Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Rui Zong, Martin Liang, Yuntian Fang, Ke Wang, Xiaoshuai Chen | Summary: Knee-less bipedal robots like SLIDER have the advantage of ultra-lightweight legs and improved walking energy efficiency compared to traditional humanoid robots. In this paper, we firstly introduce an improved hardware design of the bipedal robot […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Omaira González-Martín, Daniel J. Díaz-González, Mariela Martínez-Paredes, Almudena Alonso-Herrero, Enrique López-Rodríguez | Summary: We investigate the capabilities of the mid-infrared instrument (MIRI) of James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to advance our knowledge of AGN dust using the spectral fitting technique on an AGN collection of 21 nearby […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Filippo Barbani, Raffaele Pascale, Federico Marinacci, Paul Torrey, Laura V. Sales | Summary: Galaxies are not isolated systems; they continuously interact with their surroundings by ejecting gas via stellar feedback and accreting gas from the environment. Understanding the interplay between outflows from the disc and the surrounding […]
Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Hongxing Chen, Snežana Stanimirović, Nickolas M. Pingel, James Dempsey, Frances Buckland-Willis | Summary: Cold neutral hydrogen (HI) is a crucial precursor for molecular gas formation and can be studied via HI absorption. This study investigates HI absorption in low column density regions of the Small and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Peng Yang, Junji Ren, Feng Wang, Ke Tang, | Summary: The fidelity of financial market simulation is restricted by the so-called "non-identifiability" difficulty when calibrating high-frequency data. This paper first analyzes the inherent loss of data information in this difficulty, and proposes to use the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Boyuan Liu, Daniel Kessler, Thomas Gessey-Jones, Jiten Dhandha, Anastasia Fialkov | Summary: The first generation of stars, known as Population III (Pop III), played a crucial role in the early Universe through their unique formation environment and metal-free composition. These stars can undergo chemically homogeneous evolution (CHE) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Weichen Kong, Yanwei Dai, Xiang Zhang, Yinghua Liu, | Summary: Creep failure under high temperatures is a complex multiscale and multi-mechanism issue involving inherent microstructural randomness. To investigate the effect of microstructures on the uniaxial/multiaxial creep failure, a dual-scale stochastic analysis framework is established to introduce the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kejia Lee | First 5 Authors: Xiaohui Liu, Heng Xu, Jiarui Niu, Yongkun Zhang, Jinchen Jiang | Summary: Fast radio bursts (FRBs), typically highly polarized, usually have a nearly constant polarization position angle (PA) during each burst. Some bursts show significant PA variations, and one of them was claimed to have a PA […]
Kavli Affiliate: Attila Losonczy | Authors: Stephanie A Herrlinger, Jiayao Wang, Bovey Y Rao, Jonathan Chang, Joseph Gogos, Attila Losonczy and Dennis Vitkup | Summary: Neuropsychiatric disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) share genetic risk factors, including rare high penetrance single nucleotide variants and copy number variants (CNVs), and exhibit both […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Stephen E. Gant, Antonios M. Alvertis, Christopher J. N. Coveney, Jonah B. Haber, Marina R. Filip | Summary: Monoclinic bismuth vanadate (m-BiVO$_4$) is a promising indirect band gap semiconductor for photoelectrochemical water splitting, yet the characteristics of its low-lying photoexcitations, or excitons, remain poorly understood. Here, […]
