Kavli Affiliate: Jeevak Parpia | First 5 Authors: Yefan Tian, Dmytro Lotnyk, Anna Eyal, Kuang Zhang, Nikolay Zhelev | Summary: Because of the extreme purity, lack of disorder, and complex order parameter, the first-order superfluid $^3$He A-B transition is the leading model system for first order transitions in the early universe. Here we report on […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Zhi-Yuan Fan, Liu Qiu, Simon Gröblacher, Jie Li, | Summary: Microwave-optics entanglement is a vital component for building hybrid quantum networks. Here, a new mechanism for preparing stationary entanglement between microwave and optical cavity fields in a cavity optomagnomechanical system is proposed. It consists of a magnon […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kent D. Irwin | First 5 Authors: Cyndia Yu, Zeeshan Ahmed, Josef C. Frisch, Shawn W. Henderson, Max Silva-Feaver | Summary: We describe the newest generation of the SLAC Microresonator RF (SMuRF) electronics, a warm digital control and readout system for microwave-frequency resonator-based cryogenic detector and multiplexer systems such as microwave SQUID multiplexers […]

Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | First 5 Authors: Christopher Hilweg, Danial Shadmany, Philip Walther, Nergis Mavalvala, Vivishek Sudhir | Summary: Today’s most precise optical instruments — gravitational-wave interferometers and optical atomic clocks — rely on long storage times for photons to realize their exquisite sensitivity. Optical fiber technology is the most widely deployed platform for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Blake Sherwin | First 5 Authors: Zack Li, Rui An, Vera Gluscevic, Kimberly K. Boddy, J. Richard Bond | Summary: Diverse astrophysical observations suggest the existence of cold dark matter that interacts only gravitationally with radiation and ordinary baryonic matter. Any nonzero coupling between dark matter and baryons would provide a significant step […]
Kavli Affiliate: James Bock | First 5 Authors: Sam Condon, Marco Viero, James Bock, Howard Hui, Phil Korngut | Summary: Selected as the next NASA Medium Class Explorer mission, SPHEREx, the Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization, and Ices Explorer is planned for launch in early 2025. SPHEREx calibration data products […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert L. Byer | First 5 Authors: Yen-Chieh Huang, Robert L. Byer, , , | Summary: A dielectric laser accelerator, operating at optical frequencies and GHz pulse rate, is expected to produce attosec electron bunches with a moderate beam current at high energy. For relativistic electrons, the attosec bunch has a spatial length […]
