Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: William Schultz, Lars Bildsten, Yan-Fei Jiang, , | Summary: The outer envelopes of massive ($Mgtrsim10,M_{odot}$) stars exhibit large increases in opacities from forests of lines and ionization transitions (particularly from iron and helium) that trigger near-surface convection zones. One-dimensional models predict density inversions and supersonic motions that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Matthew Ennis, Rabindranath Bag, Chunxiao Liu, Sachith E. Dissanayake, Alexander I. Kolesnikov | Summary: We have synthesized high-quality single crystal samples of the erbium-based triangular lattice compound Ba3Er(BO3)3. Thermal and magnetic measurements reveal large anisotropy and a possible phase transition at 100 mK. The low-temperature magnetic heat […]
Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Leonie Woodland, Izabella Lovas, M. Telling, D. Prabhakaran, Leon Balents | Summary: We present experimental and theoretical evidence of novel bound state formation in the low transverse field ordered phase of the quasi-one-dimensional Ising-like material CoNb$_2$O$_6$. High resolution single crystal inelastic neutron scattering measurements observe that small […]

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Maria Tikhanovskaya, Ali Lavasani, Matthew P. A. Fisher, Sagar Vijay, | Summary: The linear cross-entropy (LXE) has been recently proposed as a scalable probe of the measurement-driven phase transition between volume- and area-law-entangled phases of pure-state trajectories in certain monitored quantum circuits. Here, we demonstrate […]

Kavli Affiliate: John E. Bowers | First 5 Authors: Sudip Shekhar, Wim Bogaerts, Lukas Chrostowski, John E. Bowers, Michael Hochberg | Summary: Silicon photonics has developed into a mainstream technology driven by advances in optical communications. The current generation has led to a proliferation of integrated photonic devices from thousands to millions – mainly in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Ethan C. McGarrigle, Kris T. Delaney, Leon Balents, Glenn H. Fredrickson | Summary: Recent experiments have shown how the interplay between Bose statistics and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) can lead to superfluid liquid crystalline (stripe) analogues in cold atomic gases. For isotropic SOC in two spatial dimensions, a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Ethan C. McGarrigle, Kris T. Delaney, Leon Balents, Glenn H. Fredrickson, | Summary: We report the first observation of a “spin microemulsion”– a phase with undulating spin domains resembling classical bicontinuous oil-water-surfactant emulsions — in two-dimensional systems of spinor Bose-Einstein condensates with isotropic Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Using […]
