Improved tracking of particles with highly correlated motion

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Weitz | First 5 Authors: Ella M. King, Zizhao Wang, David A. Weitz, Frans Spaepen, Michael P. Brenner | Summary: Despite significant advances in particle imaging technologies over the past two decades, few advances have been made in particle tracking, i.e. linking individual particle positions across time series data. The state-of-the-art […]

Strain-induced orbital energy shift in antiferromagnetic RuO2 revealed by resonant elastic x-ray scattering

Kavli Affiliate: Darrell G. Schlom | First 5 Authors: Benjamin Gregory, Jörg Strempfer, Daniel Weinstock, Jacob Ruf, Yifei Sun | Summary: In its ground state, RuO2 was long thought to be an ordinary metallic paramagnet. Recent neutron and x-ray diffraction revealed that bulk RuO2 is an antiferromagnet (AFM) with TN above 300 K. Furthermore, epitaxial […]

Scattering Loss in Precision Metrology due to Mirror Roughness

Kavli Affiliate: Rana X. Adhikari | First 5 Authors: Yehonathan Drori, Johannes Eichholz, Tega Edo, Hiro Yamamoto, Yutaro Enomoto | Summary: Optical losses degrade the sensitivity of laser interferometric instruments. They reduce the number of signal photons and introduce technical noise associated with diffuse light. In quantum-enhanced metrology, they break the entanglement between correlated photons. […]
