Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Robin Anthony-Petersen, Andreas Biekert, Raymond Bunker, Clarence L. Chang, Yen-Yung Chang | Summary: The performance of superconducting qubits is degraded by a poorly characterized set of energy sources breaking the Cooper pairs responsible for superconductivity, creating a condition often called “quasiparticle poisoning". Both superconducting qubits and low […]

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: D. C. Goldfinger, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri, D. Barkats | Summary: Observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background rely on cryogenic instrumentation with cold detectors, readout, and optics providing the low noise performance and instrumental stability required to make more sensitive measurements. It is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Clarke J. Esmerian, Nickolay Y. Gnedin, , , | Summary: We introduce a model for the explicit evolution of interstellar dust in a cosmological galaxy formation simulation. We post-process a simulation from the Cosmic Reionization on Computers project (CROC, Gnedin 2014), integrating an ordinary differential equation […]
Kavli Affiliate: Austin Joyce | First 5 Authors: Jonathan J. Heckman, Austin Joyce, Jeremy Sakstein, Mark Trodden, | Summary: We explore potential uses of physics formulated in Kleinian (i.e., $2+2$) signature spacetimes as a tool for understanding properties of physics in Lorentzian (i.e., $3+1$) signature. Much as Euclidean (i.e., $4+0$) signature quantities can be used […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Nickolay Y. Gnedin, Piero Madau, , , | Summary: The transformation of cold neutral intergalactic hydrogen into a highly ionized warm plasma marks the end of the cosmic dark ages and the beginning of the age of galaxies. The details of this process reflect the nature […]

Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Ruancun Li, Luis C. Ho, Claudio Ricci, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Iair Arcavi | Summary: Changing-look active galactic nuclei (AGNs) present an important laboratory to understand the origin and physical properties of the broad-line region (BLR). We investigate follow-up optical spectroscopy spanning $sim 500$ days after the outburst of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mihoko M. Nojiri | First 5 Authors: Iñaki Lara, Trygve Buanes, Rafał Masełek, Mihoko M. Nojiri, Krzysztof Rolbiecki | Summary: In this paper, we study the monojet and dijet channels at the LHC as a tool for searching for squarks and gluinos. We consider two separate scenarios. In the first scenario we postulate […]
