Physics-Informed Machine Learning for Response Tensors in Crystalline Magnets: Application to Kagome Metals

Kavli Affiliate: Joel Moore | Summary:The prediction of response tensors from magnetic textures is a crucial challenge in the study of noncollinear magnets. Existing methods for constructing descriptors of a given response tensor are limited to first-order multipole expansions or restricted to simple magnetic structures. In this work, we construct a complete symmetry-invariant descriptor basis […]

The LSST Science Pipelines Software: Optical Survey Pipeline Reduction and Analysis Environment

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | Summary:The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory is executing the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) as its prime mission, producing a series of data releases over the ten-year survey. The LSST Science Pipelines Software will be used to create these data releases and to perform the nightly prompt processing […]

Band-Resolved Superconducting Gaps via the Thermal Hall Effect in CeRu2

Kavli Affiliate: Joel Moore | Summary:Standard bulk probes of multiband superconductors cannot assign pairing gaps to specific electron or hole Fermi surfaces. Here we show that thermal Hall transport ($κ_xy$), constrained by specific heat and normal-state magnetotransport, resolves this ambiguity in the compensated heavy-fermion superconductor CeRu$_2$. Fixing the gap magnitudes ($Δ_e/k_Bapprox 13$K, $Δ_h/k_Bapprox 8$K) and […]

A Sample of Thick-Disk Stars Hosting Hot Jupiters

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | Summary:We present a homogeneous analysis of 268 confirmed and candidate transiting hot-Jupiter host stars with 4800K < Teff < 6200K. We combine high-resolution TRES spectra, Gaia, 2MASS and WISE photometry, and Gaia astrometry to determine these stars’ Teff, log g, Rstar, [alpha/Fe] and [Fe/H]. Based on their [alpha/Fe] and [Fe/H], […]

Properties and limitations of linear models for mutual coupling in 21 cm arrays

Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline Hewitt | Summary:Mutual coupling between elements of low-frequency arrays is a leading systematic for 21 cm cosmology, leaking bright foregrounds into otherwise clean regions of the power spectrum. Many mitigation models describe coupling as a linear combination of uncoupled signals re-radiated from neighboring feeds, but data suggest additional mechanisms. Inspired by antenna […]

Probing fundamental physics with ALMA2040 mm-wavelength observations of neutron stars

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | Summary:Bursty or (rotation-induced) pulsed coherent radio emission from pulsars, magnetars, and fast radio transients originates in some of the most extreme environments in the Universe. However, the exact physical mechanism behind the scenes remains poorly understood. ALMA2040 will allow for systematic exploration of the millimeter-wavelength spectral window for pulsars and […]

Writability and the Pathway: A Controlled Study of Knowledge Injection into Addressed Memory

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao| Summary:Addressed conditional memory provides a local surface for post-hoc knowledge injection, but a successful write need not transfer to a new question or preserve untargeted behavior. This study combines a controlled GPT-2 comparison with production-memory experiments on Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-FP8 and DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash. Newly initialized modules attached to frozen GPT-2 are tested in a […]

Testing the inelastic dark matter interpretation of the LZ event with heavy-element experiments

Kavli Affiliate: Peter Graham | Summary:We consider the inelastic dark matter interpretation of the recent 248 keV event observed by LZ and identify different experiments that could test it. Details of the underlying model and the ability of complementary experiments to test it depend significantly on the high-velocity tail of the dark matter distribution. We […]
