The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) mission, led by ESA, has an Ultraviolet Spectrograph (JUICE-UVS) contributed by NASA and built at Southwest Research Institute. JUICE-UVS is designed to provide a diversity of measurements to further our understanding of the potential habitability of icy ocean worlds at Jupiter and to study...
We report a day-scale hard lag between GeV and TeV $γ$-ray emission from the HBL 1ES~1959+650 in early 2024. Since the LHAASO-WCDA real-time monitoring system began operation in late 2023, multiple TeV flares from this source have been triggered, including the 1st trigger flare on 2024 February 9. A Bayesian-block analysis of the WCDA...
Fibre-based quantum networks distributing polarization entanglement require a stable and uninterrupted transmission basis for reliable operation. Bright classical reference light enables rapid polarization feedback but can introduce noise into quantum channels. Entangled-photon-based feedback avoids this noise, but typically...
The "left-hand cut problem" in lattice QCD arises when exchange singularities invalidate standard relations used to extract scattering amplitudes from the finite-volume spectrum. In recent years, several approaches were proposed to resolve this problem. We establish analytically and verify numerically the equivalence between the...
Meshfree methods such as smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) with kernel corrections, radial basis function-generated finite differences (RBF-FD), and the local anisotropic basis function method (LABFM) construct discrete differential operators by imposing polynomial consistency on a local stencil. For stencils containing more nodes...
The search for wave-like dark matter using microwave cavity haloscopes is constrained by the Standard Quantum Limit, which dictates that phase-preserving linear amplification results in a minimum of one quantum of total system noise for a narrow-band signal. We demonstrate that this limit is effectively halved for a non-monochromatic...
Within a normalised six-dimensional model of dissipative optomechanics (one cavity + two mechanical resonators), a synthetic-flux phase $Φ_{\rm syn}$ selects the \emph{order} of a drive- and coupling-gated hyperchaos transition---up to four simultaneously unstable Lyapunov directions, beyond any reported single-mode benchmark---while...
In this work, we build on Ref.~[Phys.~Rev.~D 112, 124060 (2025)], where we derived the dynamics of an electrically charged binary system at second post-Newtonian (2PN) order, by extending the analysis, at the same PN accuracy, to the associated emission of electromagnetic and gravitational radiation. We focus on non-spinning binaries...
Low-temperature operation imposes severe limitations on lithium-ion transport in battery electrolytes, yet the coupled effects of solvent composition and fluorinated additives in the cold-temperature regime remain insufficiently resolved. Here, we combine classical molecular dynamics (MD) and machine learning (ML) to investigate 1 M...
We report on a search for dark matter particles interacting with xenon nuclei in an exposure of 2.84 tonne-years with the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment. An extended nuclear recoil energy window up to approximately 270 keV enables searches for effective field theory and inelastic models of dark matter where high-energy recoils account for...
The late-time ringdown dynamics of near-extremal black holes (BHs) are expected to be dominated by zero-damped modes (ZDMs), whose decay rates are parametrically suppressed relative to those of ordinary quasinormal modes. In this paper, we demonstrate that exact WKB methods provide an exceptionally powerful framework for analyzing the...
A standard approach for studying magic angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG)'s correlated electronic phase diagram is to project the Coulomb interaction down to effective models only involving electrons in single-particle flat bands and some nearby remote bands. We provide a novel systematic derivation of a single-particle continuum...
Motivated by the question of whether the internal scales of a compactification can be parametrically decoupled from the external curvature scale, and by the possibility of probing such vacua holographically, we construct the first AdS$_2$ flux vacua with parametric scale separation. We compactify type II string theory on a $G_2$...
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has been in operation for over 17 years, during which it has observed more than a thousand bursts from soft gamma repeaters (SGRs), also known as magnetars. Serving as a laboratory for extreme physics, magnetars are a sub-family of neutron stars characterized by extreme magnetic field strength,...
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment has reported one nuclear recoil event reconstructed at $E_R=248\pm23_{\rm stat}\pm23_{\rm sys}$\,keV in a search extending to $E_R\simeq270$\,keV. We investigate an inelastic electroweak (EW) doublet interpretation in which spontaneous Peccei--Quinn (PQ) breaking leaves a residual parity that stabilizes...
INELFE interconnector consists of a 2x1000 MW high voltage direct current system based on voltage source converters (VSC-HVDC) interconnecting France and Spain. INELFE VSC-HVDC link is embedded into the high voltage alternating current (HVAC) system. Electromechanical oscillations, also known as power oscillations, are a major concern...
Automatic mixing transforms multitrack recordings into perceptually coherent, balanced, and aesthetically consistent mixes. In real-world production, this task is challenging due to large track counts, diverse instrumentation, and strong inter-track dependencies. Two-stage systems address this complexity by separating intra-group...
Traditional speaker-attributed ASR systems treated ASR and speaker diarization as two separate tasks. Recently, end-to-end models such as VibeVoice-ASR have unified the two tasks within a single model. However, existing unified models still mainly support offline recognition, making it difficult to meet the low-latency requirements of...
One of the most effective ways to damp electromechanical oscillations in power systems is by means of supplementary controllers attached to the different devices in the power system is by means of power system stabilizers (PSS) in synchronous machines or by means of power oscillation damping (POD) controllers in facilities with power...
Dry-contact ear-electroencephalography (Ear-EEG) enables wearable neural monitoring. However, motion induced electrode-skin impedance (ESI) mismatches between electrodes can severely degrade signal quality. To the best of our knowledge, this paper presents the first proof-of-concept dry-contact EarEEG system that uses a...
Ultra-low-field MRI makes neonatal brain imaging deploy- able in low-resource settings, but its low SNR, lack of shielding, and long scan duration make it especially prone to acquisition artifacts, motivating automated quality control. We address the LISA 2026 Task 1a challenge: multi-label severity grading (0/1/2) of seven common...
This paper documents the acoustic-radio fusion in Techtile (ARFT) dataset, a synchronized measurement campaign for distributed wireless sensing and positioning in the Techtile testbed. Ultrasonic and radio frequency (RF) signals are simultaneously transmitted and captured at multiple positions in a 2D spatial grid inside the Techtile...
Fluid antenna systems (FAS) obtain spatial degrees of freedom by activating a few radiating ports from a dense grid of candidates, but deciding which ports to activate presupposes channel knowledge at ports that are never measured. Prior port-selection work assumes full or near-full channel state information (CSI) and treats the pilot...
Conventional designs for model predictive control typically rely on terminal costs and constraints derived from a steady state to guarantee closed-loop stability and performance. However, this dependence on a steady-state assumption limits the applicability of this control method to systems in which such a fixed operating point is...
This paper investigates the stealthy attack detection for sensor-fusion cyber-physical systems with unknown-but-bounded noises through the control channel. The detection framework is particularly applicable to sensor-fusion scenarios in which multiple suspicious sensors contributing to the fused estimate may be compromised...
