Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Gautam Venugopalan, Giorgio Gratta, , , | Summary: Microscopic devices are widely used in optomechanical experiments at the cutting-edge of precision experimental physics. Such devices often need to have high electrical conductivity but low reflectivity at optical wavelengths, which can be competing requirements for many commonly available […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah A. Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Chao-Lin Kuo, Chelsea L. Bartram, Aaron S. Chou, Taj A. Dyson, Noah A. Kurinsky | Summary: We provide a comprehensive comparison of linear amplifiers and microwave photon-counters in axion dark matter experiments. The study is done assuming a range of realistic operating conditions and detector parameters, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Aaron Roodman | First 5 Authors: John Banovetz, Yousuke Utsumi, Joshua Meyers, Maya Beleznay, Andrew Rasmussen | Summary: During electro-optical testing of the camera for the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time, a unique low-signal pattern was found in differenced pairs of flat images used to create photon […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Omodei | First 5 Authors: Donggeun Tak, Z. Lucas Uhm, Gregory S. H. Paek, Myungshin Im, Makoto Arimoto | Summary: Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic explosions in the universe, and their afterglow emission provides an opportunity to probe the physics of relativistic shock waves in an extreme environment. Several key […]

Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Brandon Shane, Blakesley Burkhart, Laura Fissel, Susan E. Clark, Philip Mocz | Summary: The characterization of magnetic fields within molecular clouds is fundamental to understanding star formation processes. Accurately gauging the three-dimensional structure of these fields presents a challenge, as observational techniques such as dust polarization […]
Kavli Affiliate: Philip J. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Katsuya T. Abe, Masamune Oguri, Simon Birrer, Narayan Khadka, Philip J. Marshall | Summary: Time delays in both galaxy- and cluster-scale strong gravitational lenses have recently attracted a lot of attention in the context of the Hubble tension. Future wide-field cadenced surveys, such as the LSST, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: M. Guzzetti, D. Zhang, C. Goodman, C. Hanretty, J. Sinnis | Summary: Axions are a well-motivated candidate for dark matter. The preeminent method to search for axion dark matter is known as the axion haloscope, which makes use of the conversion of axions to photons in a […]
