HERBS: Histological E-data Registration in rodent Brain Spaces

Kavli Affiliate: Jonathan Whitlock, Jingyi Guo, Pearl Saldanha | Authors: Jingyi Guo Fuglstad, Pearl Saldanha, Jacopo Paglia and Jonathan R. Whitlock | Summary: Abstract Recording technologies for rodents have seen huge advances in the last decade, allowing users to sample thousands of neurons simultaneously from multiple brain regions. This has prompted the need for digital […]

Mysterious Dust-emitting Object Orbiting TIC 400799224

Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Brian P. Powell, Veselin Kostov, Saul Rappaport, Andrei Tokovinin, Avi Shporer | Summary: We report the discovery of a unique object of uncertain nature — but quite possibly a disintegrating asteroid or minor planet — orbiting one star of the widely separated binary TIC 400799224. We initially […]

Cerberus: Query-driven Scalable Vulnerability Detection in OAuth Service Provider Implementations

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Tamjid Al Rahat, Yu Feng, Yuan Tian, , | Summary: OAuth protocols have been widely adopted to simplify user authentication and service authorization for third-party applications. However, little effort has been devoted to automatically checking the security of the libraries that service providers widely use. In this […]

Piezo-deformable Mirrors for Active Mode Matching in Advanced LIGO

Kavli Affiliate: Peter Fritschel | First 5 Authors: Varun Srivastava, Georgia Mansell, Camille Makarem, Minkyun Noh, Richard Abbott | Summary: The detectors of the laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory (LIGO) are broadly limited by the quantum noise and rely on the injection of squeezed states of light to achieve their full sensitivity. Squeezing improvement is limited […]

Core-collapse, evaporation and tidal effects: the life story of a self-interacting dark matter subhalo

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Zhichao Carton Zeng, Annika H. G. Peter, Xiaolong Du, Andrew Benson, Stacy Kim | Summary: Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) cosmologies admit an enormous diversity of dark matter (DM) halo density profiles, from low-density cores to high-density core-collapsed cusps. The possibility of the growth of high central density […]
