Of course, an #iOS

Quaking in Soft Granular Particles with Speed-dependent Friction: Effect of Inertia
Our previous numerical simulation [C.-E. Tsai et al., Physical Review Research 6, 023065 (2024)] has shown that, for soft granular particles under quasistatic shearing, incorporating a speed-dependent friction is a necessary condition for reproducing the rate-dependent stick-slip fluctuations that have been found in laboratory experiments [J.-C. Tsai et al., Physical Review Letters 126, 128001 (2021)]. As a continuation, here we employ the simulation at a wide range of driving speeds to examine…

Bi-Lipschitz embedding properties of lamplighter graphs on weighted and unweighted trees
In 2021 Baudier, Motakis, Schlumprecht, and Zsák proved that if a sequence of graphs $(G_k)_{k\in{\mathbb{N}}}$ contains the sequence of complete graphs with uniformly bounded distortion, then the sequence of lamplighter graphs on $G_k$'s contains Hamming cubes with uniformly bounded distortion and asked whether the converse holds. They suggested that a sequence of trees with edges replaced by paths of ``moderately growing'' lengths may be a counterexample. We prove that indeed this is the…

Perturbative QCD below charm threshold: theory and tensions with $e^ e^-$ data

Perturbative QCD below charm threshold: theory and tensions with $e^+e^-$ data
In this paper we carefully assess the theory prediction for $R(s)$ below charm threshold, $R_{uds}$, and address tensions with the existing data, notably with the 2021 BES-III results. We analyze the uncertainty of the perturbative QCD description in the light of renormalons making use of the large-$β_0$ limit and the renormalon-free gluon-condensate scheme. We provide a reliable estimate of the duality violation contributions; we show they are sizable up to $2.5$~GeV and improve the agreement…

VBS hat für einen Typenentscheid F-35 vorgespurt und den Bundesrat entmachtet: Es gab ein Gutachten, das das VBS im Juni 2021 ausgerechnet vor der Bundesratsdebatte über den Typenentscheid beim Bundesamt für Justiz in Auftrag gegeben hatte. Das Gutachten hielt fest, dass der Bundesrat verpflichtet sei, sich für den Sieger der Evaluation zu entscheiden – sofern es bei Preis und Fähigkeiten keine weitgehende Gleichwertigkeit gebe. Genauso hat Amherd dann argumentiert.
