version. A new feature […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rafael Yuste | Authors: Dean Geckt, Netanel Ofer, Michael W. Reimann, Rafael Yuste and Idan Segev | Summary: Dendritic spines, small protrusions covering the dendrites of most neurons, are fundamental elements of synaptic connectivity, yet their network-level organization remains poorly understood. Here we leverage the large-scale MICrONS volumetric electron microscopy dataset of mouse […]
