Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Jie Gu, Liguo Ma, Song Liu, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Two-dimensional (2D) moire materials provide a new solid-state platform with unprecedented controllability for studies of correlated quantum phenomena. To date, experimental studies have focused on the correlated electronic states; the correlated bosonic states in moire […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Amirparsa Zivari, Robert Stockill, Niccolò Fiaschi, Simon Gröblacher, | Summary: Quantum optics – the creation, manipulation and detection of non-classical states of light – is a fundamental cornerstone of modern physics, with many applications in basic and applied science. Achieving the same level of control over phonons, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hu Zhan | First 5 Authors: Kai Xiao, Haibo Yuan, J. Varela, Hu Zhan, Jifeng Liu | Summary: Understanding the origins of small-scale flats of CCDs and their wavelength-dependent variations plays an important role in high-precision photometric, astrometric, and shape measurements of astronomical objects. Based on the unique flat data of 47 narrow-band […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Fan Hu, Zhuo Li, Donglian Xu, , | Summary: Cosmic neutrinos are unique probes of the high energy universe. IceCube has discovered a diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux since 2013, but their origin remains elusive. The potential sources could include, for example, active galactic nuclei, gamma-ray bursts and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Arkadev Roy, Rajveer Nehra, Saman Jahani, Luis Ledezma, Carsten Langrock | Summary: A plethora of applications have recently motivated extensive efforts on the generation of low noise Kerr solitons and coherent frequency combs in various platforms ranging from fiber to whispering gallery and integrated microscale resonators. However, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Yasunori Lee, Kantaro Ohmori, Yuji Tachikawa, , | Summary: We study higher symmetries and anomalies of 4d $mathfrak{so}(2n_c)$ gauge theory with $2n_f$ flavors. We find that they depend on the parity of $n_c$ and $n_f$, the global form of the gauge group, and the discrete theta angle. […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Avishek Das, Benjamin Kuznets-Speck, David T. Limmer, , | Summary: Active matter represents a broad class of systems that evolve far from equilibrium due to the local injection of energy. Like their passive analogues, transformations between distinct metastable states in active matter proceed through rare fluctuations, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Christopher J. Burke | First 5 Authors: Trifon Trifonov, Rafael Brahm, Nestor Espinoza, Thomas Henning, Andrés Jordán | Summary: TOI-2202 b is a transiting warm Jovian-mass planet with an orbital period of P=11.91 days identified from the Full Frame Images data of five different sectors of the TESS mission. Ten TESS transits of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Peter W. Graham | First 5 Authors: Dmitry Budker, Peter W. Graham, Harikrishnan Ramani, Ferdinand Schmidt-Kaler, Christian Smorra | Summary: We propose the use of trapped ions for detection of millicharged dark matter. Millicharged particles will scatter off the ions, giving a signal either in individual events or in the overall heating rate […]
