SETI@home: Data Acquisition and Front-End Processing
SETI@home is a radio Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project, looking for technosignatures in data recorded at multiple observatories from 1998 to 2020. Most radio SETI projects analyze data using dedicated processing hardware. SETI@home uses a different approach: time-domain data is distributed over the Internet to $\gt 10^{5}$ volunteered home computers, which analyze it. The large amount of computing power this affords ($\sim 10^{15}$ floating-point operations per second (FPO…

Towards Energy-Efficient Distributed Agreement
We study fault-tolerant consensus in a variant of the synchronous message passing model, where, in each round, every node can choose to be awake or asleep. This is known as the sleeping model (Chatterjee, Gmyr, Pandurangan PODC 2020) and defines the awake complexity (also called \emph{energy complexity}), which measures the maximum number of rounds that any node is awake throughout the execution. Only awake nodes can send and receive messages in a given round and all messages sent to sleeping n…

ich habe ein Packster Lastenrad.

pySpainMobility: a Python Package to Access and Manage Spanish Open Mobility Data
Mobility patterns play a critical role in a wide range of societal challenges, from epidemic modeling and emergency response to transportation planning and regional development. Yet, access to high-quality, timely, and openly available mobility data remains limited. In response, the Spanish Ministry of Transportation and Sustainable Mobility has released daily mobility datasets based on anonymized mobile phone data, covering districts, municipalities, and greater urban areas from February 2020 …

Superluminal Quantum Reference Frames
While particles cannot travel faster than the speed of light, nor can information, this assumption has over the years been frequently questioned. Most recently, it has been argued [New J. Phys. 22, 033038 (2020)] that in a world with superluminal observers local determinism is impossible, linking the two pillars of physics-quantum theory and relativity-suggesting that the latter serves as the foundation for the former. Motivated by this approach, in this work, we extend the framework of quantum…

President Donald Trump says he’s deploying 2,000 California National Guard troops to Los Angeles to respond to immigration protests, over the objections of California Gov. Gavin Newsom. It’s not the first time Trump has activated the National Guard to quell protests.

Enhancing air-shower observations: Results from an IceCube Surface Array Prototype Station
The Surface Array Enhancement of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory is set to equip the existing surface cosmic-ray array of ice-Cherenkov detectors, IceTop, with radio antennas and scintillation detectors. This can lower the energy threshold of detection and increase the measurement accuracy of IceTop. The antenna readout uses a multiplicity trigger from the scintillation detectors. A fully functioning prototype station of the enhancement was deployed at the South Pole in 2020 and upgraded in 20…

Evolution of Rayleigh-Taylor turbulence under vorticity and strain-rate control
We investigate the role of small-scale structures in turbulent Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) flows through the application of preferential flow control targeting high vorticity or high strain-rate regions (Buzzicotti et al. 2020). Through numerical simulations, we analyze the effects of flow control on RT statistics, mixing, and anisotropy behavior. Our results reveal that eliminating intense small-scale motion leads to the formation of more organized and coherent flow structures, with reduced mixing an…

"The RDBMS field is so young, we can actually see it grow through the pages of computer magazines of the 1980s. BYTE Magazine had its first issue dedicated to databases in November 1981, and then another one in October 1984. Dr. Dobb’s Journal did not feature an article about databases until 1984 and did not have many more throughout the decade; actually most of them were authored by Gene Head, and talk about dBASE."

In this edition, we will encounter yet another example of such a clash, this time concerning rela…

In April 2020, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange temporarily switched the pricing formula for West Texas Intermediate oil market options from the Black model to the Bachelier model. In this context, we introduce an Additive Bachelier model that provides a simple closed-form solution and a good description of the Implied volatility surface. This new Additive model exhibits several notable mathematical and financial properties. It ensures the no-arbitrage condition, a critical requirement in highly…

Impact of the WHO's 90-70-90 Strategy on HPV-Related Cervical Cancer Control: A Mathematical Model Evaluation in China
In August 2020, the World Health Assembly approved the Global Strategy to eliminate cervical cancer, marking the first time that numerous countries committed to eliminating a form of cancer. China introduced the HPV vaccine in 2016 and has made significant advancements in both prevention and treatment strategies. However, due to the relatively late introduction of the vaccine, the burden of cervical cancer in China continues to rise. In light of this, we develop a compartmental model to assess …

We report on a detailed study of a luminous, heavily obscured ($N_{\rm H} \sim 2 \times 10^{23}$ cm$^{-2}$), radio-loud quasar SRGAJ230631.0+155633, discovered in the 4--12 keV energy band by the Mikhail Pavlinsky ART-XC telescope aboard the SRG observatory during the first two years of its all-sky X-ray survey in 2020--2021.

A note on multi-transitivity in non-autonomous discrete systems
This paper is concerned with some stronger forms of transitivity in non-autonomous discrete systems$(f_{ 1,\infty})$ generated by a uniformly convergent sequence of continuous self maps. Firstly, we present two counterexamples to show that Theorem 3.1 obtained by Salman and Das in [Multi-transitivity in nonautonomous discrete systems Topol. Appl. 278(2020)107237] is not true. Then, we introduce and study mildly mixing in non-autonomous discrete systems, which is stronger than mixing. We obtain …

Least Squares Estimation For Hierarchical Data
The U.S. Census Bureau's 2020 Disclosure Avoidance System (DAS) bases its output on noisy measurements, which are population tabulations added to realizations of mean-zero random variables.

The Northern Cross Fast Radio Burst project: V. Search for transient radio emission from Galactic magnetars
Context. The radio emission from magnetars is poorly understood and poorly characterized observationally, in particular for what concerns single pulses and sporadic events. The interest in it was boosted by the detection in 2020 of an extremely bright ms radio signal from the Galactic magnetar designated Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) SGR J1935+2154, which occurred almost simultaneously with a typical magnetar short burst of X-rays. As of now, this event remains the Galactic radio pulse that is the …
