Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Markus Schütz, Bernhard Kerbl, Michael Wimmer, , | Summary: While commodity GPUs provide a continuously growing range of features and sophisticated methods for accelerating compute jobs, many state-of-the-art solutions for point cloud rendering still rely on the provided point primitives (GL_POINTS, POINTLIST, …) of graphics APIs for […]
Kavli Affiliate: James Bock | First 5 Authors: Phillip Korngut, Min Gyu Kim, Toshiaki Arai, Priyadarshini Bangale, James Bock | Summary: Scattered sunlight from the interplanetary dust (IPD) cloud in our Solar system presents a serious foreground challenge for spectro-photometric measurements of the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL). In this work, we report on measurements of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Mario F. Gely, Adrián Sanz Mora, Shun Yanai, Rik van der Spek, Daniel Bothner | Summary: Nonlinear damping, a force of friction that depends on the amplitude of motion, plays an important role in many electrical, mechanical and even biological oscillators. In novel technologies such as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Mario F. Gely, Adrián Sanz Mora, Shun Yanai, Rik van der Spek, Daniel Bothner | Summary: Nonlinear damping, the change in damping rate with the amplitude of oscillations plays an important role in many electrical, mechanical and even biological oscillators. In novel technologies such as carbon […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Paul K. Todd, Matthew J. McDermott, Christopher L. Rom, Adam A. Corrao, Jonathan J. Denney | Summary: In sharp contrast to molecular synthesis, materials synthesis is generally presumed to lack selectivity. The few known methods of designing selectivity in solid-state reactions have limited scope, such as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Ilana J. Porter, Angela Lee, Scott K. Cushing, Hung-Tzu Chang, Justin C. Ondry | Summary: Silicon nanoparticles have the promise to surpass the theoretical efficiency limit of single-junction silicon photovoltaics by the creation of a "phonon bottleneck", a theorized slowing of the cooling rate of hot […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Christian Leefmans, Avik Dutt, James Williams, Luqi Yuan, Midya Parto | Summary: Topological phases feature robust edge states that are protected against the effects of defects and disorder. The robustness of these states presents opportunities to design technologies that are tolerant to fabrication errors and resilient to […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: David T. Limmer, Chloe Y. Gao, Anthony R. Poggioli, , | Summary: Understanding transport processes in complex nanoscale systems, like ionic conductivities in nanofluidic devices or heat conduction in low dimensional solids, poses the problem of examining fluctuations of currents within nonequilibrium steady states and relating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Szilard Szoke, Manni He, Bryce P. Hickam, Scott K. Cushing, | Summary: Entangled photon spectroscopy is a nascent field that has important implications for measurement and imaging across chemical, biology, and materials fields. Entangled photon spectroscopy potentially offers improved spatial and temporal-frequency resolutions, increased cross sections […]
