Kavli Affiliate: Li Xin Li | First 5 Authors: Bo Li, Xin Li, Wang Gao, Qing Jiang, | Summary: Surface energy is fundamental in controlling surface properties and surface-driven processes like heterogeneous catalysis, as adsorption energy is. It is thus crucial to establish an effective scheme to determine surface energy and its relation with adsorption […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Gang Xu, Fei Gao, He Liu, Rong-Long Ma | Summary: Operation speed and coherence time are two core measures for the viability of a qubit. Strong spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and relatively weak hyperfine interaction make holes in germanium (Ge) intriguing candidates for spin qubits with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: T. Jayasinghe, C. S. Kochanek, K. Z. Stanek, B. J. Shappee, T. W. -S. Holoien | Summary: The All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) provides long baseline (${sim}4$ yrs) $V-$band light curves for sources brighter than V$lesssim17$ mag across the whole sky. We produced V-band light curves […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rainer Spurzem | First 5 Authors: Yohai Meiron, Jeremy J. Webb, Jongsuk Hong, Peter Berczik, Rainer Spurzem | Summary: Massive globular clusters lose stars via internal and external processes. Internal processes include mainly two-body relaxation, while external processes include interactions with the Galactic tidal field. We perform a suite of N-body simulations of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Qingjuan Yu | First 5 Authors: Yunfeng Chen, Qingjuan Yu, Youjun Lu, , | Summary: We investigate the evolution of supermassive binary black holes (BBHs) in galaxies with realistic property distributions and the gravitational-wave (GW) radiation from the cosmic population of these BBHs. We incorporate a comprehensive treatment of the dynamical interactions of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Shuang Du, Weihua Wang, Xuhao Wu, Renxin Xu, | Summary: We propose a geometrical explanation for periodically and nonperiodically repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) under neutron star (NS)-companion systems. We suggest a constant critical binary separation, $r_{rm c}$, within which the interaction between the NS and companion […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Giseon Baek, Benjamin A. MacFarlane, Jeong-Eun Lee, Dimitris Stamatellos, Gregory Herczeg | Summary: In the episodic accretion scenario, a large fraction of the protostellar mass accretes during repeated and large bursts of accretion. Since outbursts on protostars are typically identified at specific wavelengths, interpreting these outbursts requires […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Gang Liu, Jing Wang, , , | Summary: The simulation of biological dendrite computations is vital for the development of artificial intelligence (AI). This paper presents a basic machine learning algorithm, named Dendrite Net or DD, just like Support Vector Machine (SVM) or Multilayer Perceptron (MLP). DD’s […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Mohamed Naveed Gul Mohamed, Suman Chakravorty, Raman Goyal, Ran Wang, | Summary: We consider the problem of nonlinear stochastic optimal control. This problem is thought to be fundamentally intractable owing to Bellman’s infamous "curse of dimensionality". We present a result that shows that repeatedly solving an open-loop […]
