Kavli Affiliate: Lile Wang |Summary:Binary black holes (BBHs) in gaseous medium, such as active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks, are important gravitational-wave sources, yet the gas-driven torque that governs their orbital evolution remains to be fully understood. Most existing studies of BBHs in gas often approximate the net torque as the sum of independent dynamical friction […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Li Na Zhao and Jesper Andersen | Summary: Background The rising burden of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD)-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) underscores the need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Methods We integrated RNA-seq fusion detection, immunopeptidomics, and proteogenomics to systematically prioritize tumor-specific neoantigen candidates arising from gene fusions in MASLD-HCC. Results We […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Roukes | Summary:This work introduces a frequency synchronization circuit model for analog vector-matrix multiplication in the frequency domain. The frequency synchronization is implemented by coupling oscillators through all-to-all connections. Each oscillator is implemented using complementary cross-coupled transconductance pairs and RC high-pass filters. In this work, the frequency synchronization is achieved not only […]

Kavli Affiliate: Zachary Knight | Authors: Heeun Jang, Alexis Behne Sharma, Usan Dan, Jasmine H. Wong, Zachary A. Knight and Jennifer L. Garrison | Summary: Chronic dehydration is a leading cause of morbidity for the elderly, but how aging alters the fluid homeostasis system is not well understood. Here, we used a combination of physiologic, […]
Kavli Affiliate: John Silverman | Summary:Dust is a key component of galaxies that regulates their thermal balance and, consequently, star formation and the build-up of stellar mass. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are responsible for reprocessing radiative energy of the galaxies thus tracing dust evolution. Using JWST/MIRI MRS, we present the first resolved view of the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | Summary:While we have learned much from recent surveys of the mm-wave sky, many secondary anisotropies of the CMB remain under-explored. We consider two of these here: the anisotropic screening induced by Thomson scattering of CMB photons off free electrons, and cosmic birefringence, the rotation of CMB polarization due to parity-violating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mazhar Ali | Summary: We develop a geometric description of spin-dependent transport based on the local geometric structure of electronic bands and the Fermi surfaces. For quasi-two-dimensional systems, we show that hyperbolic regions of constant-energy surfaces generate a geometrical contribution to the Fermi velocity that couples naturally to electron spin and produces a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Susan Clark | Summary:We present a three-dimensional model of the local interstellar radiation field (ISRF) in the ultraviolet (UV). Using UV flux measurements from the TD1 catalog and stellar distances from Gaia and Hipparcos, we construct a catalog of stars that we expect to dominate the UV flux in the nearby Galaxy. We […]
