Phase Drift Monitoring for Tone Tracking Readout of Superconducting Microwave Resonators

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Max Silva-Feaver, Zeeshan Ahmed, Kam Arnold, Josef C. Frisch, John Groh | Summary: A number of modern millimeter, sub-millimeter, and far-infrared detectors are read out using superconducting microwave (1-10GHz) resonators. The main detector technologies are Transition Edge Sensors, read out using Microwave SQUID Multiplexers ($mu$mux) and Microwave […]

A Stress Induced Source of Phonon Bursts and Quasiparticle Poisoning

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Robin Anthony-Petersen, Andreas Biekert, Raymond Bunker, Clarence L. Chang, Yen-Yung Chang | Summary: The performance of superconducting qubits is degraded by a poorly characterized set of energy sources breaking the Cooper pairs responsible for superconductivity, creating a condition often called "quasiparticle poisoning." Recently, a superconductor with one […]

Production of brain-derived neurotrophic factor gates plasticity in developing visual cortex

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Megumi Kaneko and Michael P Stryker | Summary: Abstract We have previously shown that recovery of visual responses to a deprived eye during the critical period in mouse primary visual cortex (V1) requires both export of mRNA encoding brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) to the dendrites of cortical cells […]

Modeling Dust Production, Growth, and Destruction in Reionization-Era Galaxies with the CROC Simulations: Methods and Parameter Exploration

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Clarke J. Esmerian, Nickolay Y. Gnedin, , , | Summary: We introduce a model for the explicit evolution of interstellar dust in a cosmological galaxy formation simulation. We post-process a simulation from the Cosmic Reionization on Computers project (CROC, Gnedin 2014), integrating an ordinary differential equation […]

Exploring $boldsymbol{2+2}$ Answers to $boldsymbol{3+1}$ Questions

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | First 5 Authors: Jonathan J. Heckman, Austin Joyce, Jeremy Sakstein, Mark Trodden, | Summary: We explore potential uses of physics formulated in Kleinian (i.e., $2+2$) signature spacetimes as a tool for understanding properties of physics in Lorentzian (i.e., $3+1$) signature. Much as Euclidean (i.e., $4+0$) signature quantities can be used […]

Link Prediction on Heterophilic Graphs via Disentangled Representation Learning

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Shijie Zhou, Zhimeng Guo, Charu Aggarwal, Xiang Zhang, Suhang Wang | Summary: Link prediction is an important task that has wide applications in various domains. However, the majority of existing link prediction approaches assume the given graph follows homophily assumption, and designs similarity-based heuristics or representation learning […]

The Host Galaxy and Rapidly Evolving Broad-line Region in the Changing-look Active Galactic Nucleus 1ES 1927+654

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Ruancun Li, Luis C. Ho, Claudio Ricci, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Iair Arcavi | Summary: Changing-look active galactic nuclei (AGNs) present an important laboratory to understand the origin and physical properties of the broad-line region (BLR). We investigate follow-up optical spectroscopy spanning $sim 500$ days after the outburst of […]
