Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | First 5 Authors: Daniel Mas Montserrat, Carlos Bustamante, Alexander Ioannidis, , | Summary: Local-ancestry inference (LAI), also referred to as ancestry deconvolution, provides high-resolution ancestry estimation along the human genome. In both research and industry, LAI is emerging as a critical step in DNA sequence analysis with applications extending from […]

Kavli Affiliate: D. B. Macfarlane | First 5 Authors: BaBar Collaboration, J. P. Lees, V. Poireau, V. Tisserand, E. Grauges | Summary: We present a search for seven lepton-flavor-violating neutral charm decays of the type $D^{0}rightarrow X^{0} e^{pm} mu^{mp}$, where $X^{0}$ represents a $pi^{0}$, $K^{0}_{rm S}$, $bar{K^{*0}}$, $rho^{0}$, $phi$, $omega$, or $eta$ meson. The analysis […]
Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Giordano Scappucci, Christoph Kloeffel, Floris A. Zwanenburg, Daniel Loss, Maksym Myronov | Summary: In the worldwide endeavor for disruptive quantum technologies, germanium is emerging as a versatile material to realize devices capable of encoding, processing, or transmitting quantum information. These devices leverage special properties of the germanium […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. A. Shutt | First 5 Authors: D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo, X. Bai, J. Balajthy | Summary: Dual-phase xenon detectors, as currently used in direct detection dark matter experiments, have observed elevated rates of background electron events in the low energy region. While this background negatively impacts detector performance […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gabor Furesz | First 5 Authors: Veselin B. Kostov, Jerome A. Orosz, Adina D. Feinstein, William F. Welsh, Wolf Cukier | Summary: We report the detection of the first circumbinary planet found by TESS. The target, a known eclipsing binary, was observed in sectors 1 through 12 at 30-minute cadence and in sectors […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hector D. Abruna | First 5 Authors: Matej Velicky, Alvaro Rodriguez, Milan Bousa, Andrey V. Krayev, Martin Vondracek | Summary: Gold-mediated exfoliation of MoS2 has attracted considerable interest in the recent years. A strong interaction between MoS2 and Au facilitates preferential production of centimeter-sized monolayer MoS2 with near-unity yield and provides a heterostructure […]

Kavli Affiliate: Christopher Burke | First 5 Authors: Ryan Cloutier, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Jonathan Irwin, David Charbonneau, Keivan G. Stassun | Summary: Small planets on close-in orbits tend to exhibit envelope mass fractions of either effectively zero or up to a few percent depending on their size and orbital period. Models of thermally-driven atmospheric mass […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herre Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Achim Harzheim, Fabian Könemann, Bernd Gotsmann, Herre van der Zant, Pascal Gehring | Summary: On-chip temperature sensing on a micro- to nanometer scale is becoming more desirable as the complexity of nanodevices and size requirements increase and with it the challenges in thermal probing and […]
