What does making money have to do with crime?: A dive into the National Crime Victimization survey
In this short article, I leverage the National Crime Victimization Survey from 1992 to 2022 to examine how income, education, employment, and key demographic factors shape the type of crime victims experience (violent vs property). Using balanced classification splits and logistic regression models evaluated by F1-score, there is an isolation of the socioeconomic drivers of victimization "Group A" models and then an introduction of demographic factors such as age, gender, race, and marital stat…

Charged-hadron identification at Belle II
The Belle II experiment's ability to identify particles critically affects the sensitivity of its measurements. We describe Belle II's algorithms for identifying charged particles and evaluate their performance in separating pions, kaons, and protons using 426 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at the energy-asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collider SuperKEKB in 2019--2022 at center-of-mass energies at and near the mass of the $Υ(4S)$.

A Relativistic Jet in the Radio Quiet AGN Mrk 110
We report the discovery of a relativistic jet in Mrk~110, a narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy historically classified as a radio-quiet active galactic nucleus (AGN). Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations reveal intermittent jet activity during 2015--2016 and 2022--2024, with proper motion measurements yielding superluminal velocities of $\sim3.6\pm0.6\,c$ and $\sim2.1\pm0.2\,c$, respectively. The recent jet component decelerates to $\sim 1.5\pm0.2\,c$ at a projected distance of 1.1 p…

$\mathcal{B}(B\rightarrowτν)$ measurement with the hadronic FEI at Belle~II
We presented at Moriond EW 2025 a measurement of the branching fraction of $B\toτν$ decays using $(387\pm 6) \times 10^6$ $Υ(4S)$ collected between 2019 and 2022 with the Belle~II detector at the SuperKEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. We reconstruct the accompanying $B^-$ meson using the hadronic tagging method, while $B\toτν$ candidates are identified in the recoil. We find evidence for $B\toτν$ decays at 3.0 standard deviations, including systematic uncertainties. The measured branching fraction…

Ukraine und Russland setzen Gefangenenaustausch fort

Der Großteil sei seit 2022 in russischer Gefangenschaft gewesen. Eine Angabe zur Anzahl der Rückkehrer machte er nicht. Pa…

Some Mathematical Problems Behind Lattice-Based Cryptography
In 1994, P. Shor discovered quantum algorithms which can break both the RSA cryptosystem and the ElGamal cryptosystem. In 2007, D-Wave demonstrated the first quantum computer. These events and further developments have brought a crisis to secret communication. In 2016, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) launched a global project to solicit and select a handful of encryption algorithms with the ability to resist quantum computer attacks. In 2022, it announced four candidat…

MOA-2022-BLG-091Lb and KMT-2024-BLG-1209Lb: Microlensing planets detected through weak caustic-crossing signals
The light curves of the microlensing events MOA-2022-BLG-091 and KMT-2024-BLG-1209 exhibit anomalies with very similar features. These anomalies appear near the peaks of the light curves, where the magnifications are moderately high, and are distinguished by weak caustic-crossing features with minimal distortion while the source remains inside the caustic. To achieve a deeper understanding of these anomalies, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the lensing events. We carried out binary-len…

Counting Small Induced Subgraphs: Scorpions Are Easy but Not Trivial
We consider the parameterized problem $\#$IndSub$(Φ)$ for fixed graph properties $Φ$: Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, this problem asks to count the number of induced $k$-vertex subgraphs satisfying $Φ$. Dörfler et al. [Algorithmica 2022] and Roth et al. [SICOMP 2024] conjectured that $\#$IndSub$(Φ)$ is $\#$W[1]-hard for all non-meager properties $Φ$, i.e., properties that are nontrivial for infinitely many $k$. This conjecture has been confirmed for several restricted types of prop…

Search for Magnetic Monopoles with the Complete ANTARES Dataset
This study presents a novel search for magnetic monopoles using data collected over a 14 year period (2008-2022) by the ANTARES neutrino telescope. The interaction of magnetic monopoles with matter was modeled according to Kazama, Yang, and Goldhaber cross-section. Upper limits on the flux of magnetic monopoles are obtained for velocities both above and below the Cherenkov threshold. No events consistent with the passage of magnetic monopoles were detected, enabling the setting of an upper flux…

International collaboration of Ukrainian scholars: Effects of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine International collaboration of Ukrainian scholars: Effects of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine
This study explores the effects of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on the international collaboration of Ukrainian scholars. First and foremost, Ukrainian scholars deserve respect for continuing to publish despite life-threatening conditions, mental strain, shelling and blackouts. In 2022-2023, universities gained more from international collaboration than the NASU. The percentage of internationally co-authored articles remained unchanged for the NASU, while it increased for universitie…

Gender Imbalance in Physics Education and Employment in Germany: Trends and Challenges
Gender imbalance among German physicists persists, with fewer women in advanced degrees and research leadership roles. Although female enrollment in Physics programs increased slightly until 2022, potentially influenced by COVID-19 the long-term trend remains uncertain. Despite the rise in female Ph.D. students and foreign representation, female professors in Physics and Astronomy stagnated below 14 %, indicating significant underrepresentation. Anticipated revisions to the WissZeitVG law may i…

The Role of Intangible Investment in Predicting Stock Returns: Six Decades of Evidence
Using an intangible intensity factor that is orthogonal to the Fama--French factors, we compare the role of intangible investment in predicting stock returns over the periods 1963--1992 and 1993--2022. For 1963--1992, intangible investment is weak in predicting stock returns, but for 1993--2022, the predictive power of intangible investment becomes very strong. Intangible investment has a significant impact not only on the MTB ratio (Fama--French high minus low [HML] factor) but also on operati…

The Families that Stay Together: A Network Analysis of Dynastic Power in Philippine Politics
Dynasties have long dominated Philippine politics. Despite the theoretical consensus that dynastic rule erodes democratic accountability, there is limited empirical evidence establishing dynasties' true impact on development. A key challenge has been developing robust metrics for characterizing dynasties that facilitate meaningful comparisons across geographies and election cycles. Using election data from 2004 to 2022, we leverage methods from graph theory to develop four indicators to investi…

Validation of Hermes-3 turbulence simulations against the TCV-X21 diverted L-mode reference case
Electrostatic flux-driven turbulence simulations with the Hermes-3 code are performed in TCV L-mode conditions in forward and reversed toroidal field configurations, and compared to the TCV-X21 reference dataset [D.S. Oliveira and T. Body et al. 2022] qualitatively and with a quantitative methodology. Using only the magnetic equilibrium, total power across the separatrix (120kW) and total particle flux to the targets (3e21/s) as inputs, the simulations produce time-averaged plasma profiles in g…

High-Speed Boulders and the Debris Field in DART Ejecta
On 26 September 2022 the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft collided with Dimorphos, the moon of the near-Earth asteroid 65803 Didymos, in a full-scale demonstration of a kinetic impactor concept. The companion LICIACube spacecraft documented the aftermath, capturing images of the expansion and evolution of the ejecta from 29 to 243 s after the impact. We present results from our analyses of these observations, including an improved reduction of the data and new absolute calibra…
