Utopia: Fast and Efficient Address Translation via Hybrid Restrictive & Flexible Virtual-to-Physical Address Mappings

Konstantinos Kanellopoulos, Rahul Bera, Kosta Stojiljkovic +8

Conventional virtual memory (VM) frameworks enable a virtual address to flexibly map to any physical address. This flexibility necessitates large data structures to store virtual-t…

GW190425: Observation of a Compact Binary Coalescence with Total Mass

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1199

On 2019 April 25, the LIGO Livingston detector observed a compact binary coalescence with signal-to-noise ratio 12.9. The Virgo detector was also taking data that did not contribut…

Graphene made easy: high quality, large-area samples

Abhay Shukla, Rakesh Kumar, Javed Mazher +1

We show that by using an original method, bulk graphite can be bonded onto borosilicate glass or potentially any insulating substrate with ionic conductivity and then cleaved off t…

Narrowband searches for continuous and long-duration transient gravitational waves from known pulsars in the LIGO-Virgo third observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1658

Isolated neutron stars that are asymmetric with respect to their spin axis are possible sources of detectable continuous gravitational waves. This paper presents a fully-coherent s…
