Measurements of All-Particle Energy Spectrum and Mean Logarithmic Mass of Cosmic Rays from 0.3 to 30 PeV with LHAASO-KM2A
We present the measurements of all-particle energy spectrum and mean logarithmic mass of cosmic rays in the energy range of 0.3-30 PeV using data collected from LHAASO-KM2A between September 2021 and December 2022, which is based on a nearly composition-independent energy reconstruction method, achieving unprecedented accuracy. Our analysis reveals the position of the knee at $3.67 \pm 0.05 \pm 0.15$ PeV. Below the knee, the spectral index is found to be -$2.7413 \pm 0.0004 \pm 0.0050$, while a…

The Relativistic Spin Precession in the Compact Double Neutron Star System PSR~J1946+2052
We observe systematic profile changes in the visible pulsar of the compact double neutron star system PSR~J1946+2052 using observations with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The interpulse of PSR~J1946+2052 changed from single-peak to double-peak shape from 2018 to 2021. We attribute this evolution as the result of the relativistic spin precession of the pulsar. With the high sensitivity of FAST, we also measure significant polarization for the first time, allow…

Supernova (SN) 1987A offers a unique opportunity to study how a spatially resolved SN evolves into a young supernova remnant (SNR). We present and analyze Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging observations of SN 1987A obtained in 2022 and compare them with HST observations from 2009 to 2021. These observations allow us to follow the evolution of the equatorial ring (ER), the rapidly expanding ejecta, and emission from the center over a wide range in wavelength from 2000 to 11 000 AA.

A spectral extremal problem on non-bipartite triangle-free graphs
A theorem of Nosal and Nikiforov states that if $G$ is a triangle-free graph with $m$ edges, then $λ(G)\le \sqrt{m}$, where the equality holds if and only if $G$ is a complete bipartite graph. A well-known spectral conjecture of Bollobás and Nikiforov [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 97 (2007)] asserts that if $G$ is a $K_{r+1}$-free graph with $m$ edges, then $λ_1^2(G) + λ_2^2(G) \le (1-\frac{1}{r})2m$. Recently, Lin, Ning and Wu [Combin. Probab.

Rate-optimal higher-order adaptive conforming FEM for biharmonic eigenvalue problems on polygonal domains
The a posteriori error analysis of the classical Argyris finite element methods dates back to 1996, while the optimal convergence rates of associated adaptive finite element schemes are established only very recently in 2021. It took a long time to realise the necessity of an extension of the classical finite element spaces to make them hierarchical. This paper establishes the novel adaptive schemes for the biharmonic eigenvalue problems and provides a mathematical proof of optimal convergence …

49ers sign veteran OT as depth for offensive line
The 49ers are adding some depth to their offensive line. The team announced that they’ve signed offensive tackle Brandon Parker. The former third-round pick had spent his entire career with the Raiders. He had an inconsistent role through his six years with the organization, alternating between starter and backup.  Parker started a career-high 13 games for the Raiders in 2021, but his follow-up campaign was erased thanks to a triceps injury. During his comeback season in 2023, Parker bounced…

On a variational problem related to the Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum and Lieb-Thirring inequalities
We explicitly solve a variational problem related to upper bounds on the optimal constants in the Cwikel--Lieb--Rozenblum (CLR) and Lieb--Thirring (LT) inequalities, which has recently been derived in [Invent. Math. 231 (2023), no.1, 111-167. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00222-022-01144-7 ] and [J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 23 (2021), no.8, 2583-2600. https://doi.org/10.4171/jems/1062 ]. We achieve this through a variational characterization of the $L^1$ norm of the Fourier transform of a function and…

Bayesian survival analysis with INLA
This tutorial shows how various Bayesian survival models can be fitted using the integrated nested Laplace approximation in a clear, legible, and comprehensible manner using the INLA and INLAjoint R-packages. Such models include accelerated failure time, proportional hazards, mixture cure, competing risks, multi-state, frailty, and joint models of longitudinal and survival data, originally presented in the article "Bayesian survival analysis with BUGS" (Alvares et al., 2021). In addition, we il…

Dolphins to sign DL Neville Gallimore
Neville Gallimore is heading to Miami. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the defensive lineman is expected to sign with the Dolphins. Gallimore spent his entire four-year career in Dallas after being selected in the third round of the 2020 draft. Once rated the top Canadian draft prospect, Gallimore got an extended look on defense as a rookie, starting nine of his 14 appearances. After an elbow injury limited him to only five contests in 2021, the defensive lineman has mostly seen a ba…

All-Sky Search for Transient Astrophysical Neutrino Emission with 10 Years of IceCube Cascade Events
We present the results of a time-dependent search for neutrino flares in data collected by IceCube between May 2011 and 2021. This data set contains cascade-like events originating from charged-current electron neutrino and tau neutrino interactions and all-flavor neutral-current interactions. IceCube's previous all-sky searches for neutrino flares used data sets consisting of track-like events originating from charged-current muon neutrino interactions. The cascade data sets are statistically …

Day 1 of NFL free agency spells trouble for yet unknown Cowboys starter
Day one of NFL free agency was in full swing... if you're a fan of one of the 31 other NFL teams not in Dallas, Texas. If you're a Cowboys fan, you will have to wait a couple of weeks for anything "big" to happen.  For a fan, it is infuriating to see your favorite team take this approach year after year. We have seen teams get to the Super Bowl after spending big, like the Rams in 2021. The Rams were most definitely "All-In" and by many people's standards, they traded away their future for a s…

Likely detection of magnetic field related LFQPO in the soft X-ray re-brightening of GRS~1915+105
Utilizing NICER observations, we present an analysis of the soft X-ray re-brightening event of GRS 1915+105 observed in 2021. During this event, we observed the emergence of a stable, long-lasting low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillation (LFQPO) with frequencies ranging from 0.17 to 0.21 Hz. Through a careful spectral analysis, we demonstrate that a low-temperature Compton-thick gas model well characterizes the emitted radiation. By examining the spectrum and identifying numerous absorption lin…

Dallas Cowboys cornerback C.J. Goodwin inks new contract ahead of free agency
Dallas Cowboys cornerback and special teams ace C.J. Goodwin inked a new contract this week ahead of free agency. It will be a one-year deal, according to Cowboys reporter Michael Gehlken. He is coming off of a one-year deal worth $1.317 million. During the 2023 season, Goodwin played in five games, tallying four tackles, before tearing his pectoral muscle in the Oct. 8 game against the San Francisco 49ers. Goodwin played the 2021 and 2022 seasons on a two-year, $3.5 million deal. He was the te…

The invisible black widow PSR J1720-0534: implications for the electron density towards the North Polar Spur
Radio emission from pulsars can be used to map out their distances through dispersion measure (DM), which quantifies the amount of radio pulse dispersion. However, this method relies on accurately modelling the free electron density in the line of sight. Here, we present a detailed study of the multiwavelength emission from PSR J1720$-$0534, a black widow compact binary millisecond pulsar discovered in 2021, which the latest electron density model of the Galaxy (Yao et al. 2017) places at only …

Three big names the Philadelphia Eagles should avoid in free agency
With more than $40M available under the NFL's new salary cap, the Eagles can afford to add some big-name talent to their 2024 roster. Just not these guys. RB Austin Ekeler Ekeler’s Chargers career got off to a slow start after he went undrafted out of Western Colorado in 2017. Ekeler tallied just 1,901 yards and nine touchdowns in his first four seasons. But things changed in 2021 when he ran for 911 yards and 12 touchdowns, followed by 915 yards and 13 scores in 2022. Unfortunately, Ekeler�…

Which draft picks do the 49ers own in 2024?
The San Francisco 49ers were awarded five compensatory selections in the 2024 NFL Draft to help offset the disparity between free-agency losses and gains from last year. This brings the team's total number of draft picks to 11. If you counted 12 there, more on that in a second. San Francisco's first selection comes at No. 31 overall in the first round. The 49ers have been without a first-round pick since the 2021 draft due to the valuable selections being part of the trade package to move up an…
