Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Quentin G. Bailey, Alexander S. Gard, Nils A. Nilsson, Rui Xu, Lijing Shao | Summary: An effective field theory framework is used to investigate some Lorentz-violating effects on the generation of electromagnetic and gravitational waves, complementing previous work on propagation. Specifically we find solutions to a modified, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yanan Feng, Xiaohu Li, Tom J. Millar, Ryszard Szczerba, Ke Wang | Summary: Whether SiC$_2$ is a parent species, that is formed in the photosphere or as a by-product of high-temperature dust formation, or a daughter species, formed in a chemistry driven by the photodestruction of parent […]

Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Pau Amaro Seoane, , , , | Summary: We have evidence of X-ray flares in several galaxies consistent with a a star being tidally disrupted by a supermassive black hole (MBH). If the star starts on a nearly parabolic orbit relative to the MBH, one can […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jinjiang Zhu, Yang Feng, Xiaodong Zhou, Yongchao Wang, Zichen Lian | Summary: The chiral edge current is the boundary manifestation of the Chern number of a quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator. Its direct observation is assumed to require well-quantized Hall conductance, and is so far lacking. The […]

Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Pau Amaro Seoane, , , , | Summary: In galactic nuclei, stellar densities are so high that stars can physically collide with each other. In this work we focus on the collision of red giants and in particular on the formation of non-thermal processes through collisions […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Huan Wang, Zhaochen Liu, Yadong Jiang, Jing Wang, | Summary: We propose a theory of anisotropic band flattening in moir’e systems at the $Gamma$ valley. We find that in twisted anisotropic two-dimensional crystals with a rectangular unit cell of $C_{2z}$ or mirror symmetries, a larger effective mass […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Huan Wang, Zhaochen Liu, Yadong Jiang, Jing Wang, | Summary: We propose a general theory of anisotropic band flattening in moir’e systems at the $Gamma$ valley. For a two-dimensional semiconductor with a rectangular unit cell of $C_{2z}$ or mirror symmetries, we find that a larger effective mass […]

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Wei-Jian Guo, Hu Zou, Victoria Anne Fawcett, Rebecca Canning, Stephanie Juneau | Summary: Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei (CL AGN) can be generally confirmed by the emergence (turn-on) or disappearance (turn-off) of broad emission lines, associated with a transient timescale (about $100sim5000$ days) that is much shorter than […]
