Kavli Affiliate: Kevin Reil | First 5 Authors: Joseph Harry Silber, Parker Fagrelius, Kevin Fanning, Michael Schubnell, Jessica Nicole Aguilar | Summary: A system of 5,020 robotic fiber positioners was installed in 2019 on the Mayall Telescope, at Kitt Peak National Observatory. The robots automatically re-target their optical fibers every 10 – 20 minutes, each […]
Kavli Affiliate: Felix Fischer | First 5 Authors: Javier Cembrano, Felix Fischer, David Hannon, Max Klimm, | Summary: Impartial selection is the selection of an individual from a group based on nominations by other members of the group, in such a way that individuals cannot influence their own chance of selection. For this problem, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Huajie Cheng, Wen Han Chiu, Yaquan Fang, Yu Gao, Jiayin Gu | Summary: The Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) is a large-scale collider facility that can serve as a factory of the Higgs, Z, and W bosons and is upgradable to run at the ttbar threshold. This […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul L. Schechter | First 5 Authors: Chirag Falor, Paul L. Schechter, , , | Summary: The quadruple image configurations of gravitational lenses with vanishing ellipticity are examined. Even though such lenses asymptotically approach circularity, the configurations are stable if the position of the source relative to the vanishing diamond caustic is held […]
Kavli Affiliate: John Richardson | First 5 Authors: Nicholas Waytowich, James Hare, Vinicius G. Goecks, Mark Mittrick, John Richardson | Summary: Traditionally, learning from human demonstrations via direct behavior cloning can lead to high-performance policies given that the algorithm has access to large amounts of high-quality data covering the most likely scenarios to be encountered […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roland K. Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, Andrew Vanderburg, George Zhou, Jason D. Eastman | Summary: We present the discovery and characterization of six short-period, transiting giant planets from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) — TOI-1811 (TIC 376524552), TOI-2025 (TIC 394050135), TOI-2145 (TIC 88992642), TOI-2152 (TIC […]

Kavli Affiliate: Viatcheslav V. Dobrovitski | First 5 Authors: Brennan Undseth, Xiao Xue, Mohammad Mehmandoost, Maximilian Russ, Pieter T. Eendebak | Summary: Micromagnet-based electric dipole spin resonance (EDSR) offers an attractive path for the near-term scaling of dense arrays of silicon spin qubits in gate-defined quantum dots while maintaining long coherence times and high control […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey Moses | First 5 Authors: Noah Flemens, Jeffrey Moses, , , | Summary: While non-Hermitian systems are normally constructed through incoherent coupling to a larger environment, recent works have shown that under certain conditions coherent couplings can be used to similar effect. We show that this new paradigm enables the behavior associated […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Xianda Guo, Zheng Zhu, Tian Yang, Beibei Lin, Junjie Huang | Summary: Gait benchmarks empower the research community to train and evaluate high-performance gait recognition systems. Even though growing efforts have been devoted to cross-view recognition, academia is restricted by current existing databases captured in the controlled […]
