Observation of Photon Blockade in a Tavis-Cummings System

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | First 5 Authors: Brian Marinelli, Alex H. Rubin, Victoria A. Norman, Santai Yang, Ravi Naik | Summary: We observe blockade of microwave photons in a Tavis-Cummings system comprising a superconducting cavity and up to $N=3$ transmon qubits. The effect is characterized with photon number-resolving spectroscopy using an additional dispersively coupled […]

Better early than never: A new test for superluminal gravitational wave polarizations

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Kristen Schumacher, Colm Talbot, Daniel E. Holz, Nicolás Yunes, | Summary: In some beyond-Einstein theories of gravity, gravitational waves can contain up to six polarizations, which are allowed to propagate at different speeds faster than light. These different propagation speeds imply that polarizations generated by the […]

CIBER 4th flight fluctuation analysis: Pseudo-power spectrum formalism, improved source masking and validation on mocks

Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: Richard M. Feder, James J. Bock, Yun-Ting Cheng, Asantha Cooray, Phillip M. Korngut | Summary: Precise, unbiased measurements of extragalactic background anisotropies require careful treatment of systematic effects in fluctuation-based, broad-band intensity mapping measurements. In this paper we detail improvements in methodology for the Cosmic Infrared […]

Phage defense and genome editing using novel retrons sourced from isolated environmental bacteria

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Shipman | Authors: Kazuo Nakamura, Karen Zhang, Mario R Mestre, Matias Rojas-Montero and Seth Shipman | Summary: Retrons are bacterial immune systems that protect a bacterial population against phages by killing infected hosts. Retrons typically comprise a reverse transcriptase, a template noncoding RNA that is partially reverse transcribed into RT-DNA, and a […]

Quantum oscillations in a dipolar excitonic insulator

Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Phuong X. Nguyen, Raghav Chaturvedi, Bo Zou, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Quantum oscillations in magnetization or resistivity are a defining feature of metals subject to an external magnetic field. The phenomenon is generally not expected in insulators without a Fermi surface. The observations of quantum […]
