Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Alejandro A. Stefan-Zavala, Isabel Scherl, Ioannis Mandralis, Steven L. Brunton, Morteza Gharib | Summary: Fan-array wind tunnels are an emerging technology to design bespoke wind fields through grids of individually controllable fans. This design is especially suited for the turbulent, dynamic, non-uniform flow conditions found close to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sunil R. Golwala | First 5 Authors: Fabien Defrance, Andrew D. Beyer, Jordan Wheeler, Jack Sayers, Sunil R. Golwala | Summary: At sub-Kelvin temperatures, two-level systems (TLS) present in amorphous dielectrics source a permittivity noise, degrading the performance of a wide range of devices using superconductive resonators such as qubits or kinetic inductance […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | First 5 Authors: Alkım B. Bozkurt, Omid Golami, Yue Yu, Hao Tian, Mohammad Mirhosseini | Summary: Long-lived mechanical oscillators are actively pursued as critical resources for quantum storage, sensing, and transduction. However, achieving deterministic quantum control while limiting mechanical dissipation remains a persistent challenge. Here, we demonstrate strong coupling between […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Shivam Mundhra, Elina Sendonaris, Robert M. Gray, James Williams, Alireza Marandi | Summary: Thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) has recently emerged as a promising platform for integrated nonlinear photonics, enabling the use of optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs) for applications in quantum information processing, precision metrology, and ultrafast optical […]

Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Vincent Gherold, Ioannis Mandralis, Eric Sihite, Adarsh Salagame, Alireza Ramezani | Summary: Autonomous robots operating in real environments are often faced with decisions on how best to navigate their surroundings. In this work, we address a particular instance of this problem: how can a robot autonomously decide […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Qiyao Xue, Xiangyu Yin, Boyuan Yang, Wei Gao, | Summary: Text-to-video (T2V) generation has been recently enabled by transformer-based diffusion models, but current T2V models lack capabilities in adhering to the real-world common knowledge and physical rules, due to their limited understanding of physical realism and deficiency […]
