Kavli Affiliate: Daniel S. Akerib | First 5 Authors: Jodi Cooley, Tongyan Lin, W. Hugh Lippincott, Tracy R. Slatyer, Tien-Tien Yu | Summary: This report summarizes the findings of the CF1 Topical Subgroup to Snowmass 2021, which was focused on particle dark matter. One of the most important scientific goals of the next decade is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: Yunchong Zhang, Brian Nord, Amanda Pagul, Michael Lepori, | Summary: In observational astronomy, noise obscures signals of interest. Large-scale astronomical surveys are growing in size and complexity, which will produce more data and increase the workload of data processing. Developing automated tools, such as convolutional neural networks […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Salvatore Vitale, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Colm Talbot, , | Summary: The growing set of gravitational-wave sources is being used to measure the properties of the underlying astrophysical populations of compact objects, black holes and neutron stars. Most of the detected systems are black hole binaries. While much has […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Huan Wang, Yadong Jiang, Zhaochen Liu, Jing Wang, | Summary: Topological flat bands at the Fermi level offer a promising platform to study a variety of intriguing correlated phase of matter. Here we present band engineering in the twisted orbital-active bilayers with spin-orbit coupling. The symmetry constraints […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Maria I. Bernardos | Summary: Blazars are active galactic nuclei that launch collimated, powerful jets of magnetized relativistic plasma. Their primary jet, whose emission typically spans from low-frequency radio to very high-energy ($gtrsim0.1$ TeV) $gamma$-rays (Blandford […]

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Maria I. Bernardos | Summary: Most of the light from blazars, active galactic nuclei with jets of magnetized plasma that point nearly along the line of sight, is produced by high-energy particles, up to $sim 1$ […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Yukinobu Toda, , , | Summary: Quasi-BPS categories appear as summands in semiorthogonal decompositions of DT categories for Hilbert schemes of points in the three dimensional affine space and in the categorical Hall algebra of the two dimensional affine space. In this paper, we prove […]
