JADES — The small blue bump in GN-z11: insights into the nuclear region of a galaxy at z=10.6

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Xihan Ji, Xihan Ji, , , | Summary: We report the detection of continuum excess in the rest-frame UV between 3000 AA and 3550 AA in the JWST/NIRSpec spectrum of GN-z11, a luminous galaxy $z=10.603$. The shape of the continuum excess resembles a Balmer continuum but has […]

Direct observation of the neural computations underlying a single decision

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Shadlen | Authors: Natalie A Steinemann, Gabriel M Stine, Eric M Trautmann, Ariel Zylberberg, Daniel M Wolpert and Michael N Shadlen | Summary: Neurobiological investigations of perceptual decision-making have furnished the first glimpse of a flexible cognitive process at the level of single neurons (Shadlen and Newsome, 1996; Shadlen and Kiani, 2013). […]

Accelerated quenching and chemical enhancement of massive galaxies in a $zsim4$ gas-rich halo

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: Stars in galaxies form when baryons radiatively cool down and fall into gravitational wells whose mass is dominated by dark matter. Eventually, star formation quenches as gas is depleted and/or perturbed by feedback processes, no longer being able to collapse and […]

A recurrent network model of planning explains hippocampal replay and human behavior

Kavli Affiliate: Marcelo Mattar | Authors: Kristopher T. Jensen, Guillaume Hennequin and Marcelo G. Mattar | Summary: When interacting with complex environments, humans can rapidly adapt their behavior to changes in task or context. To facilitate this adaptation, we often spend substantial periods of time contemplating possible futures before acting. For such planning to be […]

Widespread Receptive Field Remapping in Early Visual Cortex

Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy | Authors: Sachira Denagamage, Mitchell P Morton and Anirvan Nandy | Summary: Our eyes are in constant motion, yet we perceive the visual world as being stable. Predictive remapping of receptive fields is thought to be one of the critical mechanisms for enforcing perceptual stability during eye movements. While receptive field […]

The representational geometry of emotional states in basolateral amygdala

Kavli Affiliate: Stefano Fusi, Daniel Salzman | Authors: Pia-Kelsey O’Neill, Lorenzo Posani, Jozsef Meszaros, Phebe Warren, Carl E. Schoonover, Andrew J.P. Fink, Stefano Fusi and C. Daniel Salzman | Summary: Sensory stimuli associated with aversive outcomes can cause multiple behavioral responses related to an animal’s evolving emotional state. We employed chemogenetic inactivation and two-photon imaging […]
