Kavli Affiliate: Ankit Disa | First 5 Authors: Alexandru B. Georgescu, Oleg E. Peil, Ankit Disa, Antoine Georges, Andrew J. Millis | Summary: In complex oxide materials, changes in electronic properties are often associated with changes in crystal structure, raising the question of the relative roles of the electronic and lattice effects in driving the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Larry Coldren | First 5 Authors: Weiqiang Xie, Jinxi Huang, Tin Komljenovic, Larry Coldren, John Bowers | Summary: In this paper, we demonstrate a radiation-strength-chirped metasurface centimeter-long grating antenna, whose beam quality is approaching the diffraction limit in its footprint with 90 percent efficiency.Instead of chirping the duty cycle to tune radiation strength, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Donald G. York | First 5 Authors: Ryan J. Oelkers, Lucas M. Macri, Lifan Wang, Michael C. B. Ashley, Xiangqun Cui | Summary: The Chinese Small Telescope ARray (CSTAR) carried out high-cadence time-series observations of 20.1 square degrees centered on the South Celestial Pole during the 2008, 2009 & 2010 winter seasons from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Juan I. Collar | First 5 Authors: Craig E. Aalseth, Juan I. Collar, Jim Colaresi, James E. Fast, Todd W. Hossbach | Summary: Recent progress on the development of very low noise high purity germanium ionization spectrometers has produced an instrument of 1.2 kg mass and excellent noise performance. The detector was installed […]
Kavli Affiliate: Larry Coldren | First 5 Authors: Cristian Antonelli, Antonio Mecozzi, Wangzhe Li, Larry Coldren, | Summary: We present a model for multi-wavelength mixing in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) based on coupled-mode equations. The proposed model applies to all kinds of SOA structures, takes into account the longitudinal dependence of carrier density caused by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Larry Coldren | First 5 Authors: Morten P. Bakker, Thomas Ruytenberg, Wolfgang Loffler, Ajit V. Barve, Larry Coldren | Summary: In an oxide apertured quantum dot (QD) micropillar cavity-QED system, we found strong QD hysteresis effects and lineshape modifications even at very low intensities corresponding to less than 0.001 intracavity photons. We attribute […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joshua A. Frieman | First 5 Authors: Masao Sako, Bruce Bassett, Andrew C. Becker, Peter J. Brown, Heather Campbell | Summary: This paper describes the data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Survey conducted between 2005 and 2007. Light curves, spectra, classifications, and ancillary data are presented for 10,258 variable […]

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua A. Frieman | First 5 Authors: Henrique S. Xavier, Ravi R. Gupta, Masao Sako, Chris B. D’Andrea, Joshua A. Frieman | Summary: We used the GMBCG galaxy cluster catalogue and SDSS-II supernovae data with redshifts measured by the BOSS project to identify 48 SNe Ia residing in rich galaxy clusters and compare […]
Kavli Affiliate: Craig J. Hogan | First 5 Authors: Craig J. Hogan, , , , | Summary: A model quantum system is proposed to describe position states of a massive body in flat space on large scales, excluding all standard quantum and gravitational degrees of freedom. The model is based on standard quantum spin commutators, […]
