Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Robert L. Cook, Liwen Ko, K. Birgitta Whaley, , | Summary: We study the connection between exceptional points (EPs) and optimal parameter estimation, in a simple system consisting of two counter-propagating traveling wave modes in a microring resonator. The unknown parameter to be estimated is the strength […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Christos Panagiotou, Iossif Papadakis, Erin Kara, Marios Papoutsis, Edward M. Cackett | Summary: Over the last years, a number of broadband reverberation mapping campaigns have been conducted to explore the short-term UV and optical variability of nearby AGN. Despite the extensive data collected, the origin of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Biplob Bhattacherjee, Camellia Bose, Herbi K. Dreiner, Nivedita Ghosh, Shigeki Matsumoto | Summary: In the search for beyond the Standard Model (SM) physics, long-lived particles (LLPs) have emerged as potential candidates and are being explored in various ongoing experiments. Future lepton colliders, such as the FCC-ee, shall […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Jacob M. Leedom, Hitoshi Murayama, Gup Singh, Bethany Suter, Jason Wong | Summary: We present exact results in $text{SU}(N_C)$ chiral gauge theories with charged fermions in an antisymmetric, $N_F$ fundamental, and $N_C + N_F – 4$ anti-fundamental representations. We achieve this by considering the supersymmetric version of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Erin Kara | First 5 Authors: Megan Masterson, Kishalay De, Christos Panagiotou, Erin Kara, Anna-Christina Eilers | Summary: Mid-infrared (MIR) emission from tidal disruption events (TDEs) is a powerful probe of the circumnuclear environment around dormant supermassive black holes. This emission arises from the reprocessing of intrinsic emission into thermal MIR emission by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Debdeep Jena | First 5 Authors: Maike Gremmel, Chandrashekhar Prakash Savant, Debaditya Bhattacharya, Georg Schönweger, Debdeep Jena | Summary: This study explores the influence of boron incorporation on the structural and electrical properties of ferroelectric Aluminum Scandium Nitride (Al_{1-x}Sc_xN ) thin films, focusing on leakage currents, wake-up effects, and imprint behavior. Al_{1-x}Sc_xN films […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhanjie Zhang, Ao Ma, Ke Cao, Jing Wang, Shanyuan Liu | Summary: Ultra-high quality artistic style transfer refers to repainting an ultra-high quality content image using the style information learned from the style image. Existing artistic style transfer methods can be categorized into style reconstruction-based and content-style […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, Ao Ma, Ke Cao, Jun Zheng, Zhanjie Zhang | Summary: Recent rapid advancements in text-to-video (T2V) generation, such as SoRA and Kling, have shown great potential for building world simulators. However, current T2V models struggle to grasp abstract physical principles and generate videos that adhere […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Frieman | First 5 Authors: Robert Besuner, Arjun Dey, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Haruki Ebina, Guillermo Fernandez Moroni | Summary: Observational cosmology has provided an extraordinary perspective on our universe and our place within it. However, as our understanding of the universe has increased, some glaring holes in our knowledge have become apparent: What […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Frieman | First 5 Authors: Robert Besuner, Arjun Dey, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Haruki Ebina, Guillermo Fernandez Moroni | Summary: The existence, properties, and dynamics of the dark sectors of our universe pose fundamental challenges to our current model of physics, and large-scale astronomical surveys may be our only hope to unravel these long-standing […]
