Cell Type Specific CAG Repeat Expansion and Toxicity of Mutant Huntingtin in Human Striatal and Cerebellar Cell Types

Kavli Affiliate: Nathaniel Heintz | Authors: Kert Mätlik, Matthew Baffuto, Laura Kus, David A Davis, Matthew R Paul, Thomas S Carroll and Nathaniel Heintz | Summary: Tissue-specific somatic expansion of the mutant Huntingtin (mHTT) CAG tract and regional degeneration of the brain are key features of Huntington’s disease (HD). However, the relationships between somatic CAG […]

Once Detected, Never Lost: Surpassing Human Performance in Offline LiDAR based 3D Object Detection

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Lue Fan, Yuxue Yang, Yiming Mao, Feng Wang, Yuntao Chen | Summary: This paper aims for high-performance offline LiDAR-based 3D object detection. We first observe that experienced human annotators annotate objects from a track-centric perspective. They first label the objects with clear shapes in a track, and […]

The origin of long soft lags and the nature of the hard-intermediate state in black hole binaries

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Tenyo Kawamura, Chris Done, Tadayuki Takahashi, , | Summary: Fast variability of the X-ray corona in black hole binaries can produce a soft lag by reverberation, where the reprocessed thermalized disc photons lag behind the illuminating hard X-rays. This lag is small, and systematically decreases with increasing […]

Multi-messenger signals of heavy axionlike particles in core-collapse supernovae: two-dimensional simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Kanji Mori, Tomoya Takiwaki, Kei Kotake, Shunsaku Horiuchi, | Summary: Core-collapse supernovae are a useful laboratory to probe the nature of exotic particles. If axionlike particles (ALPs) are produced in supernovae, they can affect the transfer of energy and leave traces in observational signatures. In this work, […]

A Cross-correlation Study between IceCube Neutrino Events and the Fermi Unresolved Gamma-ray Sky

Kavli Affiliate: Eric Charles | First 5 Authors: Michela Negro, Milena Crnogorčević, Eric Burns, Eric Charles, Lea Marcotulli | Summary: With the coincident detections of electromagnetic radiation together with gravitational waves (GW170817) or neutrinos (TXS 0506+056), the new era of multimessenger astrophysics has begun. Of particular interest are the searches for correlation between the high-energy […]
