Can an Anti-de Sitter Vacuum in the Dark Energy Sector Explain JWST High-Redshift Galaxy and Reionization Observations?
The James Webb Space Telescope's (JWST) discovery of an unexpectedly high abundance of UV-bright galaxies at redshifts $z > 10$ poses a significant challenge to the standard $Λ$CDM cosmology. This work tests whether this tension can be resolved solely by modifying the cosmological background, without invoking significant evolution in the astrophysical properties of early galaxies. We investigate an alternative framework featuring the presence of an anti-de Sitter vacuum in the dark energy sect…

Patterns and Dynamics of Netflix TV Show Popularity
We investigate the global dynamics of media consumption by analyzing daily top-ranked Netflix TV shows across 71 countries over a span of 822 days. Using an information-theoretic framework, we quantify diversity, similarity, and directional influence in consumption trends through three core measures, Shannon entropy, mutual information, and Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence. Entropy reveals that content diversity varies by region, with North America and Europe exhibiting highly dynamic viewing p…

Jetting with gels: Soft microgel networks stabilize and extend nozzle-free water jets
The stability of high-speed liquid jets is crucial for applications ranging from precision printing to needle-free drug delivery, yet it is fundamentally limited by capillary-driven breakup. A common strategy to stabilize jets is to use surfactants to lower surface tension. However, in nozzle-free jetting driven by surface acoustic waves (SAWs), extreme deformation rates cause conventional surfactants to desorb, calling for alternative strategies to stabilize jets. In particular, we find that t…

Synchronized Circular Motion of Optically Confined Marangoni Microswimmers
Understanding the collective actuation of microscopic structures driven by external fields can lead to the development of next-generation autonomous machines. With this goal in mind, we investigated light-induced collective motion of thermocapillary microswimmers at the air-water interface. We found that Marangoni forces, which lead to long-ranged repulsive interparticle interactions, can cause microswimmers to synchronize their circular motion in a collective chase mode that resembles predator…

SKA-Low simulations for a cosmic dawn/epoch of reionisation deep field
We present a realistic simulation of an SKA-Low cosmic dawn/epoch of reionisation (CD/EoR) observation, which can be used to further the development of foreground-mitigation approaches. The simulation corresponds to a deep (1000 h) integration pointing over the 106 MHz-196 MHz frequency range. The sky components include the CD/EoR signal, extragalactic foreground emission featuring strong (over 5 Jy at 150 MHz) out-of-field sources and in-field sources down to 1 microJy at 150 MHz, and Galactic…
