Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Yong Gao, Xiao-Yu Lai, Lijing Shao, Ren-Xin Xu, | Summary: The strong interactions at low energy scales determine the state of the supranuclear matter in the pulsar-like compact objects. It is proposed that the bulk strong matter could be composed of strangeons, which are quark clusters with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline N. Hewitt | First 5 Authors: Dara Storer, Joshua S. Dillon, Daniel C. Jacobs, Miguel F. Morales, Bryna J. Hazelton | Summary: We present a framework for identifying and flagging malfunctioning antennas in large radio interferometers. We outline two distinct categories of metrics designed to detect outliers along known failure modes of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Shumpei Masuda, Jacob Koenig, Gary A. Steele, , | Summary: Quantum information processing requires fast manipulations of quantum systems in order to overcome dissipative effects. We propose a method to accelerate quantum dynamics and obtain a target state in a shorter time relative to unmodified dynamics, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Risa H. Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Ethan O. Nadler, Arka Banerjee, Susmita Adhikari, Yao-Yuan Mao, Risa H. Wechsler | Summary: Given recent developments in our understanding of the Large Magellanic Cloud’s (LMC) impact on the Milky Way’s (MW) dark matter subhalo population, we compare the signatures of dark matter and baryonic physics […]
Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Emil J. Martinec, , , , | Summary: This companion paper to arXiv:2109.00065 explores the interpretation of $AdS_3/CFT_2$ duality for $k=(R_{AdS}/lstr)^2<1$ in terms of "non-critical little string theory". We review the underlying fivebrane structure of 1/2-BPS backgrounds for string theory in both the critical dimension and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Savdeep Sethi | First 5 Authors: Christian Ferko, Gautam Satishchandran, Savdeep Sethi, , | Summary: We develop a general formalism for treating radiative degrees of freedom near $mathscr{I}^{+}$ in theories with an arbitrary Ricci-flat internal space. These radiative modes are encoded in a generalized news tensor which decomposes into gravitational, electromagnetic, and scalar […]
Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Xiaokang Li, Shan Jiang, Qingkai Meng, Huakun Zuo, Zengwei Zhu | Summary: The magnetic free energy is usually quadratic in magnetic field and depends on the mutual orientation of the magnetic field and the crystalline axes. Tiny in magnitude, this magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy (MAE) is nevertheless indispensable […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Saumya Gupta, Jessy Jose, Surhud More, Swagat R. Das, Gregory J. Herczeg | Summary: Low mass star formation inside massive clusters is crucial to understand the effect of cluster environment on processes like circumstellar disk evolution, planet and brown dwarf formation. The young massive association of […]
Kavli Affiliate: David N. Spergel | First 5 Authors: Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro, Shy Genel, Daniel Angles-Alcazar, Leander Thiele, Romeel Dave | Summary: We present the Cosmology and Astrophysics with MachinE Learning Simulations (CAMELS) Multifield Dataset, CMD, a collection of hundreds of thousands of 2D maps and 3D grids containing many different properties of cosmic gas, dark […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daphna Shohamy | Authors: David L Barack, Akram Bakkour, Daphna Shohamy and C Daniel Salzman | Summary: Abstract In the real world, making sequences of decisions to achieve goals often depends upon the ability to learn aspects of the environment that are not directly perceptible. Learning these so-called latent features requires seeking information […]
