Kavli Affiliate: Andrei Faraon | First 5 Authors: Conner Ballew, Gregory Roberts, Andrei Faraon, , | Summary: The ideal imaging system would efficiently capture information about all fundamental properties light: intensity, direction, wavelength, and polarization. Most common imaging systems only map the spatial degrees of freedom of light onto a two dimensional image sensor, with […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ariel Amir | First 5 Authors: Tabea Heckenthaler, Tobias Holder, Ariel Amir, Ofer Feinerman, Ehud Fonio | Summary: Some ant species are known as efficient transporters that can cooperatively carry food items which would be too large for a single ant. Previous studies of cooperative transport focused on the role of individual ants […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ariel Amir | First 5 Authors: Tabea Heckenthaler, Tobias Holder, Ariel Amir, Ofer Feinerman, Ehud Fonio | Summary: Paratrechina longicornis ants are known for their ability to cooperatively transport large food items. Previous studies have focused on the behavioral rules of individual ants and explained the efficient coordination using the coupled-carrier model. In […]
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 […]
