Kavli Affiliate: Robert Edwards | Authors: Michael J. Roach, Sarah Beecroft, Kathie Mihindukulasuriya, Leran Wang, Lais Farias Oliveira Lima, Elizabeth A. Dinsdale, Robert Edwards and Scott Allyn Handley | Summary: Analysis of viral diversity using modern nucleic acid sequencing technologies presents several unique challenges. Foremost being that virus detection requires a non-targeted, random (shotgun) approach. […]

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Bethan A. Williams, Daniel L. Walker, Steven N. Longmore, A. T. Barnes, Cara Battersby | Summary: Young massive clusters (YMCs) are compact ($lesssim$1 pc), high-mass (>10${}^4$ M${}_{odot}$) stellar systems of significant scientific interest. Due to their rarity and rapid formation, we have very few examples of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Qi Lu, Yalei Zhu, Jing Zhao, Rostyslav Danylo | Summary: Quantum interference occurs frequently in the interaction of laser radiation with materials, leading to a series of fascinating effects such as lasing without inversion, electromagnetically induced transparency, Fano resonance, etc. Such quantum interference effects are […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anthony Lasenby | Summary:We investigate the effects of non-zero spatial curvature on cosmic inflation in the light of cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy measurements from the Planck 2018 legacy release and from the 2015 observing season of BICEP2 and the Keck Array. Even a small percentage of non-zero curvature today would significantly limit […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Yihang Zeng, Zhengchao Xia, Roei Dery, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Strongly correlated bosons in a lattice are a platform to realize rich bosonic states of matter and quantum phase transitions. While strongly correlated bosons in a lattice have been studied in cold-atom experiments, their realization […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jessica Cardin | Authors: Quentin Perrenoud, Antonio H. de O. Fonseca, Austin Airhart, James Bonanno, Rong Mao and Jessica A Cardin | Summary: Although behaviorally relevant patterns of neocortical activity in specific frequency bands have been broadly characterized, identifying individual underlying network events remains a key challenge in understanding information processing in cortical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kira Poskanzer | Authors: Kira Poskanzer, Trisha V Vaidyanathan, Vincent Tse and Esther M Lim | Summary: Astrocytes perform critical functions in the nervous system, many of which are dependent on neurotransmitter-sensing through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). However, whether specific astrocytic outputs follow specific GPCR activity remains unclear, and exploring this question is […]
