Kavli Affiliate: Deepto Chakrabarty | First 5 Authors: Yash Bhargava, Mason Ng, Liang Zhang, Arvind Balasubramanian, Thomas D. Russell | Summary: We present the discovery of X-ray polarization from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary and Z-source, GX~340$+$0, using an Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observation in March 2024. Along with the IXPE observation, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Leon Shaposhnikov, Eduardo Barredo-Alamilla, Frank Wilczek, Maxim A. Gorlach, | Summary: Spatial structuring of materials at subwavelength scales underlies the concept of metamaterials possessing exotic properties beyond those of the constituent media. Temporal modulation of material parameters enables further functionalities. Here, we show that high-frequency oscillations of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Xiaoman Delores Ding, Zifan Carl Guo, Eric J. Michaud, Ziming Liu, Max Tegmark | Summary: When a neural network can learn multiple distinct algorithms to solve a task, how does it "choose" between them during training? To approach this question, we take inspiration from ecology: when multiple […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ralf K. Heilmann | First 5 Authors: Ralf K. Heilmann, Alexander R. Bruccoleri, James A. Gregory, Eric M. Gullikson, Hans Moritz Günther | Summary: The Arcus Probe mission concept has been submitted as an Astrophysics Probe Explorer candidate. It features two co-aligned high-resolution grating spectrometers: one for the soft x-ray band and one […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Nasser Mohammed, Anna Ordog, Rebecca A. Booth, Andrea Bracco, Jo-Anne C. Brown | Summary: A direct consequence of Faraday rotation is that the polarized radio sky does not resemble the total intensity sky at long wavelengths. We analyze G137+7, which is undetectable in total intensity but […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: William Lake, Claire E. Williams, Smadar Naoz, Federico Marinacci, Blakesley Burkhart | Summary: At high redshifts ($zgtrsim12$), the relative velocity between baryons and dark matter (the so-called streaming velocity) significantly affects star formation in low-mass objects. Streaming substantially reduces the abundance of low-mass gas objects while simultaneously […]
