The impact of Alfvenic shear flow on magnetic reconnection and turbulence
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental and omnipresent energy conversion process in plasma physics. Novel observations of fields and particles from Parker Solar Probe (PSP) have shown the absence of reconnection in a large number of current sheets in the near-Sun solar wind. Using near-Sun observations from PSP Encounters 4 to 11 (Jan 2020 to March 2022), we investigate whether reconnection onset might be suppressed by velocity shear. We compare estimates of the tearing mode growth rate in the …

Krugman outlines a constellation of possible causes around a core theme: extreme uncertainty.
“What does a business do in the face of this kind of uncertainty? It tries to avoid making commitments that it may soon regret.”
Krugman tries to tie it all to Trump’s recent actions, which is dubious: the post-college job market has been crap since 2022 or 2023; Krugman’s own graph suggests it started worsening circa 2018. The larger theme of uncertainty, however, fits that timeframe.

KMT-2022-BLG-0086: Another binary-lens binary-source microlensing event
We present the analysis of a microlensing event KMT-2022-BLG-0086 of which the overall light curve is not described by a binary-lens single-source (2L1S) model, which suggests the existence of an extra lens or an extra source. We found that the event is best explained by the binary-lens binary-source (2L2S) model, but the 2L2S model is only favored over the triple-lens single-source (3L1S) model by $Δχ^{2} \simeq 9$. Although the event has noticeable anomalies around the peak of the light cur…

Improving Student-AI Interaction Through Pedagogical Prompting: An Example in Computer Science Education
With the proliferation of large language model (LLM) applications since 2022, their use in education has sparked both excitement and concern. Recent studies consistently highlight students' (mis)use of LLMs can hinder learning outcomes. This work aims to teach students how to effectively prompt LLMs to improve their learning. We first proposed pedagogical prompting, a theoretically-grounded new concept to elicit learning-oriented responses from LLMs. To move from concept design to a proof-of-co…

Anomalous Bulk Current in Quantum Hall Systems with an Expanding Edge
Understanding topological phases of matter is essential for advancing both the fundamental theory and practical applications of condensed matter physics. Recently, a theoretical framework for a quantum Hall system with an expanding edge state was proposed [Phys. Rev. D {\bf 105}, 105009 (2022)], revealing the existence of an energy flux analogous to Hawking radiation on the edge. Motivated by this work, we extend the analysis to a model of a $(2+1)$-dimensional spacetime that includes both the …

New Bounds for the Ideal Proof System in Positive Characteristic
In this work, we prove upper and lower bounds over fields of positive characteristics for several fragments of the Ideal Proof System (IPS), an algebraic proof system introduced by Grochow and Pitassi (J. ACM 2018). Our results extend the works of Forbes, Shpilka, Tzameret, and Wigderson (Theory of Computing 2021) and also of Govindasamy, Hakoniemi, and Tzameret (FOCS 2022). These works primarily focused on proof systems over fields of characteristic $0$, and we are able to extend these results…

A deep X-ray/UV look into the reflaring stage of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658
We present a detailed X-ray/UV high-time resolution monitoring of the final reflaring phase of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX~J1808.4$-$3658. During its 2022 outburst, we obtained simultaneous XMM-Newton and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations. We detected coherent X-ray pulsations down to a 0.5-10~keV luminosity of $L_{X(low)\,0.5-10} \simeq 6.21^{+0.20}_{-0.15} \times 10^{34} \, d^2_{3.5}\,\mathrm{erg \, s^{-1}}$, among the lowest ever observed in this source.

And just to emphasize the point, we don’t use our car lightly.
We have gone on numerous road trips including from the Pacific to the Atlantic cross Canada in 2022. We have a hitch on the Kona that I use to pull a trailer for everthing from camping, to road trips, to hauling a yard of soil or rock.
We have certainly had some maintenance costs for the Kona. Some regular (brakes, after 150,000), checkups, 12V battery twice, etc. and some self inflicted (alignment and back shocks due to trailering). Visits to the dealer are your standard $500 to $2000 affair once a year. We have a second set of rims for the winter tires. We have bought 2 new sets of tires, one winter, one all season. The all seasons will be replaced after this summer.
The main battery was replaced under recall in February 2022 (before our road trip) at about 50,000km so we have a slightly newer battery than the car but not significantly, and we have not noticed any degradation in charge life.
On this day in 2022 we were visiting Wanuskewin, Saskatchewan just outside Saskatoon on our way back. We stopped to charge in Saskatoon, North Battleford, Lloydminster and Vegreville on the way to the West Edmonton Mall that day :)

On June 30th, 1987, a Canadian one-dollar coin was introduced, produced by the Royal Canadian Mint at its facility in Winnipeg. The beloved #Loonie was born. But did you know the iconic Loon image wasn't meant to be the coin in production and only came to be because the original master dies were lost by a courier. We came close to embedding "Voyageurs" at centre ice during the Olympics.

The orbital period and inclination of the neutron star X-ray transient MAXI J1807+132
The neutron star X-ray transient MAXI J1807+132 has undergone outbursts in 2017, 2019, and 2023. We conducted an $R$-band time series photometry campaign using the Isaac Newton Telescope during the 2022 quiescent state. We detected a periodic variation in the light curve, consistent with ellipsoidal modulation, which allowed us to determine an orbital period of $P_{\rm orb} = 4.258 \pm 0.008$ hr. By modelling the light curve, we obtained a binary inclination of $ i = 72\pm5 \, °$ and a mass ra…
