Nonreciprocal Infrared Absorption via Resonant Magneto-optical Coupling to InAs

Kavli Affiliate: Harry Atwater | First 5 Authors: Komron Shayegan, Bo Zhao, Yonghwi Kim, Shanhui Fan, Harry Atwater | Summary: Nonreciprocal elements are a vital building block of electrical and optical systems. In the infrared regime, there is a particular interest in structures that break reciprocity because their thermal absorptive (and emissive) properties should not […]

Experimentally ruling out joint reality based on operational completeness

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Qiuxin Zhang, Yu Xiang, Xiaoting Gao, Chenhao Zhu, Yuxin Wang | Summary: Whether the observables of a physical system admit real values is of fundamental importance to a deep understanding of nature. In this work, we report a device-independent experiment to confirm that the joint reality of […]

Incorporating galaxy cluster triaxiality in stacked cluster weak lensing analyses

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Zhuowen Zhang, Hao-Yi Wu, Yuanyuan Zhang, Joshua Frieman, Chun-Hao To | Summary: Counts of galaxy clusters offer a high-precision probe of cosmology, but control of systematic errors will determine the accuracy of this measurement. Using Buzzard simulations, we quantify one such systematic, the triaxiality distribution of clusters […]

Tube-Balloon Logic for the Exploration of Fluidic Control Elements

Kavli Affiliate: George M. Whitesides | First 5 Authors: Jovanna A. Tracz, Lukas Wille, Dylan Pathiraja, Savita V. Kendre, Ron Pfisterer | Summary: The control of pneumatically driven soft robots typically requires electronics. Microcontrollers are connected to power electronics that switch valves and pumps on and off. As a recent alternative, fluidic control methods have […]

On Unbalanced Optimal Transport: Gradient Methods, Sparsity and Approximation Error

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Quang Minh Nguyen, Hoang H. Nguyen, Yi Zhou, Lam M. Nguyen, | Summary: We study the Unbalanced Optimal Transport (UOT) between two measures of possibly different masses with at most $n$ components, where the marginal constraints of standard Optimal Transport (OT) are relaxed via Kullback-Leibler divergence with […]

Unsupervised Long-Term Person Re-Identification with Clothes Change

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Mingkun Li, Shupeng Cheng, Peng Xu, Xiatian Zhu, Chun-Guang Li | Summary: We investigate unsupervised person re-identification (Re-ID) with clothes change, a new challenging problem with more practical usability and scalability to real-world deployment. Most existing re-id methods artificially assume the clothes of every single person to […]

Intensity interferometry for ultralight bosonic dark matter detection

Kavli Affiliate: Yevgeny V. Stadnik | First 5 Authors: Hector Masia-Roig, Nataniel L. Figueroa, Ariday Bordon, Joseph A. Smiga, Yevgeny V. Stadnik | Summary: Ultralight bosonic dark matter (UBDM) can be described by a classical wave-like field oscillating near the Compton frequency of the bosons. If a measurement scheme for the direct detection of UBDM […]

Active entanglement enables stochastic, topological grasping

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Wood | First 5 Authors: Kaitlyn Becker, Clark Teeple, Nicholas Charles, Yeonsu Jung, Daniel Baum | Summary: Grasping, in both biological and engineered mechanisms, can be highly sensitive to the gripper and object morphology, as well as perception, and motion planning. Here we circumvent the need for feedback or precise planning by […]
