Fabry-Pérot nanocavities controlled by Casimir forces in electrolyte solutions

Kavli Affiliate: Rudolf Podgornik | First 5 Authors: Lixin Ge, Kaipeng Liu, Ke Gong, Rudolf Podgornik, | Summary: We propose a design for tuning the resonant spectra of Fabry-P'{e}rot nanocavities mediated by the Casimir force. The system involves a suspended gold nanoplate approaching to a dielectric-coated gold substrate in a univalent electrolyte solution. The gold […]

A Search for Temporal Atmospheric Variability of Kepler Hot Jupiters

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Canis Li, Avi Shporer, , , | Summary: We perform a systematic search for atmospheric variability in short-period gas-giant planets (hot Jupiters) observed by the Kepler mission, by looking for temporal variability of their secondary eclipse depths. This is motivated by a recent detection of a decrease […]

Transfer Learning-Enhanced Instantaneous Multi-Person Indoor Localization by CSI

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Zhiyuan He, Ke Deng, Jiangchao Gong, Yi Zhou, Desheng Wang | Summary: Passive indoor localization, integral to smart buildings, emergency response, and indoor navigation, has traditionally been limited by a focus on single-target localization and reliance on multi-packet CSI. We introduce a novel Multi-target loss, notably enhancing […]

$Γ$-VAE: Curvature regularized variational autoencoders for uncovering emergent low dimensional geometric structure in high dimensional data

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | First 5 Authors: Jason Z. Kim, Nicolas Perrin-Gilbert, Erkan Narmanli, Paul Klein, Christopher R. Myers | Summary: Natural systems with emergent behaviors often organize along low-dimensional subsets of high-dimensional spaces. For example, despite the tens of thousands of genes in the human genome, the principled study of genomics is fruitful […]

Dispersive-wave-agile optical frequency division

Kavli Affiliate: Kerry Vahala | First 5 Authors: Qing-Xin Ji, Wei Zhang, Peng Liu, Warren Jin, Joel Guo | Summary: The remarkable frequency stability of resonant systems in the optical domain (optical cavities and atomic transitions) can be harnessed at frequency scales accessible by electronics using optical frequency division. This capability is revolutionizing technologies spanning […]

Experimental demonstration of scalable cross-entropy benchmarking to detect measurement-induced phase transitions on a superconducting quantum processor

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Hirsh Kamakari, Jiace Sun, Yaodong Li, Jonathan J. Thio, Tanvi P. Gujarati | Summary: Quantum systems subject to random unitary evolution and measurements at random points in spacetime exhibit entanglement phase transitions which depend on the frequency of these measurements. Past work has experimentally observed […]
