Exploration of magnetoelastic deformations in spin-chain compound CuBr$_2$

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Biaoyan Hu, Yingying Peng, Xiaoqiang Liu, Qizhi Li, Qiangqiang Gu | Summary: We investigate a spin-$frac{1}{2}$ antiferromagnet, CuBr$_2$, which has quasi-one-dimensional structural motifs. The system has previously been observed to exhibit unusual Raman modes possibly due to a locally deformed crystal structure driven by the low-dimensional magnetism. […]

The Supersonic Project: Lighting up the faint end of the JWST UV luminosity function

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Claire E. Williams, William Lake, Smadar Naoz, Blakesley Burkhart, Tommaso Treu | Summary: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is capable of probing extremely early eras of our Universe when the supersonic relative motions between dark matter and baryonic overdensities modulate structure formation ($z>sim 10$). We study […]

Search for $B^{0} to K_S^{0}K_S^{0}γ$ decays at Belle

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle Collaboration, H. B. Jeon, K. H. Kang, H. Park, I. Adachi | Summary: We report the first search for the penguin-dominated process $B^0 rightarrow K_S^0 K_S^0 gamma$ using the full data sample of $772times 10^6$ $Bbar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy […]

Effective Field Theory for Acoustic and Pseudo-Acoustic Phonons in Solids

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia | First 5 Authors: Angelo Esposito, Emma Geoffray, Tom Melia, , | Summary: We present a relativistic effective field theory for the interaction between acoustic and gapped phonons in the limit of a small gap. We show that, while the former are the Goldstone modes associated with the spontaneous breaking of […]
