The Electromagnetic Form Factors of Pseudoscalar Mesons within the Light-Front Quark Model
In this paper, we investigate the electromagnetic form factors (EMFFs) and charge radii of pseudoscalar mesons within the light-front quark model (LFQM). Using parameters derived from the confinement of mesonic decay constants, we obtain numerical results, which indicate the following: (i) The EMFFs of charged and neutral mesons exhibit significant differences in their endpoint behaviors but show similar asymptotic behavior in the high momentum transfer ($Q^2$) regions. For the EMFFs of light m…

1/2 “My input stream is full of it: Fear and loathing and cheerleading and prognosticating on what generative AI means and whether it’s Good or Bad and what we should be doing. All the channels: Blogs and peer-reviewed papers and social-media posts and business-news stories. So there’s lots of AI angst out there, but this is mine. I think the following is a bit unique because it focuses on cost, working backward from there.”

Some flying insect just flew down my polo and stung me three times. If these are my last words, please tell my family there's a reason I did not tag them in my posts.

Ähm ja... Die Umschläge lagen beide am selben Tag im Briefkasten, mit gleichem Poststempel (OK, einer A-Post, einer B-Post) und sind schön auffällig mit *PERSÖNLICH* angeschrieben. 🤦‍♀️

Sometimes you look at a graph and think that a particular value seems a bit odd. Then you look at the other numbers and they seem off, too. At that point, you realise that the graph is not intended to clarify, but to obscure. On German #EV charging prices, Quartets and diesel.

Sometimes you look at a graph and think that a particular value seems a bit odd. Then you look at the other numbers and they seem off, too. At that point, you realise that the graph is not intended to clarify, but to obscure. Thank you, Felix Hamer, for drawing attention to this recent slide from BDEW Bundesverband der Energie- und Wasserwirtschaft e.V. The title suggests that EV charging would only cost the same as filling up a diesel or petrol car for the same distance in an 'Extremszenario…

I nearly gave my credit card to a legit-looking Maine business, until I noticed their “privacy policy” linked to Wikipedia. That’s not laziness but AI-generated HTML vibecoded into place without review. And a lot more can go wrong than a missing legal page.
