The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. VI. Similarities and Differences in the Circumgalactic Medium

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Abel | First 5 Authors: Clayton Strawn, Santi Roca-Fàbrega, Joel R. Primack, Ji-hoon Kim, Anna Genina | Summary: We analyze the circumgalactic medium (CGM) for eight commonly-used cosmological codes in the AGORA collaboration. The codes are calibrated to use identical initial conditions, cosmology, heating and cooling, and star formation thresholds, but each […]

Opening the AI black box: program synthesis via mechanistic interpretability

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Eric J. Michaud, Isaac Liao, Vedang Lad, Ziming Liu, Anish Mudide | Summary: We present MIPS, a novel method for program synthesis based on automated mechanistic interpretability of neural networks trained to perform the desired task, auto-distilling the learned algorithm into Python code. We test MIPS on […]

Brain-state mediated modulation of inter-laminar dependencies in visual cortex

Posted by klaurent Yale

Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy | Authors: Anirban Das, Alec G. Sheffield, Anirvan S. Nandy and Monika P. Jadi | Summary: Adaptive information processing, comprised of local computations and their efficient routing, is crucial for flexible brain function. Spatial attention is a quintessential example of this adaptive process. It is critical for recognizing and interacting with […]

Measurement of $CP$ asymmetries in $B^0toη’K^0_s$ decays at Belle II

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed, H. Aihara | Summary: We describe a measurement of charge-parity ($CP$) violation asymmetries in $B^0toeta’K^0_S$ decays using Belle II data. We consider $eta’toeta(togammagamma)pi^+pi^-$ and $eta’torho(topi^+pi^-)gamma$ decays. The data were collected at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider between the […]

Introducing the BRAHMA simulation suite: Signatures of low mass black hole seeding models in cosmological simulations

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey, Luke Zoltan Kelley, Rainer Weinberger | Summary: The first "seeds" of supermassive black holes (BH) can range from $sim10^2-10^6~M_{odot}$. However, the lowest mass seeds ($lesssim10^3 M_{odot}$) are inaccessible to most cosmological simulations due to resolution limitations. We present our new […]

Observation of the fractional quantum spin Hall effect in moiré MoTe2

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Kaifei Kang, Bowen Shen, Yichen Qiu, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators are two-dimensional electronic materials that have a bulk band gap like an ordinary insulator but have topologically protected pairs of edge modes of opposite chiralities. To date, experimental studies have […]

Near-IR clumps and their properties in high-z galaxies with JWST/NIRCam

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Boris S. Kalita, John D. Silverman, Emanuele Daddi, Wilfried Mercier, Luis C. Ho | Summary: Resolved stellar morphology of $z>1$ galaxies was inaccessible before JWST. This limitation, due to the impact of dust on rest-frame UV light, had withheld major observational conclusions required to understand the […]

Integration of cognitive tasks into artificial general intelligence test for large models

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Youzhi Qu, Chen Wei, Penghui Du, Wenxin Che, Chi Zhang | Summary: During the evolution of large models, performance evaluation is necessarily performed on the intermediate models to assess their capabilities, and on the well-trained model to ensure safety before practical application. However, current model evaluations mainly […]
