Developmental spontaneous activity promotes sensory domains, frequency tuning and proper gain in central auditory circuits

Posted by klaurent Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Dwight Bergles | Authors: Calvin J Kersbergen, Travis A Babola, Jason Rock and Dwight E Bergles | Summary: Neurons that process sensory information exhibit bursts of electrical activity during development, providing early training to circuits that will later encode similar features of the external world. In the mammalian auditory system, this intrinsically generated […]

Convergent gene expression highlights shared vocal motor microcircuitry in songbirds and humans

Posted by klaurent Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Erich Jarvis | Authors: Gregory L Gedman, Matthew T Biegler, Bettina Haase, Morgan Wirthlin, Olivier Fedrigo, Andreas R Pfenning and Erich D Jarvis | Summary: Vocal learning is a skilled motor behavior observed in several mammalian and avian species and is critical for human speech. While convergent gene expression patterns have highlighted similar […]

Independent Evidence for earlier formation epochs of fossil groups of galaxies through the intracluster light: the case for RX J100742.53+380046.6

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Eric Miller | First 5 Authors: Renato A. Dupke, Yolanda Jimenez-teja, Yuanyuan Su, Eleazar R. Carrasco, Anton M. Koekemoer | Summary: Fossil groups (FG) of galaxies still present a puzzle to theories of structure formation. Despite the low number of bright galaxies, they have relatively high velocity dispersions and ICM temperatures often corresponding […]

Hard X-ray emission from the eastern jet of SS 433 powering the W50 `Manatee’ nebula: Evidence for particle re-acceleration

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Melania Nynka | First 5 Authors: Samar Safi-Harb, Brydyn Mac Intyre, Shuo Zhang, Isaac Pope, Shuhan Zhang | Summary: We present a broadband X-ray study of W50 (`the Manatee nebula’), the complex region powered by the microquasar SS 433, that provides a test-bed for several important astrophysical processes. The W50 nebula, a Galactic […]

Learning to correct spectral methods for simulating turbulent flows

Posted by klaurent Harvard

Kavli Affiliate: Michael P. Brenner | First 5 Authors: Gideon Dresdner, Dmitrii Kochkov, Peter Norgaard, Leonardo Zepeda-Núñez, Jamie A. Smith | Summary: Despite their ubiquity throughout science and engineering, only a handful of partial differential equations (PDEs) have analytical, or closed-form solutions. This motivates a vast amount of classical work on numerical simulation of PDEs […]

Search for a dark photon and an invisible dark Higgs boson in $μ^+μ^-$ and missing energy final states with the Belle II experiment

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, F. Abudinén, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal, H. Aihara | Summary: The dark photon $A^prime$ and the dark Higgs boson $h^prime$ are hypothetical particles predicted in many dark sector models. We search for the simultaneous production of $A^prime$ and $h^prime$ in the dark Higgsstrahlung process […]
