Nuclear Physics Confronts Relativistic Collisions Of Isobars
High-energy collisions involving the $A=96$ isobars $^{96}$Zr and $^{96}$Ru have been performed in 2018 at Brookhaven National Laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) as a means to search for the chiral magnetic effect in QCD. This would manifest itself as specific deviations from unity in the ratio of observables taken between $^{96}$Zr+$^{96}$Zr and $^{96}$Ru+$^{96}$Ru collisions. Measurements of such ratios (released at the end of 2021) indeed reveal deviations from unity, but th…

A Data-Driven Model Predictive Controller to manage epidemics: The case of SARS-CoV-2 in Mauritius
This work investigates the benefits of implementing a systematic approach to social isolation policies during epidemics. We develop a mixed integer data-driven model predictive control (MPC) scheme based on an SIHRD model which is identified from available data. The case of the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (also known as COVID-19) in Mauritius is used as a reference point with data obtained during the period December 2021 to May 2022. The isolation scheme is designed with the control decision…

Down But Not Out: The Case of Long-Period Comet C/2021 O3 (Panstarrs)
We combine ground- and space-based observations of long-period comet C/2021 O3 (Panstarrs) (perihelion distance 0.287 au) in order to investigate its reported near-perihelion destruction. Pre-perihelion photometric observations show a remarkably small heliocentric dependence of the scattered light, $\propto r_H^{-s}$ with $s = 2.59\pm0.21$, distinct from values reported in other long-period comets, for which $s$ = 4 is the canonical standard. The index is smaller than expected of coma productio…

Hamilton Cycles In Vertex-Transitive Graphs of Order 10p
After a long term efforts, the Hamiltonian problem of connected vertex-transitive graphs of order $pq$ (where $p$ and $q$ are primes) was finally finshed in 2021, see [10]. Fifteen years ago, mathematicians began to challenge this problem for graphs of order $2pq$. Among of them, it was proved in 2012 (see [21]) that every connected vertex-transitive graph of order $10p$ (where $p\neq7$ is a prime) contains a Hamilton path, with the exception of a family of graphs which was recently confirmed i…

Convergence of adaptive boundary element methods driven by functional a posteriori error estimates
The recent work [Kurz et al., Numer. Math., 147 (2021)] proposed functional a posteriori error estimates for boundary element methods (BEMs) together with a related adaptive mesh-refinement strategy. Unlike most a posteriori BEM error estimators, the proposed functional error estimators cover Galerkin as well as collocation BEM and, more importantly, do not control the error in the integral density on the boundary, but the error of the potential approximation in the domain, which is of greater …

Inner disc and circumplanetary material in the PDS 70 system
The two giant protoplanets directly imaged in the dust-depleted cavity of PDS 70 offer a unique opportunity to study ongoing planet formation. Both planets have been detected in infrared thermal emission and in H$α$, indicating active accretion. We calibrate and analyse archival ALMA Band 6 and 7 observations of PDS 70 from 2019, 2021, and 2023 to search for circumplanetary material and assess its motion. Using 2D visibility modelling of the high-resolution (~0.11"x0.08" in Band 6; ~0.05"x0.05…
