Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Shuyu Wang, Lina Necib, Alexander P. Ji, Xiaowei Ou, Mariangela Lisanti | Summary: Nyx is a nearby, prograde, and high-eccentricity stellar stream physically contained in the thick disk but with an unknown origin. Nyx could be the remnant of a disrupted dwarf galaxy, in which case the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | First 5 Authors: Han Zhao, Alkim Bozkurt, Mohammad Mirhosseini, , | Summary: Interfacing electronics with optical fiber networks is key to the long-distance transfer of classical and quantum information. Piezo-optomechanical transducers enable such interfaces by using GHz-frequency acoustic vibrations as mediators for converting microwave photons to optical photons via the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nobuhiko Katayama | First 5 Authors: Shinya Sugiyama, Tommaso Ghigna, Yurika Hoshino, Nobuhiko Katayama, Satoru Katsuda | Summary: We measured the vibration of a prototype superconducting magnetic bearing (SMB) operating at liquid nitrogen temperature. This prototype system was designed as a breadboard model for LiteBIRD low-frequency telescope (LFT) polarization modulator unit. We set […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Ran Wang, , , , | Summary: Consider the stochastic partial differential equation $$ frac{partial }{partial t}u_t(mathbf{x})= -(-Delta)^{frac{alpha}{2}}u_t(mathbf{x}) +bleft(u_t(mathbf{x})right)+sigmaleft(u_t(mathbf{x})right) dot F(t, mathbf{x}), tge0, mathbf{x}in mathbb R^d, $$ where $-(-Delta)^{frac{alpha}{2}}$ denotes the fractional Laplacian with the power $alpha/2in (1/2,1]$, and the driving noise $dot F$ is a centered […]
Kavli Affiliate: Martin Haehnelt | First 5 Authors: Harley Katz, Aayush Saxena, Joki Rosdahl, Taysun Kimm, Jeremy Blaizot | Summary: We use the SPHINX$^{20}$ cosmological radiation hydrodynamics simulation to study how Lyman Continuum (LyC) photons escape from galaxies and the observational signatures of this escape. We define two classes of LyC leaker: Bursty Leakers and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Anuvab Banerjee, Vibhore Negi, Ravi Joshi, Nagendra Kumar, Paul J. Wiita | Summary: We investigate the possible presence of quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) signals in 2103 blazars from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) time-domain survey. We detect a low-frequency QPO signal in five blazars observed over these […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Zheng Zhu, Qianqian Chen, , , | Summary: We study the prerequisites for realizing superconductivity in doped triangular-lattice Mott insulators by considering three distinct parent spin backgrounds, i.e., $120^{circ}$ antiferromagnets, quantum spin liquid, and stripy antiferromagnets, and all possible sign combinations $(tau_1, tau_2)$ of nearest-neighbor hopping and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kent D. Irwin | First 5 Authors: Stephen E. Kuenstner, Elizabeth C. van Assendelft, Saptarshi Chaudhuri, Hsiao-Mei Cho, Jason Corbin | Summary: We describe the RF Quantum Upconverter (RQU) and describe its application to quantum metrology of electromagnetic modes between dc and the Very High Frequency band (VHF) ($lesssim$300MHz). The RQU uses a […]
