Kavli Affiliate: Hiroaki Aihara | First 5 Authors: Toshiya Namikawa, Yuji Chinone, Hironao Miyatake, Masamune Oguri, Ryuichi Takahashi | Summary: We present the first measurement of cross-correlation between the lensing potential, reconstructed from cosmic microwave background (CMB) {it polarization} data, and the cosmic shear field from galaxy shapes. This measurement is made using data from […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Hartz | First 5 Authors: Aysel Kayis Topaksu, Edward Blucher, Bernard Andrieu, Jianming Bian, Byron Roe | Summary: With the discovery of non-zero value of $theta_{13}$ mixing angle, the next generation of long-baseline neutrino (LBN) experiments offers the possibility of obtaining statistically significant samples of muon and electron neutrinos and anti-neutrinos with […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Yuji Tachikawa, , , , | Summary: This lecture series consists of mostly independent three parts: Part 1: a tour of basic 4d N=1 supersymmetric dynamics, covering the pure super Yang-Mills, the Seiberg duality for classical groups, the supersymmetric index on S^3, and the a-maximization. Part 2: […]

Kavli Affiliate: Masayuki Nakahata | First 5 Authors: Andrea Dell’Acqua, Antoni Aduszkiewicz, Markus Ahlers, Hiroaki Aihara, Tyler Alion | Summary: This document summarizes the conclusions of the Neutrino Town Meeting held at CERN in October 2018 to review the neutrino field at large with the aim of defining a strategy for accelerator-based neutrino physics in […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kentaro Hori | First 5 Authors: Daichi Takane, Seigo Souma, Kosuke Nakayama, Takechika Nakamura, Hikaru Oinuma | Summary: We have performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of AlB2 which is isostructural to high-temperature superconductor MgB2. Using soft-x-ray photons, we accurately determined the three-dimensional bulk band structure and found a highly anisotropic Dirac-cone band at the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Hartz | First 5 Authors: Yoshi Uchida, Mark Hartz, R. Phillip Litchfield, Callum Wilkinson, Asher Kaboth | Summary: The presentations, discussions and findings from the inaugural `PhyStat-$nu$’ workshop held at the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (IPMU) near Tokyo in 2016 are described. PhyStat-$nu$ was the first […]

Kavli Affiliate: Yasunori Nomura | First 5 Authors: Yasunori Nomura, Pratik Rath, Nico Salzetta, , | Summary: Motivated by the ability to consistently apply the Ryu-Takayanagi prescription for general convex surfaces and the relationship between entanglement and geometry in tensor networks, we introduce a novel, covariant bulk object – the holographic slice. The holographic slice […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mikhail Kapranov | First 5 Authors: Michael Finkelberg, Mikhail Kapranov, Vadim Schechtman, , | Summary: We consider the category of perverse sheaves on a complex vector space smooth with respect to a stratification given by an arrangement of hyperplanes with real equations. As shown in an earlier wotk of two of the authors, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Tadashi Orita | First 5 Authors: Shin-nosuke Ishikawa, Tadayuki Takahashi, Shin Watanabe, Noriyuki Narukage, Satoshi Miyazaki | Summary: We have developed a system combining a back-illuminated Complementary-Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) imaging sensor and Xilinx Zynq System-on-Chip (SoC) device for a soft X-ray (0.5-10 keV) imaging spectroscopy observation of the Sun to investigate the dynamics of […]
