Kavli Affiliate: Arlene Aleman | First 5 Authors: Arlene Aleman, Bruce Macintosh, Mary Anne Limbach, Mark Marley, Jeffrey Chilcote | Summary: Direct imaging characterization of extrasolar planets is often done at low spectral resolution. We model the spectrograph for the Gemini Planet Imager upgrade (GPI 2.0) and assess the instrument’s potential for allowing observers to […]
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: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Chien-An Wang, Ercan Ekmel, Mark Gyure, Giordano Scappucci, Menno Veldhorst | Summary: Hole-based spin qubits in strained planar germanium quantum wells have received considerable attention due to their favourable properties and remarkable experimental progress. The sizeable spin-orbit interaction in this structure allows for efficient qubit operations with […]
