Kavli Affiliate: Ankit Disa | First 5 Authors: Alexandru B. Georgescu, Oleg E. Peil, Ankit Disa, Antoine Georges, Andrew J. Millis | Summary: In complex oxide materials, changes in electronic properties are often associated with changes in crystal structure, raising the question of the relative roles of the electronic and lattice effects in driving the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Brad Ramshaw | First 5 Authors: Laurel E Winter, Arkady Shekhter, Brad Ramshaw, Ryan E. Baumbach, Eric D. Bauer | Summary: Quantum materials are epitomized by the influence of collective modes upon their macroscopic properties. Relatively few examples exist, however, whereby coherence of the ground-state wavefunction directly contributes to the conductivity. Notable examples […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeevak M. Parpia | First 5 Authors: Lev V. Levitin, Ben Yager, Laura Sumner, Brian Cowan, Andrew J. Casey | Summary: In superfluid $^3$He-B confined in a slab geometry, domain walls between regions of different order parameter orientation are predicted to be energetically stable. Formation of the spatially-modulated superfluid stripe phase has been […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alyosha Molnar | First 5 Authors: Mayank Gupta, Arjun Jauhari, Kuldeep Kulkarni, Suren Jayasuriya, Alyosha Molnar | Summary: Light field imaging is limited in its computational processing demands of high sampling for both spatial and angular dimensions. Single-shot light field cameras sacrifice spatial resolution to sample angular viewpoints, typically by multiplexing incoming rays […]
Kavli Affiliate: Barbara Baird | First 5 Authors: Eshan D. Mitra, Samuel C. Whitehead, David Holowka, Barbara Baird, James P. Sethna | Summary: Lipid phase heterogeneity in the plasma membrane is thought to be crucial for many aspects of cell signaling, but the physical basis of participating membrane domains such as "lipid rafts" remains controversial. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chris B. Schaffer | First 5 Authors: Mohammad Haft-Javaherian, Linjing Fang, Victorine Muse, Chris B. Schaffer, Nozomi Nishimura | Summary: The health and function of tissue rely on its vasculature network to provide reliable blood perfusion. Volumetric imaging approaches, such as multiphoton microscopy, are able to generate detailed 3D images of blood vessels […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Wiesner | First 5 Authors: Michel Fruchart, Seung-Yeol Jeon, Kahyun Hur, Vadim Cheianov, Ulrich Wiesner | Summary: Soft materials can self-assemble into highly structured phases which replicate at the mesoscopic scale the symmetry of atomic crystals. As such, they offer an unparalleled platform to design mesostructured materials for light and sound. Here, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Abraham Stroock | First 5 Authors: Olivier Vincent, Bastien Marguet, Abraham Stroock, , | Summary: We study the spatio-temporal dynamics of water uptake by capillary condensation from unsaturated vapor in mesoporous silicon layers (pore radius $r_mathrm{p} simeq 2$ nm), taking advantage of the local changes in optical reflectance as a function of water […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | First 5 Authors: Christel Baier, Stefan Kiefer, Joachim Klein, David Müller, James Worrell | Summary: Unambiguous automata are nondeterministic automata in which every word has at most one accepting run. In this paper we give a polynomial-time algorithm for model checking discrete-time Markov chains against omega-regular specifications represented as unambiguous […]
