New Constraints on Dark Photon Dark Matter with Superconducting Nanowire Detectors in an Optical Haloscope

June 10, 2022
Author(s)
Jeff Chiles, Ilya Charaev, Asimina Arvanitaki, Masha Baryakhtar, junwu huang, Robert Lasenby, Ken Van Tillburg, Alexana Roshko, George Burton, Marco Colangelo, Sae Woo Nam, Karl Berggren
Uncovering the nature of dark matter is one of the most important goals of particle physics. Light bosonic particles, such as the dark photon, are well-motivated candidates: they are generically long-lived, weakly-interacting, and naturally produced in the

Physics-assisted Generative Adversarial Network for X-Ray Tomography

June 10, 2022
Author(s)
Zhen Guo, Jungki Song, George Barbastathis, Michael Glinsky, Courtenay Vaughan, Kurt Larson, Bradley Alpert, Zachary H. Levine
X-ray tomography is capable of imaging the interior of objects in three dimensions non-invasively, with applications in biomedical imaging, materials study, electronic inspection, and other fields. The reconstruction process can be an ill-conditioned

Evidence that gecko setae are coated with an ordered nanometer-thin lipid film

June 9, 2022
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Mette Rasmussen, Katinka Holler, Joe Baio, Stanislav Gorb, Tobias Weidner
Motivated by the fascination of gecko adhesion based on the fibrous setae at the tips of their toe pads and their potential for biomimetic applications, the adhesion mechanism has been studied in detail. While the mechanism has been shown to be based on

High Energy X-Ray Diffraction and Small-Angle Scattering Measurements of Hydrogen Fatigue Damage in AISI 4130 Steel

June 4, 2022
Author(s)
Matthew Connolly, May Ling Martin, Peter Bradley, Damian Lauria, Andrew Slifka, Jun-Sang Park, Robert Amaro, Jonathan Almer
Accurate lifetime predictions are critical for repurposing existing pipelines for hydrogen transmission as well as for developing novel steels which are minimally susceptible to lifetime degradation by hydrogen. Ultimately, lifetime prediction models

Measurement-induced quantum phases realized in a trapped-ion quantum computer

June 2, 2022
Author(s)
Michael Gullans, Alexey Gorshkov, David Huse, Christopher Monroe, Crystal Noel, Pradeep Niroula, Daiwei Zhu, Andrew Risinger, Laird Egan, Debopriyo Biswas, Marko Cetina
Many-body open quantum systems balance internal dynamics against decoherence from interactions with an environment. Here, we explore this balance via random quantum circuits implemented on a trapped-ion quantum computer, where the system evolution is

Experimental Realization of Neutron Helical Waves

May 11, 2022
Author(s)
Michael G. Huber, Charles W. Clark, Dmitry Pushin, Connor Kapahi, Lisa DeBeer-Schmitt, David Cory, Huseyin Ekinci, Melissa Henderson, Dusan Sarenac
Methods of preparation and analysis of structured waves of light, electrons, and atoms have been advancing rapidly. Despite the proven power of neutrons for material characterization and studies of fundamental physics, neutron science has not been able to

Measurements of Absolute, SI-traceable Lunar Irradiance with the Airborne LUnar Spectral Irradiance (air-LUSI) Instrument

May 5, 2022
Author(s)
John T. Woodward IV, Kevin Turpie, Thomas Stone, S. Andrew Gadsden, Andrew Newton, Stephen Maxwell, Steven Grantham, Thomas Larason, Steven W. Brown
The Airborne LUnar Spectral Irradiance (Air-LUSI) instrument is designed to make low uncertainty, hyperspectral measurements of the lunar spectral irradiance from an ER-2 aircraft from altitudes above 95 % to 99 % of the atmosphere. Measurements cover the

Critically Evaluated Spectral Data for Singly Ionized Carbon (C II)

May 4, 2022
Author(s)
Alexander Kramida, K. Haris
All available experimental data on the spectrum of singly ionized carbon have been critically analyzed. Measurement uncertainties of all published studies have been re-assessed. The scope of observational data includes laboratory emission spectra of arcs

Entanglement Thresholds of Doubly Parametric Quantum Transducers

April 29, 2022
Author(s)
Curtis Rau, Akira Kyle, Alexander T. Kwiatkowski, Ezad Shojaee, John Teufel, Konrad Lehnert, Tasshi Dennis
Doubly parametric quantum transducers, such as electro-optomechanical devices, show promise for providing the critical link between quantum information encoded in highly disparate frequencies such as in the optical and microwave domains. This technology

Quantum phase modulation with acoustic cavities and quantum dots

April 29, 2022
Author(s)
Poolad Imany, Zixuan Wang, Ryan DeCrescent, Robert Boutelle, Corey McDonald, Travis Autry, Samuel Berweger, Pavel Kabos, Sae Woo Nam, Richard Mirin, Kevin L. Silverman
Fast, efficient, and low-power modulation of light at microwave frequencies is crucial for chip-scale classical and quantum processing as well as for long-range networks of superconducting quantum processors. A successful approach to bridge the gap between
