Kavli Affiliate: Edward W. Kolb | First 5 Authors: Christian Capanelli, Leah Jenks, Edward W. Kolb, Evan McDonough, | Summary: The Kalb-Ramond field is an antisymmetric, rank-two tensor field which most notably appears in the context of string theory, but has largely been unexplored in the context of cosmology. In this work, motivated by the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Linwei Hu, Ke Wang, , , | Summary: SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) has become a popular method to attribute the prediction of a machine learning model on an input to its features. One main challenge of SHAP is the computation time. An exact computation of Shapley values […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Guy Ohad, Stephen E. Gant, Dahvyd Wing, Jonah B. Haber, María Camarasa-Gómez | Summary: Using both time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and the “single-shot" $GW$ plus Bethe-Salpeter equation ($GW$-BSE) approach, we compute optical band gaps and optical absorption spectra from first principles for eight common binary […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Scarlett Gauthier, Gayane Vardoyan, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: Entanglement between quantum network nodes is often produced using intermediary devices – such as heralding stations – as a resource. When scaling quantum networks to many nodes, requiring a dedicated intermediary device for every pair of nodes introduces […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Christopher W. Wächtler, Joel E. Moore, , , | Summary: The gapped symmetric phase of the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) model exhibits fractionalized spins at the ends of an open chain. We show that breaking SU(2) symmetry and applying a global spin-lowering dissipator achieves synchronization of these fractionalized […]

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Max Tegmark, Steve Omohundro, , , | Summary: We describe a path to humanity safely thriving with powerful Artificial General Intelligences (AGIs) by building them to provably satisfy human-specified requirements. We argue that this will soon be technically feasible using advanced AI for formal verification and mechanistic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Tommaso Magrini, Chelsea Fox, Adeline Wihardja, Athena Kolli, Chiara Daraio | Summary: Composites with high strength and high fracture resistance are desirable for structural and protective applications. Most composites, however, suffer from poor damage tolerance and are prone to unpredictable fractures. Understanding the behavior of materials with […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Ping Zhou, Dmitry Prokhorov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Yi-Jung Yang, Patrick Slane | Summary: Young supernova remnants (SNRs) strongly modify surrounding magnetic fields, which in turn play an essential role in accelerating cosmic rays (CRs). X-ray polarization measurements probe magnetic field morphology and turbulence at the immediate acceleration […]
