Jaime Alanís died a day after a frenzied immigration raid of Glass House Farms in Ventura county
where authorities arrested at least 200 workers.
The 57-year-old, who was from the town of Huajúmbaro in Michoacšn, Mexico, is the first known person to die during the Trump administration’s enhanced immigration enforcement operations in southern California.
The federal government’s ramped up enforcement activities have brought chaos across southern California as Ice agents des…

iOS 26 beta 3 dials back Liquid Glass | TechCrunch
The early version in the first developer beta of iOS 26 and the accompanying updates for Apple's other devices still left room for improvement in terms of usability, accessibility, and legibility.

Congratulations on the retirement of Bill Curry after 13 years as head of the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences, following an already amazing, full career at Wood's Hole Oceanographic Insitution where he was a leader in marine geology, #climate and #carbon cycling research.

A Virgo Environmental Survey Tracing Ionised Gas Emission (VESTIGE). XIX. The discovery of a spectacular 230 kpc Halpha tail following NGC 4569 in the Virgo cluster
Context. Galaxies fly inside galaxy clusters and ram pressure by the ICM can remove a large amount of the ISM from the galaxy, and deposit the gas in the ICM. The ISM decoupled from the host galaxy leaves a long trail following the moving galaxy. Such long trails track the galaxy motion and can be detected with sensitive data in Halpha. Aims. We study the Halpha tail trailing NGC 4569 in the Virgo cluster. Methods. The initial discovery was made with the deep Halpha imaging data with CFHT, …

Edinburgh sees “statistically significant” shift towards cycling and walking plus reduced car use following introduction of low emission zone, finds study
Within a year, the LEZ has contributed in improving air quality, with the number of non-compliant vehicles entering the zone also decreasing significantly

The completeness of the Deligne-Ribet monoids
Following Cornelissen, Li, Marcolli, and Smit, this short paper proves that the isomorphism of the Deligne-Ribet monoids $DR_K, DR_L$ for two number fields $K, L$ implies the field isomorphism of $K$ and $L$. Thus the Deligne-Ribet monoid $DR_K$ gives a complete invariant of the number field $K$ as in the case of the absolute Galois group $G_K$.

A chemical close-up of the main body of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy
We present the chemical composition of a sample of 37 red giant branch (RGB) stars belonging to the main body of the remnant of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf spheroidal galaxy. All stars were observed with the FLAMES-UVES high-resolution spectrograph. Twenty-three new targets are selected along the blue side of the RGB of Sgr, but outside the galaxy stellar nucleus, in order to avoid contamination by the stars of the metal-poor globular cluster M54. Additionally, we re-analyzed archival spectra o…
