Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Steven R. Ehlert, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei, Alan P. Marscher, Fabrizio Tavecchio | Summary: We present polarization measurements in the $2-8 thinspace mathrm{keV}$ band from blazar 1ES 0229+200, the first extreme high synchrotron peaked source to be observed by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). Combining […]
Kavli Affiliate: Liam Paninski | Authors: Marcus A. Triplett, Marta Gajowa, Benjamin Antin, Masato Sadahiro, Hillel Adesnik and Liam Paninski | Summary: Abstract Discovering how neural computations are implemented in the cortex at the level of monosynaptic connectivity requires probing for the existence of synapses from possibly thousands of presynaptic candidate neurons. Two-photon optogenetics has […]
Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | First 5 Authors: Mason Ng, Andrew K. Hughes, Jeroen Homan, Jon M. Miller, Sean N. Pike | Summary: We report on X-ray (NICER/NuSTAR/MAXI/Swift) and radio (MeerKAT) timing and spectroscopic analysis from a three-month monitoring campaign in 2022 of a high-intensity outburst of the dipping neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 1A […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin A. Kara | First 5 Authors: Jack M. M. Neustadt, Christopher S. Kochanek, John Montano, Jonathan Gelbord, Aaron J. Barth | Summary: We fit the UV/optical lightcurves of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 817 to produce maps of the accretion disk temperature fluctuations $delta T$ resolved in time and radius. The $delta […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Guy C. Moore, Matthew K. Horton, Kristin A. Persson, , | Summary: We propose and implement a novel hybrid meta-heuristic optimization algorithm for the identification of non-collinear global ground-states in magnetic systems. The inputs to this optimization scheme are directly from non-collinear density functional theory (DFT), […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah A. Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Caleb W. Fink, Chiara Salemi, Betty A. Young, David I. Schuster, Noah A. Kurinsky | Summary: With great interest from the quantum computing community, an immense amount of R&D effort has been invested into improving superconducting qubits. The technologies developed for the design and fabrication of […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Aihara | Summary: We determine the CKM matrix-element magnitude $|V_{cb}|$ using $overline{B}^0to D^{*+}ell^-barnu_ell$ decays reconstructed in $189 , mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of collision data collected by the Belle II experiment, located at the SuperKEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. Partial decay rates […]
Kavli Affiliate: Timothy Brown, Anders Dale | Authors: Carolina Makowski, Timothy T Brown, Weiqi Zhao, Donald J Hagler, Pravesh Parekh, Hugh Garavan, Thomas E Nichols, Terry L Jernigan and Anders M Dale | Summary: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a popular and useful non-invasive method to map patterns of brain structure and function to complex […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Chuntian Cao, Matthew R. Carbone, Cem Komurcuoglu, Jagriti S. Shekhawat, Kerry Sun | Summary: Electrochemical degradation of solid electrolytes is a major roadblock in the development of solid-state batteries, and the formed solid-solid interphase (SSI) plays a key role in the performance of solid-state batteries. In this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Wendy Xin, Megumi Kaneko, Richard H Roth, Albert Zhang, Sonia Nocera, Jun B Ding, Michael P Stryker and Jonah R Chan | Summary: BACKGROUND: Developmental myelination is a protracted process in the mammalian brain. One theory for why oligodendrocytes mature so slowly posits that myelination may stabilize neuronal circuits […]
