Investigating model dependencies for obscured Active Galactic Nuclei: a case study of NGC 3982

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: KristĂ­na Kallová, Peter G. Boorman, Claudio Ricci, , | Summary: X-ray spectroscopy of heavily obscured Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) offers a unique opportunity to study the circum-nuclear environment of accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs). However, individual models describing the obscurer have unique parameter spaces that give distinct […]

Strength Lies in Differences! Towards Effective Non-collaborative Dialogues via Tailored Strategy Planning

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Tong Zhang, Chen Huang, Yang Deng, Hongru Liang, Jia Liu | Summary: We investigate non-collaborative dialogue agents that must engage in tailored strategic planning for diverse users to secure a favorable agreement. This poses challenges for existing dialogue agents due to two main reasons: their inability to […]

Strength Lies in Differences! Towards Effective Non-collaborative Dialogues via Tailored Strategy Planning

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Tong Zhang, Chen Huang, Yang Deng, Hongru Liang, Jia Liu | Summary: We investigate non-collaborative dialogue agents, which are expected to engage in strategic conversations with diverse users, for securing a mutual agreement that leans favorably towards the system’s objectives. This poses two main challenges for existing […]

QCD at 50: Golden Anniversary, Golden Insights, Golden Opportunities

Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Frank Wilczek, , , , | Summary: The bulk of this paper centers around the tension between confinement and freedom in QCD. I discuss how it can be understood heuristically as a manifestation of self-adhesive glue and how it fits within the larger contexts of energy-time uncertainty […]

The NIRSpec Wide GTO Survey

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Michael V. Maseda, Anna de Graaff, Marijn Franx, Hans-Walter Rix, Stefano Carniani | Summary: The Near-infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) on the James Webb Space Telescope is uniquely suited to studying galaxies in the distant Universe with its combination of multi-object capabilities and sensitivity over a large range in […]

Superconductivity in Two-Dimentional Systems with Unconventional Rashba Bands

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Ran Wang, Jiayang Li, Xinliang Huang, Rui Song, Ning Hao | Summary: In two-dimensional system with Rashba spin-orbit coupling, it is well-known that superconductivity can have mixed spin-singlet and -triplet parity, and the $boldsymbol{d}$-vector of spin-tripet pairing is parallel to $boldsymbol{g}$-vector of Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Here, we […]

Superconductivity in Two-Dimensional Systems with Unconventional Rashba Bands

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Ran Wang, Jiayang Li, Xinliang Huang, Lichuan Wang, Rui Song | Summary: In two-dimensional systems with Rashba spin-orbit coupling, it is well-known that superconductivity can exhibit mixed spin-singlet and spin-triplet parity, with the $boldsymbol{d}$-vector of spin-triplet pairing aligning parallel to the $boldsymbol{g}$-vector of Rashba spin-orbit coupling. In […]
