All-sky search for gravitational wave emission from scalar boson clouds around spinning black holes in LIGO O3 data by Sudhir, Vivishek

“…This paper describes the first all-sky search for long-duration, quasimonochromatic gravitational-wave signals emitted by ultralight scalar boson clouds around spinning black holes using data from the third observing run of Advanced LIGO. We analyze the frequency range from 20 to 610 Hz, over a small frequency derivative range around zero, and use multiple frequency resolutions to be robust towards possible signal frequency wanderings. …”

All-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars using Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo O3 data by Sudhir, Vivishek

“…We present results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves which can be produced by spinning neutron stars with an asymmetry around their rotation axis, using data from the third observing run of the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors. Four different analysis methods are used to search in a gravitational-wave frequency band from 10 to 2048 Hz and a first frequency derivative from − 10 − 8 to 10 − 9     Hz / s . …”

Event-driven spiking neural networks using asynchronous-logic network-on-chip routers in field programmable gate array (FPGA) by Wu, Si

“…Compared with the second-generation neural network, SNN uses spikes to process information. The neuronal units in SNNs are only active when they receive or emit spikes, so it is event-driven, thus making it energy-efficient. …”

Dok3 restrains neutrophil production of calprotectin during TLR4 sensing of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein by Loh, Jia Tong, Teo, Joey Kay Hui, Lam, Kong-Peng

“…In this study, we showed that Dok3 adaptor restrains calprotectin production by neutrophils in response to SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein engagement of TLR4. Dok3 recruits SHP-2 to mediate the de-phosphorylation of MyD88 at Y257, thereby attenuating downstream JAK2-STAT3 signaling and calprotectin production. …”

Ultrahigh green and red optical gain cross sections from solutions of colloidal quantum well heterostructures by Delikanli, Savas, Erdem, Onur, Isik, Furkan, Dehghanpour Baruj, Hamed, Shabani, Farzan, Yagci, Huseyin Bilge, Durmusoglu, Emek Goksu, Demir, Hilmi Volkan

“…To explain the root cause for ultrahigh gain coefficient in solution, we show for the first time that the gain cross sections of these CQWs is ≥3.3 × 10–14 cm2 in the green and ≥1.3 × 10–14 cm2 in the red, which are two orders of magnitude larger compared to those of CQDs.…”
