Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Penelope K. Jones, Kara D. Fong, Kristin A. Persson, Alpha A. Lee, | Summary: Ion transport in concentrated electrolytes plays a fundamental role in electrochemical systems such as lithium ion batteries. Nonetheless, the mechanism of transport amid strong ion-ion interactions remains enigmatic. A key question is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bo Gu | First 5 Authors: Zheng-Wei Liao, Xin-Wei Yi, Jing-Yang You, Bo Gu, Gang Su | Summary: Superconductivity in transition metal nitrides (TMNs) has been investigated for a long time, such as zirconium nitride (ZrN) with a superconducting transition temperature Tc of 10 K. Recently, a phase diagram has been revealed in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tomotake Matsumura | First 5 Authors: Tommaso Ghigna, Tomotake Matsumura, Yuki Sakurai, Ryota Takaku, Kunimoto Komatsu | Summary: Most upcoming CMB experiments are planning to deploy between a few thousand and a few hundred thousand TES bolometers in order to drastically increase sensitivity and unveil the B-mode signal. Differential systematic effects and $1/f$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Takahiko Matsubara, Misao Sasaki, , , | Summary: We perturbatively study the effect of non-Gaussianities on the mass fraction of primordial black holes (PBHs) at the time of formation by systematically taking its effect into account in the one-point probability distribution function of the primordial curvature perturbation. […]

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 […]
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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xin Duan | Authors: Alicia N Vagnozzi, Matthew T Moore, Minshan Lin, Elyse M Brozost, Ritesh KC, Aambar Agarwal, Lindsay A Schwarz, Xin Duan, Niccolò Zampieri, Lynn T Landmesser and Polyxeni Philippidou | Summary: Abstract Breathing, and the motor circuits that control it, are essential for life. At the core of respiratory circuits […]
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 […]
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 […]
