Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | First 5 Authors: Kentaro Kasai, Masahiro Kawasaki, Kai Murai, , | Summary: We study a primordial black hole (PBH) formation scenario based on the Affleck-Dine (AD) mechanism and investigate two PBH mass regions: $M sim 30 M_odot$ motivated by the LIGO-Virgo observations of the binary black hole mergers and $M […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Jiayu Mao, Haibo Yang, Peiwen Qiu, Jia Liu, Aylin Yener | Summary: Over-the-air federated learning (OTA-FL) has emerged as an efficient mechanism that exploits the superposition property of the wireless medium and performs model aggregation for federated learning in the air. OTA-FL is naturally sensitive to wireless […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Huajie Cheng, Wen Han Chiu, Yaquan Fang, Yu Gao, Jiayin Gu | Summary: The Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) is a large-scale collider facility that can serve as a factory of the Higgs, Z, and W bosons and is upgradable to run at the ttbar threshold. This […]

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Pisin Chen, Misao Sasaki, Dong-han Yeom, Junggi Yoon, | Summary: The information loss paradox remains unresolved ever since Hawking’s seminal discovery of black hole evaporation. In this essay, we revisit the entanglement entropy via Euclidean path integral (EPI) and allow for the branching of semi-classical histories during […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Dan Kondo, Robert McGehee, Tom Melia, Hitoshi Murayama, | Summary: We present a model of self-interacting dark matter based on QCD-like theories and inspired by the proximity of $a_0(980pm 20)$ to the $Kbar{K}(990)$ threshold. Dark matter is comprised of dark pions which self-scatter via the $sigma$ resonance […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Joshua J. Ziegler, Thomas D. P. Edwards, Anna M. Suliga, Irene Tamborra, Shunsaku Horiuchi | Summary: We explore the assumption, widely used in many astrophysical calculations, that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is universal across all galaxies. By considering both a canonical Salpeter-like IMF and a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Haibo Yang, Peiwen Qiu, Jia Liu, Aylin Yener, | Summary: This paper considers over-the-air federated learning (OTA-FL). OTA-FL exploits the superposition property of the wireless medium, and performs model aggregation over the air for free. Thus, it can greatly reduce the communication cost incurred in communicating model […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Paolo Campeti, Eiichiro Komatsu, , , | Summary: We derive a new upper bound on the tensor-to-scalar ratio parameter $r$ using the frequentist profile likelihood method. We vary all the relevant cosmological parameters of the $Lambda$CDM model, as well as the nuisance parameters. Unlike the Bayesian analysis […]
