Kavli Affiliate: Cees Dekker | First 5 Authors: Sabina Caneva, Matthijs D. Hermans, Martin Lee, Amador Garcia-Fuente, Kenji Watanabe | Summary: Graphene quantum dots (QDs) are intensively studied as platforms for the next generation of quantum electronic devices. Fine tuning of the transport properties in monolayer graphene QDs, in particular with respect to the independent […]
Kavli Affiliate: J. S. Villasenor | First 5 Authors: Fernando Barbero G., Juan Margalef-Bentabol, Eduardo J. S. Villaseñor, , | Summary: We give a new identity involving Bernoulli polynomials and combinatorial numbers. This provides, in particular, a Faulhaber-like formula for sums of the form $1^m (n-1)^m + 2^m (n-2)^m + cdots + (n-1)^m 1^m$ for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Slawomir Gras | First 5 Authors: Rana X Adhikari, Odylio Aguiar, Koji Arai, Bryan Barr, Riccardo Bassiri | Summary: The detection of gravitational waves from compact binary mergers by LIGO has opened the era of gravitational wave astronomy, revealing a previously hidden side of the cosmos. To maximize the reach of the existing […]

Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Laura Kim, Seyoon Kim, Pankaj K. Jha, Victor W. Brar, Harry A. Atwater | Summary: The decay dynamics of excited carriers in graphene have attracted wide scientific attention, as the gapless Dirac electronic band structure opens up relaxation channels that are not allowed in conventional materials. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Enrico Barausse, Emanuele Berti, Thomas Hertog, Scott A. Hughes, Philippe Jetzer | Summary: In this paper, which is of programmatic rather than quantitative nature, we aim to further delineate and sharpen the future potential of the LISA mission in the area of fundamental physics. Given the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Brittany J. Fuzia, Lalitwadee Kawinwanichakij, Nicola Mehrtens, Simone Aiola, Nicholas Battaglia | Summary: We examine the stacked thermal Sunyaev-Zeltext{‘}dovich (SZ) signals for a sample of galaxy cluster candidates from the Spitzer-HETDEX Exploratory Large Area (SHELA) Survey, which are identified in combined optical and infrared SHELA data using […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert L. Byer | First 5 Authors: Zhexin Zhao, Dylan S. Black, R. Joel England, Tyler W. Hughes, Yu Miao | Summary: To be useful for most scientific and medical applications, compact particle accelerators will require much higher average current than enabled by current architectures. For this purpose, we propose a photonic crystal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Laura Schaefer | First 5 Authors: Edwin S. Kite, Bruce Fegley Jr., Laura Schaefer, Eric Ford, | Summary: Planets with 2 $R_{oplus}$ < $R$ < 3 $R_{oplus}$ and orbital period $<$100 d are abundant; these sub-Neptune exoplanets are not well understood. For example, $Kepler$ sub-Neptunes are likely to have deep magma oceans in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Yukinobu Toda, , , , | Summary: We show that the categorified cohomological Hall algebra structures on surfaces constructed by Porta-Sala descend to those on Donaldson-Thomas categories on local surfaces introduced in the author’s previous paper. A similar argument also shows that Pandharipande-Thomas categories on local surfaces […]
