Kavli Affiliate: Michael Beer | Authors: Kijin Jang, Kevin Ostacolo, Valdimar Sveinsson, Michael A Beer, Kimberley Jade Anderson and Hans Tomas Bjornsson | Summary: Abstract The mild hypothermia response (MHR) is a conserved mammalian cytoprotective program activated upon exposure to mild hypothermia (32 °C) that contributes to the neuroprotective effects of therapeutic hypothermia following hypoxic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Martin Lindquist | Authors: Yanxi Liu, Richard E. Harris, Daniel Clauw, Emine Bayman, Andrew Leroux and Martin A. Lindquist | Summary: Chronic pain is a widespread public health issue that imposes substantial health, emotional, and economic burdens on individuals and communities. Because pain is subjective and lacks objective biomarkers, it is typically measured […]
Kavli Affiliate: Loren Frank, Massimo Scanziani, and Razi Haque | Authors: Kyu Hyun Lee, Philip Adenekan, Fan Gao, Jenny Zhou, Jose Hernandez, Allison Yorita, Razi Haque, Kenneth Kay, Massimo Scanziani and Loren Frank | Summary: Primary visual cortex (V1) is a critical substrate for mammalian vision. Traditionally, visual inputs are thought to be the main […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | Summary:Cool-gas inflows, required to sustain star formation, have been fundamental in simulations yet remained observationally elusive. Using DESI spectroscopy of ~30,000 galaxies, we identify coherent inflowing gas (~100 km/s) in 20-50% of the sample, yielding a population-level census of gas flows. We uncover a striking inversion: inflows are detected in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis Ho | Summary:Narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies are key laboratories for studying rapid supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback at high accretion rates. We investigate the nearby NLSy1 Ton S180 with VLT-MUSE optical integral field spectroscopy to connect its nuclear accretion properties with the spatially resolved ionized […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | Summary:Coherent interfaces between optical photons and mechanical excitations provide a promising route towards phonon-state engineering and hybrid quantum information processing. Cavity optomechanical systems enable such interfaces via optomechanically induced transparency (OMIT), allowing coherent mapping between traveling optical fields and localized mechanical modes. However, previous implementations of OMIT conversion protocols were […]
