Improved noise performance from the next-generation buried-channel p-Mosfet SiSeROs

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory Prigozhin | First 5 Authors: Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Sven Herrmann, Matthew Kaplan, Peter Orel, Kevan Donlon | Summary: The Single electron Sensitive Read Out (SiSeRO) is a novel on-chip charge detector output stage for charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensors. Developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, this technology uses a p-MOSFET transistor with a depleted […]

Emergent axion response in multilayered metamaterials

Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Leon Shaposhnikov, Maxim Mazanov, Daniel A. Bobylev, Frank Wilczek, Maxim A. Gorlach | Summary: We consider the design of metamaterials whose behavior embodies the equations of axion electrodynamics. We derive an effective medium description of an assembly of magneto-optical layers with out-of-plane magnetization analytically and show how […]

Validating AU Microscopii d with Transit Timing Variations

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Justin M. Wittrock, Peter Plavchan, Bryson L. Cale, Thomas Barclay, Mathis R. Ludwig | Summary: AU Mic is a young (22 Myr) nearby exoplanetary system that exhibits excess TTVs that cannot be accounted for by the two known transiting planets nor stellar activity. We present the statistical […]

Searching for Gravitational-Wave Counterparts using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Geoffrey Mo, Rahul Jayaraman, Michael Fausnaugh, Erik Katsavounidis, George R. Ricker | Summary: In 2017, the LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave (GW) detectors, in conjunction with electromagnetic (EM) astronomers, observed the first GW multi-messenger astrophysical event, the binary neutron star (BNS) merger GW170817. This marked the beginning […]
