Massive cosmological correlators exhibit a rich hypergeometric structure already at tree level, reflecting the distorted propagation of particles in de Sitter spacetime. In this paper, we reveal that this apparent complexity conceals a remarkably simple underlying mathematical structure. Using the spectral representation, we compute...
We present HyperIso, a new standalone program for the evaluation of flavour physics observables across a wide variety of Standard Model (SM) and Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) scenarios. The code builds on the physics heritage of SuperIso, but is implemented as a new modular software package with a modern C++ core and multiple user...
Magnetometers are among the most widely used probes in science and technology. Comagnetometers increase sensitivity by self-cancellation of magnetic noise, but only at low frequencies. We suggest a correlated measurement of two alkali species in one cell to cancel the magnetic background also at high frequencies. The inter-species...
We perform a search for continuous gravitational waves from J0435+3233 using LIGO O4a public data. J0435+3233 is unique among millisecond pulsars as it exhibits an exceptionally large spin-down and marks the first pulsar observed to date with a spin-down larger than $10^{-12}$ Hz/s in the sub $10$ ms spin period range, making it a...
Non-Abelian gauge fields play a key role in describing the behavior of particles whose motion is coupled to internal degrees of freedom, such as their spin. Here, we experimentally realize a tuneable non-Abelian gauge field in an active mechanical lattice by using pairs of oscillators to encode a local pseudo-spin for each site, with...
Lithium adsorption and intercalation can significantly modify the low-energy electronic properties of graphene-based materials, making their characterization relevant for understanding Li-ion transport and storage in graphitic electrodes. In this work, we investigate the electronic structure of a Li ion adsorbed on monolayer graphene...
Electronic orbital character plays a central role in determining electronic correlations, spin-orbit coupling, dimensionality, and ultimately the quantum phases of condensed-matter systems. Two-dimensional moiré materials have emerged as highly tunable platforms for exploring correlated phenomena, but the role of orbital degrees of...
We construct a novel theoretical baseline for dynamical transverse momentum correlations, $C_{pT}$, across a wide range of collision energies spanning the RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES) program. For the first time, a unified framework is developed to describe the energy and centrality dependence of $C_{p_{\rm T}}$ from...
When two metal blocks are squeezed together the stresses in the asperity contact regions are usually so large that the asperities deform plastically, at least at short length scales. Many tribology properties of contacts, such as the contact stiffness and the electric and thermal contact resistance, and the fluid flow at interfaces,...
A reliable computation of the bubble wall velocity during a cosmological phase transition requires an adequate modeling of the non-equilibrium dynamics in the vicinity of this expanding bubble. This task can be made computationally faster by imposing an \emph{Ansatz} on the shape of the non-equilibrium particle distribution function,...
Real-time decoding is a critical bottleneck for large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing. AI-based neural pre-decoders locally correct most physical errors before passing residual syndromes to a global decoder, enabling sub-microsecond latencies. However, existing architectures carry significant overhead from dense 3D...
A recent paper [Hazeltine, et al., Phys. Plasmas 33, 072501 (2026)] has questioned whether the standard result, (ultimately) due to Ferraro, that the plasma angular velocity is approximately constant along individual equilibrium magnetic field-lines in a rotating axisymmetric magnetic mirror machine, continues to hold when the...
We investigate entropy production and nonequilibrium transport in a class of random dynamical systems modeling a Knudsen gas confined to a compartmented container. The system consists of a single particle undergoing random billiard motion, with collisions leading to random reflection or transmission through semi-reflecting,...
Disordered systems such as spin glasses and polymers characteristically exhibit random energy landscapes with many macroscopically separated energetic valleys corresponding to near-ground states. This high complexity renders these systems extremely sensitive to perturbations of external parameters. For instance, the support of...
The HeI triplet line (1083 nm), together with hydrodynamic models, can be used to characterize atmospheric escape of exoplanets. However, most of the available models cannot capture the three dimensional (3D) physics of escaping atmospheres, such as tidal forces and the interaction with stellar winds. To investigate how 3D effects...
Wide stellar binaries are sensitive dynamical probes of dark matter substructure. We generalize existing point-mass disruption constraints to spherical extended dark objects and apply the resulting framework to the population of wide-binary candidates identified in the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Bootes I. We derive 95% confidence limits...
We present anyakrakusuma, an open-source Python library that solves the discrete static Schrödinger bridge problem, the entropically regularized counterpart of optimal transport, through a log-domain Sinkhorn--Knopp iteration and reconstructs the entropic interpolation between two empirical point clouds. The solver is paired with a...
We investigate the role of excitonic correlations in shaping the ultrafast dynamics of photoexcited carriers in semiconductors. Conventional approaches describe relaxation within single-particle frameworks, where electron-electron and electron-phonon scattering drive thermalization toward Fermi-Dirac distributions, neglecting...
Machine learning potential-driven molecular dynamics simulations (ML-MD) were employed to provide atomistic insights into the dehydrogenation kinetics of pristine and doped MgH2. Through systematic investigation of distinct surface orientations, the MgH2 (100) surface was identified as the most active low-index surface for hydrogen...
Human visual similarity judgments are context-dependent. For example, two images may be similar in shape but distinct in color. Existing perceptual similarity metrics, however, collapse these nuances into a single scalar value, offering no mechanism to condition on specific aspects. To bridge this gap, we introduce a large-scale...
Pretrained dense visual features from Vision Transformers (ViTs) are powerful yet have been underutilized in robot learning. Modern robot policies either compress each observation into a single global token, or rely on visual backbones trained from scratch, sacrificing both fine-grained spatial detail and the benefits of large-scale...
Autonomous discovery systems such as OpenEvolve and TTT-Discover are often used as general-purpose harnesses. However, in practice these are composite systems combining several design choices about archives, parent selection, exploration, and budget allocation into a single recipe. Because discovery runs are expensive and inherently...
Users frequently express their beliefs to large language models (LLMs). In some situations, the LLM should accept these contextual beliefs as true. In others, they should stick to their prior knowledge. Notably, users' expressions of belief (EoBs) can take linguistically diverse forms - using presuppositions, evidential and certainty...
Vision-language-action (VLA) models have achieved impressive generalization in robotic manipulation, and recent memory-augmented VLAs have relaxed the Markovian assumption by conditioning on past images or language summaries. Vision-based memory approaches address this by conditioning on sampled past image frames, but they are...
Modern vision-language models (VLMs) have significantly improved image generation and editing capabilities, making pixel-level image tampering detection increasingly important yet challenging under cross-model and out-of-distribution shifts. This work studies domain generalization for pixel-level image tampering detection in modern...
