Kavli Affiliate: Ralf K. Heilmann | First 5 Authors: Hans Moritz Günther, Ralf K. Heilmann, , , | Summary: Lynx is one of four large-mission concept studies for NASA’s 2020 Decadal survey. The design reference mission includes an X-ray grating spectrometer (XGS) based on critical-angle transmission (CAT) gratings. In the past we studied different grating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Hans Moritz Günther, Herman L. Marshall, Alan Garner, , | Summary: X-ray polarimetry is still largely uncharted territory. With the upcoming launch of IXPE, we will learn a lot more about X-ray polarization at energies above 2 keV, but so far no current or accepted mission […]
Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Taisuke Katayose, Shigeki Matsumoto, Satoshi Shirai, , | Summary: Electroweakly Interacting Massive Particles (EWIMPs), in other words, new massive particles that are charged under the electroweak interaction of the Standard Model (SM), are often predicted in various new physics models. EWIMPs are probed at hadron collider experiments […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Byoung-moo Ann, Wouter Kessels, Gary. A. Steele, , | Summary: Driving quantum systems periodically in time plays an essential role in the coherent control of quantum states. The rotating wave approximation (RWA) is a good approximation technique for weak and nearly-resonance driven fields. However, these experiments […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Haojing Shen, Sihong Chen, Ran Wang, Xizhao Wang, | Summary: In this paper, we propose a defence strategy to improve adversarial robustness by incorporating hidden layer representation. The key of this defence strategy aims to compress or filter input information including adversarial perturbation. And this defence strategy […]
Kavli Affiliate: Peter W. Graham | First 5 Authors: Michael A. Fedderke, Peter W. Graham, Surjeet Rajendran, , | Summary: The gravitational coupling of nearby massive bodies to test masses in a gravitational wave (GW) detector cannot be shielded, and gives rise to ‘gravity gradient noise’ (GGN) in the detector. In this paper we show […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Zucker | First 5 Authors: Weixiang Jin, Michael Zucker, Arnd Pralle, , | Summary: Some anesthetics bind and potentiate gamma-aminobutyric-acid-type receptors, but no universal mechanism for general anesthesia is known. Furthermore, often encountered complications such as anesthesia induced amnesia are not understood. General anesthetics are hydrophobic molecules easily dissolving into lipid bilayers. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Miller | First 5 Authors: Ruijie Jiang, Julia Gouvea, David Hammer, Eric Miller, Shuchin Aeron | Summary: Qualitative analysis of verbal data is of central importance in the learning sciences. It is labor-intensive and time-consuming, however, which limits the amount of data researchers can include in studies. This work is a step […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew M. Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: George Zhou, Samuel N. Quinn, Jonathan Irwin, Chelsea X. Huang, Karen A. Collins | Summary: Planets around young stars trace the early evolution of planetary systems. We report the discovery and validation of two planetary systems with ages $lesssim 300$ Myr from observations by the Transiting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shmuel M. Rubinstein | First 5 Authors: Anais Abramian, Emmanuel Virot, Emilio Lozano, Shmuel M. Rubinstein, Tobias M. Schneider | Summary: From soda cans to space rockets, thin-walled cylindrical shells are abundant, offering exceptional load carrying capacity at relatively low weight. However, the actual load at which any shell buckles and collapses is […]
