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 […]

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Xuheng Ding, John D. Silverman, Tommaso Treu, Junyao Li, Aklant K. Bhowmick | Summary: We carry out a comparative analysis of the relation between the mass of supermassive black holes (BHs) and the stellar mass of their host galaxies at $0.2<z<1.7$ using well-matched observations and multiple […]

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Juan Camilo Buitrago-Casas, Lindsay Glesener, Steven Christe, Säm Krucker, Juliana Vievering | Summary: Solar nanoflares are small eruptive events releasing magnetic energy in the quiet corona. If nanoflares follow the same physics as their larger counterparts, they should emit hard X-rays (HXRs) but with a rather faint […]
Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Masahiro Ibe, Satoshi Shirai, Motoo Suzuki, Keiichi Watanabe, Tsutomu T. Yanagida | Summary: It is remarkable that the matter fields in the Standard Model (SM) are apparently unified into the $mathrm{SU}(5)$ representations. A straightforward explanation of this fact is to embed all the SM gauge groups into […]
