Microtextures in the Chelyabinsk impact breccia reveal the history of Phosphorus-Olivine-Assemblages in chondrites

Kavli Affiliate: Paul D. Asimow | First 5 Authors: Craig R. Walton, Ioannis Baziotis, Ana Černok, Oliver Shorttle, Paul D. Asimow | Summary: The geochemistry and textural associations of chondritic phosphate minerals can provide insights into the geological histories of parental asteroids, but the processes governing their formation and deformation remain poorly constrained. Here, we […]

Enhanced corrections near holographic entanglement transitions: a chaotic case study

Kavli Affiliate: Huajia Wang | First 5 Authors: Xi Dong, Huajia Wang, , , | Summary: Recent work found an enhanced correction to the entanglement entropy of a subsystem in a chaotic energy eigenstate. The enhanced correction appears near a phase transition in the entanglement entropy that happens when the subsystem size is half of […]

Muons in supernovae: implications for the axion-muon coupling

Kavli Affiliate: Peter W. Graham | First 5 Authors: Robert Bollig, William DeRocco, Peter W. Graham, Hans-Thomas Janka, | Summary: The high temperature and electron degeneracy attained during a supernova allow for the formation of a large muon abundance within the core of the resulting proto-neutron star. If new pseudoscalar degrees of freedom have large […]
