Universal Gravitational Waves from Interacting and Clustered Solitons

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Kaloian D. Lozanov, Misao Sasaki, Volodymyr Takhistov, , | Summary: Causal soliton formation (e.g. oscillons, Q-balls) in the primordial Universe is expected to give rise to a universal gravitational wave (GW) background, at frequencies smaller than scales of nonlinearity. We show that modifications of the soliton density […]

Hybrid Strangeon Stars

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Chen Zhang, Yong Gao, Cheng-Jun Xia, Renxin Xu, | Summary: It was conjectured that the basic units of the ground state of bulk strong matter may be strange-clusters called strangeons, and they can form self-bound strangeon stars that are highly compact. Strangeon stars can develop a strange […]

Second-order optical response of superconductors induced by supercurrent injection

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Linghao Huang, Jing Wang, , , | Summary: We develop a theory of the nonlinear optical responses in superconducting systems in the presence of a dc supercurrent. The optical transitions between particle-hole pair bands across the superconducting gap are allowed in clean superconductors as the inversion-symmetry-breaking by […]

Magnetism on the thermal dynamics of 2D antiferromagnetic membranes

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Makars Siskins, Yaroslav Blanter, , | Summary: We developed a theoretical scheme of incorporating the magnetoelastic contribution into the thermal elastic dynamics for the thin membranes of 2D antiferromagnetic material with restricted geometry. We extended the elastic Gr"uneisen relation into an effective version which includes […]

Acetylcholine signaling in the medial prefrontal cortex mediates the ability to learn an active avoidance response following learned helplessness training

Kavli Affiliate: Marina Picciotto | Authors: Zuhair I Abdulla, Yann S Mineur, Richard B Crouse, Ian M Etherington, Hanna Yousuf, Jessica J Na and Marina R Picciotto | Summary: Increased brain levels of acetylcholine (ACh) are observed in subsets of patients with depression and increasing ACh levels chronically can precipitate stress-related behaviors in humans and […]

Perisaccadic and Attentional Remapping of Receptive Fields in Lateral Intraparietal Area and Frontal Eye Fields

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Goldberg | Authors: Xiao Wang, Cong Zhang, Lin Yang, Min Jin, Michael E Goldberg, Mingsha Zhang and Ning Qian | Summary: The nature and function of perisaccadic receptive-field (RF) remapping have been controversial. We used a delayed saccade task to reduce previous confounds and examined the remapping time course in areas LIP […]

Automatic monitoring of whole-body neural activity in behaving Hydra

Kavli Affiliate: Rafael Yuste | Authors: Alison Hanson, Raphael Reme, Noah Telerman, Wataru Yamamoto, Jean-Christophe Olivo-Marin, Thibault Lagache and Rafael Yuste | Summary: The ability to record every spike from every neuron in a behaving animal is one of the holy grails of neuroscience. Here, we report coming one step closer towards this goal with […]
