A massive hot Jupiter orbiting a metal-rich early-M star discovered in the TESS full frame images

Kavli Affiliate: George R. Ricker | First 5 Authors: Tianjun Gan, Charles Cadieux, Farbod Jahandar, Allona Vazan, Sharon X. Wang | Summary: Observations and statistical studies have shown that giant planets are rare around M dwarfs compared with Sun-like stars. The formation mechanism of these extreme systems remains under debate for decades. With the help […]

Ventral pallidum GABA and glutamate neurons drive approach and avoidance through distinct modulation of VTA cell types

Kavli Affiliate: Andrea Hasenstaub | Authors: David A. McCormick, Yousheng Shu and Andrea R Hasenstaub | Summary: The ventral pallidum (VP) contains GABA and glutamate (Glut) neurons projecting to ventral tegmental area (VTA) whose stimulation drives approach and avoidance, respectively. Yet little is known about the cell-type-specific mechanisms by which VP projections to VTA drive […]

The h-current controls cortical recurrent network activity through modulation of dendrosomatic communication

Kavli Affiliate: Andrea Hasenstaub | Authors: David A. McCormick, Yousheng Shu and Andrea R Hasenstaub | Summary: A fundamental feature of the cerebral cortex is the ability to rapidly turn on and off maintained activity within ensembles of neurons through recurrent excitation balanced by inhibition. Here we demonstrate that reduction of the h-current, which is […]

Resolving Non-identifiability Mitigates Bias in Models of Neural Tuning and Functional Coupling

Kavli Affiliate: Kristofer Bouchard, Loren Frank, Christoph Kirst | Authors: Pratik Sachdeva, Ji Hyun Bak, Jesse A Livezey, Loren Frank, Christoph Kirst, Sharmodeep Bhattacharyya and Kristofer Bouchard | Summary: In the brain, all neurons are driven by the activity of other neurons, some of which maybe simultaneously recorded, but most are not. As such, models […]

An Exploration of AGN and Stellar Feedback Effects in the Intergalactic Medium via the Low Redshift Lyman-$α$ Forest

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Megan Taylor Tillman, Blakesley Burkhart, Stephanie Tonnesen, Simeon Bird, Greg L. Bryan | Summary: We explore the role of galactic feedback on the low redshift Lyman-$alpha$ (Ly$alpha$)~forest ($z lesssim 2$) statistics and its potential to alter the thermal state of the intergalactic medium. Using the Cosmology and […]

Multimodal Operando X-ray Mechanistic Studies of a Bimetallic Oxide Electrocatalyst in Alkaline Media

Kavli Affiliate: Hector D. Abruna | First 5 Authors: Jason J. Huang, Yao Yang, Daniel Weinstock, Colin R. Bundschu, Jacob P. C. Ruff | Summary: Furthering the understanding of the catalytic mechanisms in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is critical to advancing and enabling fuel cell technology. In this work, we use multimodal operando synchrotron […]

Rethinking Mitosis Detection: Towards Diverse Data and Feature Representation

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Hao Wang, Jiatai Lin, Danyi Li, Jing Wang, Bingchao Zhao | Summary: Mitosis detection is one of the fundamental tasks in computational pathology, which is extremely challenging due to the heterogeneity of mitotic cell. Most of the current studies solve the heterogeneity in the technical aspect by […]
