abstract：:We investigate whether the collapse of the quantum state of a single photon split between two space-like separated places takes a nonvanishing time. We realize this by using a source of heralded single photons, then splitting the resulting single photon state and letting it propagate over distances much larger than th...

abstract：:The ability of radial glial progenitors (RGPs) to generate cortical neurons is determined by local extracellular factors and signaling pathways intrinsic to RGPs. Here we find that GPR157, an orphan G protein-coupled receptor, localizes to RGPs' primary cilia exposed to the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). GPR157 couples wi...
