Kavli Affiliate: Michael Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Jason T. Hinkle, Christopher S. Kochanek, Benjamin J. Shappee, Patrick J. Vallely, Katie Auchettl | Summary: We analyze high-cadence data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) of the ambiguous nuclear transient (ANT) ASASSN-18el. The optical changing-look phenomenon in ASASSN-18el has been argued to be due to […]

Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Michelle C. Anderson, Addison J. Schile, David T. Limmer, , | Summary: We present a means of studying rare reactive pathways in open quantum systems using Transition Path Theory and ensembles of quantum jump trajectories. This approach allows for elucidation of reactive paths for dissipative, nonadiabatic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Ya-Jing Ma, Feng Wang, Xian-Yuan Wu, Kai-Yuan Cai, | Summary: This paper focuses on the extreme-value problem for Shannon entropy of the joint distribution with given marginals. It is proved that the minimum-entropy coupling must be of order-preserving, while the maximum-entropy coupling coincides with the independent one. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Sugumi Kanno, Misao Sasaki, , , | Summary: We compute the leading order non-Gaussianity, i.e., the bispectrum, of the tensor perturbation in the general $alpha$-vacuum on de Sitter space in general relativity. In addition to the well-known Bunch-Davies (BD) vacuum, there exits an infinite number of de […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: He Liu, Ting Zhang, Ke Wang, Fei Gao, Gang Xu | Summary: Hole spins confined in semiconductor quantum dot systems have gained considerable interest for their strong spin-orbit interactions (SOIs) and relatively weak hyperfine interactions. Here we experimentally demonstrate a tunable SOI in a double quantum dot […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Julius Wanner, Eric Sihite, Alireza Ramezani, Morteza Gharib, | Summary: The feasibility of performing airborne and ground manipulation, perception, and reconnaissance using wheeled rovers, unmanned aerial vehicles, CubeSats, SmallSats and more have been evaluated before. Among all of these solutions, balloon-based systems possess merits that make them […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Vladan Markov, Stefano Carniani, Livia Vallini, Andrea Ferrara, Andrea Pallottini | Summary: A tight relation between [C II] $ 158 {rm{mu m}}$ line luminosity and star formation rate (SFR) is observed in local galaxies. At $z > 5$, galaxies instead deviate downwards from the local $Sigma_{rm{[C II]}}-Sigma_{rm{SFR}}$ […]

At high redshift (z > 5), galaxies instead deviate downwards from the local $Sigma$_[C II] […]
