Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Emil J. Martinec, Yoav Zigdon, , , | Summary: We investigate quantum fluctuations of metric components in coherent 1/2-BPS bound states of $n_1$ fundamental strings and $n_5$ NS5-branes. The leading order contribution in an expansion in $1/(n_1n_5)$ is calculated via a combination of analytical and numerical […]

Kavli Affiliate: Emil J. Martinec | First 5 Authors: Emil J. Martinec, Yoav Zigdon, , , | Summary: We study ensembles of 1/2-BPS bound states of fundamental strings and NS-fivebranes (NS5-F1 states) in the AdS decoupling limit. We revisit a solution corresponding to an ensemble average of these bound states, and find that the appropriate […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhaochen Liu, Linghao Huang, Jing Wang, , | Summary: We investigate the Josephson diode effect in topological Josephson junctions. We find that while a Josephson junction in the topological phase may exhibit higher diode efficiency compared to that in the trivial phase, this behavior is not universal. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhaochen Liu, Linghao Huang, Jing Wang, , | Summary: We investigate the Josephson diode effect (JDE) in topological Josephson junctions. By both analytic and numerical calculations, we find that while a Josephson junction in the topological phase may exhibit higher diode efficiency compared to that in the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Wanqiu He, Masayuki Akiyama, Motohiro Enoki, Kohei Ichikawa, Kohei Inayoshi | Summary: We investigate the black hole mass function (BHMF) and Eddington ratio distribution function (ERDF) of broad-line AGNs at z=4, based on a sample of 52 quasars with i<23.2 at 3.50 < z < 4.25 from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Xunchuan Liu, Tie Liu, Lei Zhu, Guido Garay, Hong-Li Liu | Summary: This paper presents an overview of the QUARKS survey, which stands for `Querying Underlying mechanisms of massive star formation with ALMA-Resolved gas Kinematics and Structures’. The QUARKS survey is observing 139 massive clumps covered by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Zi Yin, Wei Ding, Jia Liu, , | Summary: Large Language Models (LLMs) are central to a multitude of applications but struggle with significant risks, notably in generating harmful content and biases. Drawing an analogy to the human psyche’s conflict between evolutionary survival instincts and societal norm […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, Wen-Sheng Zhao, Yue Hu, R. N. Costa Filho, Francois M. Peeters | Summary: The interplay between a magnetic field and the Coulomb potential from a charged vacancy on the electron states in graphene is investigated within the tight-binding model. The Coulomb potential removes locally Landau […]
