Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Jonathan C. Tan, Jonathan C. Tan, , , | Summary: The Population III.1 theory for supermassive black hole (SMBH) formation predicts a very early ($zsim20-25$), transient phase, “The Flash”, of cosmic reionization powered by supermassive stars that are SMBH progenitors. The universe then quickly recombined to become […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Junhong Lin, Junhong Lin, , , | Summary: Feed-forward surround-view autonomous driving scene reconstruction offers fast, generalizable inference ability, which faces the core challenge of ensuring generalization while elevating novel view quality. Due to the surround-view with minimal overlap regions, existing methods typically fail to ensure geometric […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: GigaBrain Team, GigaBrain Team, , , | Summary: Training Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models for generalist robots typically requires large-scale real-world robot data, which is expensive and time-consuming to collect. The inefficiency of physical data collection severely limits the scalability, and generalization capacity of current VLA systems. To address […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | First 5 Authors: Shinta Kasuya, Shinta Kasuya, , , | Summary: We numerically study the formation of the gauge-mediation type Q balls in the logarithmic square potential on three-dimensional lattices. We obtain the broad charge distribution of the Q ball of this type for the first time. The charge of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel C. Ralph | First 5 Authors: Xiaoxi Huang, Xiaoxi Huang, , , | Summary: To achieve efficient anti-damping switching of nanoscale magnetic memories with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy using spin-orbit torque requires that the anti-damping spin-orbit torque have a strong out-of-plane component. The spin anomalous Hall effect and the planar Hall effect spin […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ting Xu | First 5 Authors: Yuting Wu, Yuting Wu, , , | Summary: A development effort to improve the performance of superconducting radio-frequency half-wave resonators (SRF HWRs) is underway at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), where 220 such resonators are in operation. Our goal was to achieve an intrinsic quality […]
Kavli Affiliate: Felix Fischer | First 5 Authors: Javier Cembrano, Javier Cembrano, , , | Summary: We study the selection of agents based on mutual nominations, a theoretical problem with many applications from committee selection to AI alignment. As agents both select and are selected, they may be incentivized to misrepresent their true opinion about […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Federico Esposito, Federico Esposito, , , | Summary: The distribution of molecular gas on small scales regulates star formation and the growth of supermassive black holes in galaxy centers, yet the role of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback in shaping this distribution remains poorly constrained. We investigate […]
