Am 25. Oktober um 12 Uhr werden die beiden 161 Meter hohen #Kühltürme des ehemaligen AKW #Gundremmingen gesprengt.
Nach der Abschaltung 2021 markiert dies einen weiteren Schritt im Rückbau.
Rund 11.000 Tonnen Schutt werden erwartet. Die Behörden bereiten sich auf zahlre…

AKW Gundremmingen: Termin für die Sprengung der Kühltürme steht
Auf Nachfrage der Redaktion bestätigt der Betreiber RWE jetzt offiziell: Am Samstag, 25. Oktober, fallen die Kühltürme. Auf Gundremmingen wird einiges zukommen.

The super-successful #Juno #Jupiter orbiter may already be switched off, but #NASA won't say: https://www.space.com/space-exploration/missions/nasas-juno-probe-orbiting-jupiter-may-have-come-to-an-end-but-no-one-can-confirm - the agency has extended Juno's mission multiple times, most recently in 2021, guaranteeing operations through Sept. 30, 2025; that date has now passed, and with the U.S. government shut down, there is no word yet on whether Juno will come out alive on the other side.

Mercor Fields $10 Billion-Valuation Offers in ‘Pre-emptive’ Onslaught
The frothiness of the artificial intelligence boom is starting to look like 1999…or 2021. Startups are again receiving unsolicited investment interest months or even weeks after announcing a fundraising, sometimes at prices that would more than double their valuation. The latest is Mercor, a ...

Gravitational Recoil and Suppression of Super Massive Black Hole Seeds in the Early Universe
We investigate the impact of gravitational-wave (GW) recoil on the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early Universe. Forming ~10^9 Msun SMBHs by z ~ 6 is challenging and may require hierarchical mergers of smaller seed black holes. We extend a semi-analytic seed model (Sassano et al. 2021) by explicitly incorporating GW recoil physics. Our model includes: (1) recoil velocity formulae calibrated to numerical relativity for spinning, unequal-mass BH binaries (Campanelli et al. 200…

A note on Wang's conjecture for harmonic functions with nonlinear boundary condition
We obtain some Liouville type theorems for positive harmonic functions on compact Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and strictly convex boundary and partially verifies Wang's conjecture (J. Geom. Anal. 31 (2021)). For the specific manifold $\mathbb{B}^n$, we present a new proof of this conjecture, which has been resolved by Gu-Li (Math. Ann. 391 (2025)). Our proof is based on a general principle of applying the P-function method to such uniqueness results. As a further app…
