Kavli Affiliate: Alan M. Levine | First 5 Authors: Edward M. Bryant, Andrés Jordán, Joel D. Hartman, Daniel Bayliss, Elyar Sedaghati | Summary: Planet formation models suggest that the formation of giant planets is significantly harder around low-mass stars, due to the scaling of protoplanetary disc masses with stellar mass. The discovery of giant planets […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shawn Ferguson | Authors: Layla M Nassar, xiaojian Shi, Agnes Roczniak-Ferguson, Hongying Shen and Shawn M Ferguson | Summary: Lysosomes break down macromolecules, clear cellular waste and recycle nutrients such as cystine. We describe a novel mechanism whereby JIP4 regulates lysosomal cystine storage by controlling the abundance of cystinosin (CTNS), the transporter responsible […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed, H. Aihara | Summary: We measure the CP asymmetry in $D^+ to pi^+ pi^0$ decays reconstructed in $e^+ e^-$ collisions at the Belle II experiment using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 428 fb$^{-1}$. A […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: Nicoló Cibrario, Michela Negro, Raffaella Bonino, Nikita Moriakov, Luca Baldini | Summary: Spatially resolved polarization measurements of extended X-ray sources are expanding our understanding of the emission mechanisms and magnetic field properties involved. Such measurements have been possible in the past few years thanks to the Imaging […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Shigeki Matsumoto, Jie Sheng, Chuan-Yang Xing, Lin Zhu, | Summary: Light dark matter with sub-eV masses has a high number density in our galaxy, and its scattering cross section with macroscopic objects can be significantly enhanced by coherence effects. Repeated scattering with a target object can induce […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Yadong Jiang, Huan Wang, Jing Wang, , | Summary: We theoretically propose that the van der Waals layered ternary transition metal chalcogenide FeTaX$_2$ (X = S, Se, Te) is a new family of ferrimagnetic quantum anomalous Hall insulators with sizable bulk gap and Chern number C = […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Yu Watanabe, Alexander Kusenko, Shigeki Matsumoto, , | Summary: We explore whether the unprecedented energy resolution of upcoming gamma-ray telescopes can uncover relativistic effects in photon spectra resulting from dark matter (DM) annihilation or decay near the supermassive black hole (SMBH) at the Galactic Center (GC), specifically, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kenneth Miller | Authors: Ho Yin Chau, Kenneth D Miller and Agostina Palmigiano | Summary: What are the principles that govern the responses of cortical networks to their inputs and the emergence of these responses from recurrent connectivity? Recent experiments have probed these questions by measuring cortical responses to two-photon optogenetic perturbations of […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Jeffery W. Martin, B. Algohi, D. Anthony, L. Barrón-Palos, M. Bradley | Summary: The TUCAN (TRIUMF UltraCold Advanced Neutron) Collaboration is completing a new ultracold neutron (UCN) source. The UCN source will deliver UCNs to a neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) experiment. The EDM experiment is projected […]
