A Study of Afterglow Signatures in NaI and CsI Scintillator Modules for the Background and Transient Observer Instrument on COSI

Posted by dbos Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Hannah Gulick, Hiroki Yoneda, Tadayuki Takahashi, Claire Chen, Kazuhiro Nakazawa | Summary: We present measurements of the afterglow signatures in NaI(Tl) and CsI(Tl) detector modules as part of the Background and Transient Observer (BTO) mission detector trade-study. BTO is a NASA Student Collaboration Project flying on the […]

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 […]

Kavli Affiliate: David Kleinfeld | Authors: Heet Kaku, Liu D Liu, Runbo Gao, Steven West, Song-Mao Liao, Arseny Finkelstein, David Kleinfeld, Alyse Thomas, Sri Laasya Tipparaju, Karel Svoboda and Nuo Li | Summary: Rhythmic orofacial movements, such as eating, drinking, or vocalization, are controlled by distinct premotor oscillator networks in the brainstem. Orofacial movements must […]

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 […]

Braiding Majoranas in a linear quantum dot-superconductor array: Mitigating the errors from Coulomb repulsion and residual tunneling

Posted by dbos Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Miles, Francesco Zatelli, A. Mert Bozkurt, Michael Wimmer, Chun-Xiao Liu | Summary: Exchanging the positions of two non-Abelian anyons transforms between many-body wavefunctions within a degenerate ground-state manifold. This behavior is fundamentally distinct from fermions, bosons and Abelian anyons. Recently, quantum dot-superconductor arrays have emerged as […]

A flux-controlled two-site Kitaev chain

Posted by dbos Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Srijit Goswami | First 5 Authors: Ivan Kulesh, Sebastiaan L. D. ten Haaf, Qingzhen Wang, Vincent P. M. Sietses, Yining Zhang | Summary: In semiconducting-superconducting hybrid devices, Andreev bound states (ABSs) can mediate the coupling between quantum dots (QDs), allowing for the realisation of artificial Kitaev chains. In order to engineer Majorana bound […]

CausalSR: Structural Causal Model-Driven Super-Resolution with Counterfactual Inference

Posted by dbos Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhengyang Lu, Bingjie Lu, Feng Wang, , | Summary: Physical and optical factors interacting with sensor characteristics create complex image degradation patterns. Despite advances in deep learning-based super-resolution, existing methods overlook the causal nature of degradation by adopting simplistic black-box mappings. This paper formulates super-resolution using structural […]
