Kavli Affiliate: Debanjan Chowdhury | First 5 Authors: Haining Pan, Haining Pan, , , | Summary: Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable progress in coding and math problem-solving, but evaluation on advanced research-level problems in hard sciences remains scarce. To fill this gap, we present CMT-Benchmark, a dataset of 50 problems covering condensed matter […]
Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: The background light produced by emission from all sources over cosmic history is a powerful diagnostic of structure formation and evolution. At near-infrared wavelengths, this extragalactic background light (EBL) is comprised of emission from galaxies stretching all the way back […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Raphaela de Oliveira, Raphaela de Oliveira, , , | Summary: Biotite crystals are phyllosilicate trioctahedral micas with the general chemical formula K(Mg,Fe)3AlSi3O10(OH)2 that form a solid-solution series with iron-poor phlogopite and iron-rich annite endmembers. With a wide band gap energy and a layered […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Zeng Tao, Zeng Tao, , , | Summary: Existing 2D-lifting-based 3D editing methods often encounter challenges related to inconsistency, stemming from the lack of view-consistent 2D editing models and the difficulty of ensuring consistent editing across multiple views. To address these issues, we propose C3Editor, a controllable […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | First 5 Authors: Emerson Melo, Emerson Melo, , , | Summary: We establish a link between a class of discrete choice models and the theory of online learning and multi-armed bandits. Our contributions are: (i) sublinear regret bounds for a broad algorithmic family, encompassing Exp3 as a special case; (ii) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Mats Volmer, Mats Volmer, , , | Summary: Silicon quantum chips offer a promising path toward scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing, with the potential to host millions of qubits. However, scaling up dense quantum-dot arrays and enabling qubit interconnections through shuttling are hindered by uncontrolled lateral variations of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Asser Elsayed, Asser Elsayed, , , | Summary: Understanding scattering mechanisms in semiconductor heterostructures is crucial to reducing sources of disorder and ensuring high yield and uniformity in large spin qubit arrays. Disorder of the parent two-dimensional electron or hole gas is commonly estimated by the critical, […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | First 5 Authors: Sarvesh Chaudhari, Sarvesh Chaudhari, , , | Summary: Surface oxides are associated with two-level systems (TLSs) that degrade the performance of niobium-based superconducting quantum computing devices. To address this, we introduce a predictive framework for selecting metal capping layers that inhibit niobium oxide formation. Using DFT-calculated oxygen […]

Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: Victoria L. Butler, Victoria L. Butler, , , | Summary: Transition Edge Sensor (TES) bolometers are a well-established technology with a strong track record in experimental cosmology, making them ideal for current and future radio astronomy instruments. The Tomographic Ionized-carbon Mapping Experiment (TIME), in collaboration with […]
