Looking for other people here who're interested in analog "alt process" photography (especially Kallitype & salt prints in general) and who are also making their own prints. There used to be a few more such people in my TL, but they all seem to have vanished or stopped posting in the past year, and generally it feels there's precious little interest in this topic on Mastodon... (I too have a feeling, either my own photography went drastically downhill over the past 3-4 …

Effect of Deposition Pressure on the Superconductivity of Ti40V60 Alloy Thin Films
The growth and characterization of high quality superconducting thin films is essential for fundamental understanding and also for the use of these films in technological applications. In the present study, Ti40V60 alloy thin films have been deposited using DC magnetron co sputtering of Ti and V at ambient temperatures. The effect of deposition pressure on the film morphology, superconducting and normal state properties has been studied. Measurement of electrical resistance as a function of tem…

The Conductor and the Engine: A Path Towards Co-Designed Reasoning
Modern LLM reasoning relies on extensive test-time computation, driven by internal model training and external agentic orchestration. However, this synergy is often inefficient, as model verbosity and poor instruction following lead to wasted compute. We analyze this capability-cost trade-off and introduce an optimized reasoning workflow (\cepo) that empowers smaller open-source models to outperform models multiple times their size. We will open-source this workflow to enable further research. …

Introduction to the relative Langlands program
The aim of these notes is to give an overview of several aspects of what has come to be called the relative Langlands program, a theme that takes its origin in the study of automorphic periods and their relations to particular cases of Langlands functoriality and special values of (automorphic) $L$-functions. Following the work of Sakellaridis and Sakellaridis-Venkatesh, we emphasize the unifying role played by spherical varieties and harmonic analysis on them. We also review various instances …
