Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Ramon Gao, Michael D. Kelzenberg, Harry A. Atwater, , | Summary: Lightsail spacecraft, propelled to relativistic velocities via photon pressure using high power density laser radiation, offer a potentially new route to space exploration within and beyond the solar system, extending to interstellar distances. Such missions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Peter I Renn, Cong Wang, Sahin Lale, Zongyi Li, Anima Anandkumar | Summary: We apply Fourier neural operators (FNOs), a state-of-the-art operator learning technique, to forecast the temporal evolution of experimentally measured velocity fields. FNOs are a recently developed machine learning method capable of approximating solution operators […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kerry J. Vahala | First 5 Authors: Chao Xiang, Warren Jin, Osama Terra, Bozhang Dong, Heming Wang | Summary: While photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are being widely used in applications such as telecommunications and datacenter interconnects, PICs capable of replacing bulk optics and fibers in high-precision, highly-coherent applications will require ultra-low-noise laser sources […]

Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Robert M. Gray, Mingchen Liu, Selina Zhou, Arkadev Roy, Luis Ledezma | Summary: Optical molecular sensing is one of the most promising techniques for a wide range of applications, from fundamental studies to medical and environmental analysis. In the optical spectrum, the mid-infrared is particularly important for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Robert M. Gray, Mingchen Liu, Selina Zhou, Arkadev Roy, Luis Ledezma | Summary: Optical solitons have long been of interest both from a fundamental perspective and because of their application potential. Both cubic (Kerr) and quadratic nonlinearities can lead to soliton formation, but quadratic solitons can practically […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Helene Spring, Viktor Könye, Fabian A. Gerritsma, Ion Cosma Fulga, Anton R. Akhmerov | Summary: Disorder can localize the eigenstates of one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems, leading to an Anderson transition with a critical exponent of 1. We show that, due to the lack of energy conservation, the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, , , , | Summary: We consider the problem of inferring the underlying graph topology from smooth graph signals in a novel but practical scenario where data are located in distributed clients and are privacy-sensitive. The main difficulty of this task lies in how to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Qiao Wang, , , | Summary: We consider the problem of inferring graph topology from smooth graph signals in a novel but practical scenario where data are located in distributed clients and prohibited from leaving local clients due to factors such as privacy concerns. The […]
Kavli Affiliate: Katia Bertoldi | First 5 Authors: Bolei Deng, Jordan R. Raney, Katia Bertoldi, Vincent Tournat, | Summary: Flexible mechanical metamaterials are compliant structures engineered to achieve unique properties via the large deformation of their components. While their static character has been studied extensively, the study of their dynamic properties is still at an […]
