Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: David J. Armstrong, Ares Osborn, Vardan Adibekyan, Elisa Delgado-Mena, Saeed Hojjatpanah | Summary: We report the discovery of two exoplanets orbiting around HD 212729 (TOI,1052, TIC 317060587), a $T_{rm eff}=6146$K star with V=9.51 observed by TESS in Sectors 1 and 13. One exoplanet, TOI-1052b, is Neptune-mass and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Francesco Serafin, Mark J. Bowick, , , | Summary: Using the proof of Willmore’s conjecture by Marques and Neves, we conjecture that the free energy of tensionless fluid membranes of arbitrary genus has an upper bound. This implies that the average genus of such a membrane, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Reza Shadmehr | Authors: Paul Hage, In Kyu Jang, Vivian Looi, Mohammad Amin Fakharian, Simon P Orozco, Ehsan Sedaghat-Nejad, Jay Pi and Reza Shadmehr | Summary: We prefer to decline effortful rewards, but if the circumstances require it, we will move only slowly to harvest them. Why should economic variables such as reward […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jinjiang Zhu, Yang Feng, Xiaodong Zhou, Yongchao Wang, Zichen Lian | Summary: The chiral edge current is the boundary manifestation of the Chern number of a quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator. Its direct observation is assumed to require well-quantized Hall conductance, and is so far lacking. The […]
Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Pau Amaro Seoane, , , , | Summary: In galactic nuclei, stellar densities are so high that stars can physically collide with each other. In this work we focus on the collision of red giants and in particular on the formation of non-thermal processes through collisions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Patricia Janak | Authors: Eric Garr, Yifeng Cheng, Huijeong Jeong, Sara Brooke, Laia Castell, Aneesh Bal, Robin Magnard, Vijay Mohan K. Namboodiri and Patricia H. Janak | Summary: Learning causal relationships relies on understanding how often one event precedes another. To gain an understanding of how dopamine neuron activity and neurotransmitter release change […]

Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Igor Andreoni, Michael W. Coughlin, Alexander W. Criswell, Mattia Bulla, Andrew Toivonen | Summary: Binary neutron star mergers and neutron star-black hole mergers are multi-messenger sources that can be detected in gravitational waves and in electromagnetic radiation. The low electron fraction of neutron star merger ejecta […]
