Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | Summary:Squeezed mechanical states are a highly coveted resource for quantum-enhanced sensing and serve as a compelling platform for probing the interplay between gravity and quantum mechanics. It has been predicted that a mechanical oscillator can be prepared into a quantum squeezed state if the applied measurement rate is fast relative […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: A. T. Hipp, A. Quiskamp, T. J. Caligiure, J. R. Gleason, Y. Han | Summary: The Axion Dark Matter eXperiment is sensitive to narrow axion flows, given axions compose a fraction of the dark matter with a non-negligible local density. Detecting these low-velocity dispersion flows requires a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | Summary:We generalize earlier solutions of gravitational shocks sourced by distributional null stress-energy and analyze their observable effects. A systematic method is proposed to demonstrate consistency between the gravitational effects of a null perfect fluid, i.e. a photon gas, and a collection of gravitational shock waves from point null particles. The […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | Summary:Black hole binaries with small mass ratios will be critical targets for the forthcoming Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. They also serve as useful tools for understanding the properties of binaries at general mass ratios. In its early stages, such a binary’s gravitational-wave-driven inspiral can be modeled as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Xiutian Zhao, Ke Wang, Wei Peng, , | Summary: Despite large language models’ (LLMs) recent advancements, their bias and hallucination issues persist, and their ability to offer consistent preferential rankings remains underexplored. This study investigates the capacity of LLMs to provide consistent ordinal preferences, a crucial aspect […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sander Otte | Summary:Nuclear spins owe their long-lived magnetic states to their excellent isolation from the environment. At the same time, a finite degree of interaction with their surroundings is necessary for reading and writing the spin state. Therefore, detailed knowledge of and control over the atomic environment of a nuclear spin is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yi Zhou, Yilai Li, Jing Yuan, Quanquan Gu, | Summary: Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is a powerful technique in structural biology and drug discovery, enabling the study of biomolecules at high resolution. Significant advancements by structural biologists using cryo-EM have led to the production of over 38,626 protein […]

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed, H. Aihara | Summary: We present a measurement of the branching fraction and time-dependent charge-parity ($CP$) decay-rate asymmetries in $B^0 to J/psi pi^0$ decays. The data sample was collected with the Belle~II detector at the SuperKEKB asymmetric $e^+e^-$ […]
