Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Haoran Di, Lijing Shao, Zhu Yi, Shi-Bei Kong, | Summary: The Hubble constant, $H_0$, is a crucial parameter in cosmology. However, various cosmic observations have produced differing posterior values for $H_0$, resulting in what is referred to as the $H_0$ tension. To resolve this discrepancy, utilizing other […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jiansheng Chen | First 5 Authors: Yudong Zhang, Ruobing Xie, Jiansheng Chen, Xingwu Sun, Yu Wang | Summary: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have demonstrated their powerful multimodal capabilities. However, they also face serious safety problems, as adversaries can induce robustness issues in LVLMs through the use of well-designed adversarial examples. Therefore, LVLMs are […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Tiger Yu-Yang Hsiao, Michael W. Topping, Dan Coe, John Chisholm, Danielle A. Berg | Summary: Investigating the metal enrichment in the early universe helps us constrain theories about the first stars and study the ages of galaxies. The lensed galaxy MACS0647$-$JD at $z=10.17$ is the brightest galaxy […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bruce Macintosh | First 5 Authors: Vincent Chambouleyron, Mahawa Cissé, Maïssa Salama, Sebastiaan Haffert, Vincent Déo | Summary: The Zernike wavefront sensor (ZWFS) stands out as one of the most sensitive optical systems for measuring the phase of an incoming wavefront, reaching photon efficiencies close to the fundamental limit. This quality, combined with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, Ao Ma, Jiasong Feng, Dawei Leng, Yuhui Yin | Summary: The global self-attention mechanism in diffusion transformers involves redundant computation due to the sparse and redundant nature of visual information, and the attention map of tokens within a spatial window shows significant similarity. To address […]

Kavli Affiliate: Risa Wechsler | First 5 Authors: Mithi A. C. de los Reyes, Yasmeen Asali, Risa Wechsler, Marla Geha, Yao-Yuan Mao | Summary: The stellar masses of galaxies are measured using integrated light via several methods — however, few of these methods were designed for low-mass ($M_{star}lesssim10^{8}rm{M_{odot}}$) "dwarf" galaxies, whose properties (e.g., stochastic star […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Peizhong Ju, Haibo Yang, Jia Liu, Yingbin Liang, Ness Shroff | Summary: Federated Learning (FL) has gained significant popularity due to its effectiveness in training machine learning models across diverse sites without requiring direct data sharing. While various algorithms along with their optimization analyses have shown that […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Ricker | First 5 Authors: Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport, Brian Powell, Gerald Handler, Mark Omohundro | Summary: The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has enabled the discovery of numerous tidally tilted pulsators (TTPs), which are pulsating stars in close binaries where the presence of a tidal bulge has the effect of tilting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Laura Schaefer | First 5 Authors: Frances E. Rigby, Lorenzo Pica-Ciamarra, Måns Holmberg, Nikku Madhusudhan, Savvas Constantinou | Summary: The recent JWST detections of carbon-bearing molecules in a habitable-zone sub-Neptune have opened a new era in the study of low-mass exoplanets. The sub-Neptune regime spans a wide diversity of planetary interiors and atmospheres […]
