EOS-dependent millihertz quasi-periodic oscillation in low-mass X-ray binary

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Helei Liu, Yong Gao, Zhaosheng Li, Akira Dohi, Weiyang Wang | Summary: We studied the frequency and critical mass accretion rate of millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations (mHz QPOs) using a one-zone X-ray burst model. The surface gravity is specified by two kinds of equation of states: neutron star […]

Erythroid differentiation dependent interaction of VPS13A with XK at the plasma membrane of K562 cells

Kavli Affiliate: Pietro De Camilli | Authors: Chase Amos, Peng Xu and Pietro De Camilli | Summary: Mutations of the bridge-like lipid transport protein VPS13A and of the lipid scramblase XK result in Chorea Acanthocytosis (ChAc) and McLeod syndrome (MLS) respectively, two similar conditions involving neurodegeneration and deformed erythrocytes (acanthocytes). VPS13A binds XK, suggesting a […]

Sex Differences in Human Music Perception are Negligible

Kavli Affiliate: Sarah Woolley | Authors: Mila Bertolo, Daniel Müllensiefen, Isabelle Peretz, Sarah C. Woolley, Jon T. Sakata and Samuel A. Mehr | Summary: Since Darwin1, researchers have proposed that human musicality evolved in a reproductive context in which males produce music to signal their mate quality to females. Sexually selected traits involve tradeoffs in […]

Two of a Kind: Comparing big and small black holes in binaries with gravitational waves

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Amanda M. Farah, Maya Fishbach, Daniel E. Holz, , | Summary: When modeling the population of merging binary black holes, analyses generally focus on characterizing the distribution of primary (i.e. more massive) black holes in the binary, while simplistic prescriptions are used for the distribution of […]

Measurement of branching-fraction ratios and $CP$ asymmetries in $B^{pm} to D_{CPpm}K^{pm}$ decays at Belle and Belle II

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: The Belle, Belle II Collaborations, :, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal | Summary: We report results from a study of $B^pm rightarrow DK^pm$ decays followed by $D$ decaying to $CP$~eigenstates, where $D$ indicates a $D^0$ or $bar{D}^{0}$ meson. These decays are sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa unitarity-triangle angle $phi_{3}$. […]

Adaptor Protein-3 Produces Synaptic Vesicles that Release Phasic Dopamine

Kavli Affiliate: Alexandra Nelson, Robert Edwards | Authors: Shweta Jain, Andrew G Yee, James Maas, Sarah Gierok, Hongfei Xu, Jasmine Stansil, Jacob Eriksen, Alexandra Nelson, Katlin Silm, Christopher P Ford and Robert H Edwards | Summary: The burst firing of midbrain dopamine neurons releases a phasic dopamine signal that mediates reinforcement learning. At many synapses, […]

Limitations of fluorescent timer proteins toward isolation of developmentally and transcriptionally synchronized populations of human pluripotent stem cells and neural progenitors highlight unique expression and fluorescence maturation kinetics by human cells

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Shipman | Authors: Manuel Peter, Seth Shipman, Jeffrey D. Macklis | Summary: Differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) into distinct neuronal populations holds substantial potential for disease modeling in vitro, toward both elucidation of pathobiological mechanisms and screening of potential therapeutic agents. For successful differentiation of hPSCs into subtype-specific neurons using […]

When Super-Resolution Meets Camouflaged Object Detection: A Comparison Study

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Juan Wen, Shupeng Cheng, Peng Xu, Bowen Zhou, Radu Timofte | Summary: Super Resolution (SR) and Camouflaged Object Detection (COD) are two hot topics in computer vision with various joint applications. For instance, low-resolution surveillance images can be successively processed by super-resolution techniques and camouflaged object detection. […]
