Central densities of dark matter halos in FIRE-2 simulations of low-mass galaxies with cold dark matter and self-interacting dark matter

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Maria C. Straight, Michael Boylan-Kolchin, James S. Bullock, Philip F. Hopkins, Xuejian Shen | Summary: We investigate the central density structure of dark matter halos in cold dark matter (CDM) and self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) models using simulations that are part of the Feedback In Realistic Environments […]

Cosmological Consequences of Domain Walls Biased by Quantum Gravity

Posted by dbos Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Yann Gouttenoire, Stephen F. King, Rishav Roshan, Xin Wang, Graham White | Summary: One of the simplest standard model extensions leading to a domain wall network is a real scalar $S$ with a $mathcal{Z}_2$ symmetry spontaneously broken during universe evolution. Motivated by the swampland program, we explore […]

Heterozygosity at a conserved candidate sex determination locus is associated with female development in the clonal raider ant

Posted by dbos Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Kronauer | Authors: Kip D Lacy, Jina Lee, Kathryn Rozen-Gagnon, Wei Wang, Thomas S Carroll and Daniel J C Kronauer | Summary: Sex determination is a developmental switch that triggers sex-specific developmental programs. This switch is “flipped” by the expression of genes that promote male- or female-specific development. Many lineages have evolved […]

State Permutation Control in Non-Hermitian Multiqubit Systems with Suppressed Non-Adiabatic Transitions

Posted by dbos Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Ievgen I. Arkhipov, Philippe Lewalle, Franco Nori, Şahin K. Özdemir, K. Birgitta Whaley | Summary: Non-Hermitian systems have been at the focus of intense research for over a decade, partly due to their nontrivial energy topology formed by intersecting Riemann manifolds with branch points known as exceptional […]
