Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Guy C. Moore, Matthew K. Horton, Aaron D. Kaplan, Sinéad M. Griffin, Kristin A. Persson | Summary: In this work, we extend the source-free (SF) exchange correlation (XC) functional developed by Sangeeta Sharma and co-workers to plane-wave density functional theory (DFT) based on the projector augmented […]
Kavli Affiliate: Brett P. Fors | First 5 Authors: Steven J. Yang, Stephanie I. Rosenbloom, Brett P. Fors, Meredith N. Silberstein, | Summary: Phase-segregated polyureas (PU) have received considerable interest due to their use as tough, impact-resistant coatings. Polyureas are favored for these applications due to their mechanical strain rate sensitivity and energy dissipation. Predicting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Raffaella Schneider, Roberto Maiolino, , , | Summary: Dust-obscured star formation has dominated the cosmic history of star formation since z = 4. However, the recent finding of significant amount of dust in galaxies out to z = 8 has opened the new frontier of investigating the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | First 5 Authors: Nathan Shammah, Anurag Saha Roy, Carmen G. Almudever, Sébastien Bourdeauducq, Anastasiia Butko | Summary: Quantum technologies such as communications, computing, and sensing offer vast opportunities for advanced research and development. While an open-source ethos currently exists within some quantum technologies, especially in quantum computer programming, we argue […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Yacheng Kang, Chang Liu, Jin-Ping Zhu, Yong Gao, Lijing Shao | Summary: Based on different neutron star-white dwarf (NS-WD) population models, we investigate the prospects of gravitational-wave (GW) detections for NS-WD mergers, with the help of early warnings from two space-borne decihertz GW observatories, DO-Optimal and DECIGO. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Yunxiang Li, Bowen Jing, Xiang Feng, Zihan Li, Yongbo He | Summary: The recent developments of foundation models in computer vision, especially the Segment Anything Model (SAM), allow scalable and domain-agnostic image segmentation to serve as a general-purpose segmentation tool. In parallel, the field of medical image […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Yuxiang Zhang, Zhuo Li, Jingze Lu, Wenchao Wang, Pengyuan Zhang | Summary: Current synthetic speech detection (SSD) methods perform well on certain datasets but still face issues of robustness and interpretability. A possible reason is that these methods do not analyze the deficiencies of synthetic speech. In […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Chi Zhang, Xiang Zhang, Mingyuan Lin, Cheng Li, Chu He | Summary: Even though the collaboration between traditional and neuromorphic event cameras brings prosperity to frame-event based vision applications, the performance is still confined by the resolution gap crossing two modalities in both spatial and temporal domains. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Chao-Jun Feng, Towe Wang, , | Summary: To explore the feasibility of utilizing black hole images to test the cosmological constant, we have developed a comprehensive analytical method for simulating images of Kerr-de Sitter black holes illuminated by equatorial thin accretion disks. Our findings indicate […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric D. Miller, Ralf K. Heilmann | First 5 Authors: Hans Moritz Günther, Peter Cheimets, Eric D. Miller, Casey DeRoo, Randall K. Smith | Summary: Arcus is a concept for a probe class mission to deliver high-resolution FUV and X-ray spectroscopy. For X-rays, it combines cost-effective silicon pore optics (SPO) with high-throughput critical-angle […]
