Stress tensor mesostructures for freeform shaping of thin substrates

Kavli Affiliate: Youwei Yao | First 5 Authors: Youwei Yao, Brandon Chalifoux, Ralf Heilmann, Mark Schattenburg, | Summary: Stress-induced shaping, which deforms thin substrates utilizing stressed surface coatings, has enabled and enhanced a host of applications in past decades. Owing to the touchless fabrication process compatible with modern planar technology, the method has been applied […]

Directional excitation of a high-density magnon gas using coherently driven spin waves

Kavli Affiliate: Toeno Van Der Sar | First 5 Authors: Brecht G. Simon, Samer Kurdi, Helena La, Iacopo Bertelli, Joris J. Carmiggelt | Summary: Controlling magnon densities in magnetic materials enables driving spin transport in magnonic devices. We demonstrate the creation of large, out-of-equilibrium magnon densities in a thin-film magnetic insulator via microwave excitation of […]

Two-photon sideband transition in a driven quantum Rabi model : Quantitative discussions with derived longitudinal drives and beyond the rotating wave approximation

Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Byoung-moo Ann, Wouter Kessels, Gary A. Steele, , | Summary: In this work, we analytically and numerically study the sideband transition dynamics of the driven quantum Rabi model (QRM). We focus in particular on the conditions when the external transverse drive fields induce first-order sideband transitions. […]

Revised event rates for extreme and extremely large mass-ratio inspirals

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Verónica Vázquez-Aceves, Lorenz Zwick, Elisa Bortolas, Pedro R. Capelo, Pau Amaro-Seoane | Summary: One of the main targets of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is the detection of extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) and extremely large mass-ratio inspirals (X-MRIs). Their orbits are expected to be highly eccentric […]

Entropy-Conserving Scheme for Modeling Nonthermal Energies in Fluid Dynamics Simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey V. Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Vadim A. Semenov, Andrey V. Kravtsov, Benedikt Diemer, , | Summary: We compare the performance of energy-based and entropy-conservative schemes for modeling nonthermal energy components, such as unresolved turbulence and cosmic rays, using idealized fluid dynamics tests and isolated galaxy simulations. While both methods are aimed […]

What it Takes to Measure Reionization with Fast Radio Bursts

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Stefan Heimersheim, Nina S. Sartorio, Anastasia Fialkov, Duncan R. Lorimer, | Summary: Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are recently-discovered extra-galactic radio transients which exhibit a distance-dependent dispersion of their signal, and thus can be used as cosmological probes. In this article we, for the first time, apply a […]
