High-Pass Filtering and Gaussian Process Regularization: Stellar Activity Characterization Techniques Applied to the 55 Cancri Planetary System
Doppler planet searches are complicated by stellar activity, through which cyclical changes in the host star's photosphere and chromosphere can mask or mimic planetary signals. A popular technique for modeling stellar activity is to apply a quasiperiodic Gaussian process (GP) kernel, which provides a flexible model with rigorous error propagation. However, observers must guard against overfitting, as a GP may be flexible enough to subsume other signals besides the one it is intended to model. T…

Russland kündigt Anti-Folter-Konvention auf
Russland plant, offiziell aus der europäischen Anti-Folter-Konvention auszusteigen. Präsident Wladimir Putin hat dem Parlament, der Staatsduma in Moskau, einen Gesetzentwurf dazu vorgelegt, wie die staatliche Nachrichtenagentur Tass meldete. Mit dem Ausstieg würde auch die letzte Möglichkeit für das Anti-Folter-Komitee des Europarates entfallen, die Lage in russischen Gefängnissen u…

Fragmentation-limited dust filtration in 2D simulations of planet-disk systems with dust coagulation. Parameter study and implications for the inner disk's dust mass budget and composition
Super-thermal gas giant planets or their progenitor cores are known to open deep gaps in protoplanetary disks, which stop large, drifting dust particles on their way to the inner disk. The possible separation of the disk into distinct reservoirs and the resulting dust depletion interior to the gap have important implications for planetesimal formation and the chemical and isotopic composition of the inner regions of protoplanetary disks. Dust fragmentation, however, maintains a reservoir of sma…

Effect of Stokes number on erosion on Pelton buckets for sediment-laden flows
With increased glacial melting and the need to maintain sediment continuity for ecosystem health, sediment-laden flows through hydropower plants are becoming increasingly problematic, particularly due to erosion on runner blades and buckets. A widely used mitigation strategy is the use of filters to protect Pelton turbines. However, these filters lead to rapid sediment accumulation in reservoirs, which must be drained frequently to maintain storage capacity. The high cost of such drainage opera…

Apple plante einst iPad mit nur 8 GByte
Ein Apple-Prototyp-Sammler hat ein Gerät entdeckt, das so glücklicherweise nie auf den Markt kam: Ein Einsteiger-iPad von 2011, das kaum zu benutzen war.

Fixed a recently reported, asan-caught UaF in ngscopeclient earlier today when loading session files containing a protocol analyzer.
Apparently the analyzer never called AddRef() / Release() on the filter and could thus outlive it.
Yet another reason why the planned refactoring of filter ownership to use std::shared_ptr's rather than manual hand refcounting can't come soon enough. Just need to ship v0.1 first...

Why did we add Planned Dates to OmniFocus 4.7, when we already have both Due Dates and Defer Dates?
Defer Dates and Due Dates express constraints: you can't work on something before a date, or you need to finish something by a date. They affect the task's status: it's not available until its Defer Date, and it's overdue after its Due Date.
Planned Dates don't affect a task's status, they simply schedule when you currently plan to do the task. Goodbye, fake…

Planned versus Deferred date intended usage?
The defer date indicates when you want a task to become available. Until that date, it won’t show up in any perspectives that are filtering out unavailable tasks. It’s a way of hiding future work so it’s not distracting you today. You’ll start to see available tasks in various perspectives as soon as they’ve reached their defer date. The new planned date is for scheduling when you actually plan to do the task. It could be days or weeks or months later than the defer date. It doesn’…

Enhanced Pebble Drift Across Planet-Opened Gaps in Windy Protoplanetary Disks

Enhanced Pebble Drift Across Planet-Opened Gaps in Windy Protoplanetary Disks
When a giant planet forms in a protoplanetary disks, it carves a gap around its orbit separating the disk into two parts: inner disk and outer disk. Traditional disk accretion models, which assume material transport is driven by viscosity, reveal that the planet-induced gap acts like a filter which blocks large dust grains from flowing into the inner disk. However, there is growing evidence that material transport may be driven by magnetically-driven winds instead. By carrying out a suite of tw…

Diamond-loaded polyimide aerogel scattering filters and their applications in astrophysical and planetary science observations
Infrared-blocking, aerogel-based scattering filters have a broad range of potential applications in astrophysics and planetary science instruments in the far-infrared, sub-millimeter, and microwave regimes. This paper demonstrates the ability of conductively-loaded, polyimide aerogel filters to meet the mechanical and science instrument requirements for several experiments, including the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS), the Experiment for Cryogenic Large-Aperture Intensity Mappin…
