Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Joshua Engels, Eric J. Michaud, Isaac Liao, Wes Gurnee, Max Tegmark | Summary: Recent work has proposed that language models perform computation by manipulating one-dimensional representations of concepts ("features") in activation space. In contrast, we explore whether some language model representations may be inherently multi-dimensional. We begin […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Alexandra G. Hanselman, Aditya Vijaykumar, Maya Fishbach, Daniel E. Holz, | Summary: The discovery of GW170817 provided the first direct gravitational-wave measurement of the Hubble constant, $H_0$, demonstrating the potential power of standard-siren cosmology. The dark siren approach can be utilized for gravitational-wave sources in the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Alexandra G. Hanselman, Aditya Vijaykumar, Maya Fishbach, Daniel E. Holz, | Summary: The detection of GW170817 and the measurement of its redshift from the associated electromagnetic counterpart provided the first gravitational wave determination of the Hubble constant ($H_0$), demonstrating the potential power of standard-siren cosmology. In […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Charlotte Myers, Kishalay De, Lin Yan, Jacob E. Jencson, Nicholas Earley | Summary: While core-collapse supernovae (SNe) often show early and consistent signs of circumstellar (CSM) interaction, some exhibit delayed signatures due to interaction with distant material around the progenitor star. Here we present the discovery in […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Aihara | Summary: We present a measurement of the ratio $R_mu = mathcal{B}(tau^-to mu^-barnu_munu_tau) / mathcal{B}(tau^-to e^-barnu_enu_tau)$ of branching fractions $mathcal{B}$ of the $tau$ lepton decaying to muons or electrons using data collected with the Belle II […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roger W. Romani | First 5 Authors: Andrew G. Sullivan, Roger W. Romani, , , | Summary: PSR J2215+5135 (J2215) is a `redback’ spider pulsar, where the intrabinary shock (IBS) wraps around the pulsar rather than the stellar-mass companion. Spider orbital light curves are modulated, dominated by their binary companion thermal emission in […]

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Mittleman | First 5 Authors: Jiri Smetana, Amit Singh Ubhi, Emilia Chick, Leonid Prokhorov, John Bryant | Summary: We present a pair of seismometers capable of measurement in all six axes of rigid motion. The vacuum-compatible devices implement compact interferometric displacement sensors to surpass the sensitivity of typical electrical readout schemes. Together […]
