Sensitivity analysis for publication bias in meta-analysis of sparse data based on exact likelihood

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Taojun Hu, Yi Zhou, Satoshi Hattori, , | Summary: Meta-analysis is a powerful tool to synthesize findings from multiple studies. The normal-normal random-effects model is widely used to account for between-study heterogeneity. However, meta-analysis of sparse data, which may arise when the event rate is low for […]

Correlation decoupling of Casimir interaction in an electrolyte driven by external electric fields

Kavli Affiliate: Rudolf Podgornik | First 5 Authors: Guangle Du, David S. Dean, Bing Miao, Rudolf Podgornik, | Summary: It has been established for a long time that the long range van der Waals or thermal Casimir interaction between two semi-infinite dielectrics separated by a distance $H$ is screened by an intervening electrolyte. Here we […]

Magnetic field control of continuous Néel vector rotation and Néel temperature in a van der Waals antiferromagnet

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Zhuoliang Ni, Urban Seifert, Amanda V. Haglund, Nan Huang, David G. Mandrus | Summary: In a collinear antiferromagnet, spins tend to cant towards the direction of an applied magnetic field, thereby decreasing the energy of the system. The canting angle becomes negligible when the magnetic field is […]

Magneto-Induced Topological Phase Transition in Inverted InAs/GaSb Bilayers

Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Zhongdong Han, Tingxin Li, Long Zhang, Rui-Rui Du, | Summary: We report a magneto-induced topological phase transition in inverted InAs/GaSb bilayers from a quantum spin Hall insulator to a normal insulator. We utilize a dual-gated Corbino device in which the degree of band inversion, or equivalently the […]
