Large-Range Tuning and Stabilization of the Optical Transition of Diamond Tin-Vacancy Centers by In-Situ Strain Control

Kavli Affiliate: Ronald Hanson | First 5 Authors: Julia M. Brevoord, Leonardo G. C. Wienhoven, Nina Codreanu, Tetsuro Ishiguro, Elvis van Leeuwen | Summary: The negatively charged tin-vacancy (SnV-) center in diamond has emerged as a promising platform for quantum computing and quantum networks. To connect SnV- qubits in large networks, in-situ tuning and stabilization […]

Assessing the dark matter content of two quasar host galaxies at z~6 through gas kinematics

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Qinyue Fei, John D. Sivlerman, Seiji Fujimoto, Ran Wang, Luis C. Ho | Summary: We conduct a study of the gas kinematics of two quasar host galaxies at $zgtrsim6$ traced by the [CII] emission line using ALMA. By combining deep observations at both low and high resolution, […]

Opto-CLIP reveals dynamic FMRP regulation of mRNAs upon CA1 neuronal activation

Kavli Affiliate: Robert B. Darnell and Nathaniel Heintz | Authors: Ruth A Singer, Veronika Rajchin, Kwanghoon Park, Nathaniel Heintz and Robert B Darnell | Summary: Neuronal diversity and function are intricately linked to the dynamic regulation of RNA metabolism, including splicing, localization, and translation. Electrophysiologic studies of synaptic plasticity, models for learning and memory, are […]

Breakdown of superdiffusion in perturbed quantum integrable spin chains and ladders

Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Kevin Wang, Joel E. Moore, , , | Summary: Superdiffusive transport with dynamical exponent $z=3/2$ has been firmly established at finite temperature for a class of integrable systems with a non-abelian global symmetry $G$. On the inclusion of integrability-breaking perturbations, diffusive transport with $z=2$ is generically […]

A Quasi-Optimal Stacking Method for Up-the-Ramp Readout Images

Kavli Affiliate: Hu Zhan | First 5 Authors: Guanghuan Wang, Hu Zhan, Zun Luo, Chengqi Liu, Youhua Xu | Summary: The non-destructive readout mode of a detector allows its pixels to be read multiple times during integration, generating a series of "up-the-ramp" images that keep accumulating photons between successive frames. Since the noise is correlated […]
