Kavli Affiliate: George A. Alvarez | Authors: Jacob S. Prince, Binxu Wang, Thomas Fel, Akshay V. Jagadeesh, Parisa A. Vaziri, George A. Alvarez, Margaret S. Livingstone and Talia Konkle | Summary: Leading deep neural network encoding models predict visual cortical responses with nearly indistinguishable accuracy, raising the strong inference that these models have converged on […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | Summary:Stellar activity complicates exoplanet transmission spectra, particularly for smaller planets around M dwarfs with JWST. The transit light source (TLS) effect, the imprinting of spectral differences between the average stellar disk and the occulted transit chord onto the transmission spectrum, makes it challenging to directly use the out-of-transit spectrum to […]

Kavli Affiliate: James Analytis| Summary:The unusual transport properties of strange metals point to the breakdown of the quasiparticle picture, the understanding of which remains one of the most vexing problems in physics. Here, we report investigations of the electrical Hall effect of the strange metal superconductor BaFe$_2$(As$_1-x$P$_x$)$_2$. We show that a doping-independent contribution to the […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | Summary:Oxygen dopants play a critical role in tuning the properties of cuprate superconductors, yet it is challenging to visualize them at the atomic scale. Here, we use multislice electron ptychography to directly image oxygen dopants in a Sr2CuO3+delta film. We observe oxygen dopants at interstitial sites between the Cu-O chains, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | Summary:Galaxy morphology is shaped by both assembly history and baryonic processes, but their relative roles remain uncertain. We use the VariableTNG (VTNG) simulation suite to investigate how variations in baryonic feedback regulate galaxy morphology while keeping the initial conditions fixed. VTNG consists of cosmological magnetohydrodynamic simulations performed with the moving-mesh […]
