On the Earth's tidal perturbations. II. LARES 2 satellite
Laser-ranging satellites have proved their efficiency in high precision testing of General Relativity and constraining modified gravity theories proposed to explain the dark sector and the cosmological tensions. The LARES 2 satellite launched in 2022, is currently providing improved information regarding the frame-dragging effect predicted by General Relativity, as well as the geodesy, thus essentially complementing the data of already existing laser-ranging satellites.

Critical points of random polynomials and finite free cumulants
A result of Hoskins and Steinerberger [Int. Math. Res. Not., (13):9784-9809, 2022] states that repeatedly differentiating a random polynomials with independent and identically distributed mean zero and variance one roots will result, after an appropriate rescaling, in a Hermite polynomial. We use the theory of finite free probability to extend this result in two natural directions: (1) We prove central limit theorems for the fluctuations around these deterministic limits for the polynomials and…

Refugees' path to legal stability is long and systematically unequal
Legal systems shape not only the recognition of migrants and refugees but also the pace and stability of their integration. Refugees often shift between multiple legal classifications, a process we refer to as the "legal journey". This journey is frequently prolonged and uncertain. Using a network-based approach, we analyze legal transitions for over 350,000 migrants in Austria (2022 to 2024). Refugees face highly unequal pathways to stability, ranging from two months for Ukrainians to nine mon…

Very interesting talks at the #SolarEclipse Conference - https://www.vvs.be/subsite/sec-2025/programme - in Belgium I am attending online: here is the key result by Luca Quaglia who had reported his work in great detail in the papers https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4365/ac1279 (2021), https://www.iota-es.de/JOA/JOA2022_2.pdf#page=3 (2022) and https://www.iota-es.de/JOA/JOA2024_4.pdf#page=3 (2024) already. There seems to be NO way by now to escape the conclusion the the solar - i.e. photospheric - diameter used by many in the past (and various eclipse map calculations sites still today) is too small. So everyone should use Quaglia's free precision tools at https://www.besselianelements.com instead to get the real length of totality at one's observing spot.

Impact of nonlinearities on relativistic dynamical tides in compact binary inspirals
The tidal deformation of a neutron star in a binary inspiral driven by the emission of gravitational waves affects the orbital dynamics and produces a measurable modulation of the waves. Late in the inspiral, a regime of dynamical tides takes over from a prior regime of static tides. A recent analysis by Yu et al. [M.N.R.A.S. 519, 4325 (2022)] reveals that nonlinear aspects of the tidal interaction are important during the regime of dynamical tides. Their theoretical framework is grounded in Ne…

On the Erdős-Ko-Rado problem of flags with type $\{1, n-3 \}$ of finite sets
A flag of a finite set $S$ is a set $f$ of non-empty, proper subsets of $S$, such that $X\subseteq Y$ or $Y\subseteq X$ for all $X,Y\in f$. Two flags $f_1$ and $f_2$ of $S$ are opposite if $X_1\cap X_2=\emptyset$, or $X_1\cup X_2=S$ for all $X_1\in f_1$ and $X_2\in f_2$. The set $\{|X| \mid X\in f \}$ is the type of a flag $f$. A set of pairwise non-opposite flags is an Erdős-Ko-Rado set. In 2022 Metsch posed the problem of determining the maximum size of all Erdős-Ko-Rado sets of f…

Asteroseismology of the G8 subgiant beta Aquilae with SONG-Tenerife, SONG-Australia and TESS
We present radial velocities of the G8 subgiant star beta Aql obtained in 2022 and 2023 using SONG-Tenerife and SONG-Australia. We also analysed a sector of TESS photometry that overlapped with the 2022 SONG data. We processed the time series to assign weights and to remove bad data points. The power spectrum clearly shows solar-like oscillations centred at 430 muHz. The TESS data show the oscillations at lower signal-to-noise because photometric measurements are much more affected by the granu…

Local feature filtering for scalable and well-conditioned Random Feature Methods
In recent years, machine learning has emerged as a powerful tool for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), with randomized neural networks showing remarkable potential. These networks, typically shallow, differ from conventional approaches by randomizing all parameters except those in the final layer. Notably, by integrating techniques inspired by domain decomposition, they achieve improved local accuracy and computational efficiency. Following \cite{chen:2022:BTM}, we refer to these a…

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…

An Empirical Comparison of Weak-IV-Robust Procedures in Just-Identified Models
Instrumental variable (IV) regression is recognized as one of the five core methods for causal inference, as identified by Angrist and Pischke (2008). This paper compares two leading approaches to inference under weak identification for just-identified IV models: the classical Anderson-Rubin (AR) procedure and the recently popular tF method proposed by Lee et al. (2022). Using replication data from the American Economic Review (AER) and Monte Carlo simulation experiments, we evaluate the two pr…

Local well-posedness for a system of quadratic derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equations
We consider the Cauchy problem for a system of quadratic derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equations introduced by M. Colin and T. Colin (2004) as a model of laser-plasma interaction. Under the condition that the flow map fails to be twice differentiable, Hirayama, Kinoshita, and Okamoto (2022) proved the well-posedness by constructing a modified energy and applying the energy method. In the present paper, we improve the well-posedness result under the above condition by using the short-time Fo…

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…

External Evaluation of Discrimination Mitigation Efforts in Meta's Ad Delivery
The 2022 settlement between Meta and the U.S. Department of Justice to resolve allegations of discriminatory advertising resulted is a first-of-its-kind change to Meta's ad delivery system aimed to address algorithmic discrimination in its housing ad delivery. In this work, we explore direct and indirect effects of both the settlement's choice of terms and the Variance Reduction System (VRS) implemented by Meta on the actual reduction in discrimination. We first show that the settlement terms…

General-domain FC-based shock-dynamics solver I: Basic elements
This contribution, Part I in a two-part article series, presents a general-domain version of the FC-SDNN (Fourier Continuation Shock-detecting Neural Network) spectral scheme for the numerical solution of nonlinear conservation laws, which is applicable under arbitrary boundary conditions and in general domains. Like the previous simple-domain contribution (Journal of Computational Physics X 15, (2022)), the present approach relies on the use of the Fourier Continuation method for accurate spec…

On Devon Allen's Disqualification at the 2022 World Track and Field Championships
Devon Allen's disqualification at the men's 110-meter hurdle final at the 2022 World Track and Field Championships, due to a reaction time (RT) of 0.099 seconds-just 0.001 seconds below the allowable threshold-sparked widespread debate over the fairness and validity of RT rules. This study investigates two key issues: variations in timing systems and the justification for the 0.1-second disqualification threshold. We pooled RT data from men's 110-meter hurdles and 100-meter dash, as well as wom…

Global hypoellipticity on time-periodic Gelfand-Shilov spaces via non-discrete Fourier analysis
In this paper, we provide a characterization of the time-periodic Gelfand-Shilov spaces, as introduced by F. de Ávila Silva and M. Cappiello [J. Funct. Anal., 282(9):29, 2022], through the asymptotic behaviour of both the Euclidean and periodic partial Fourier transforms of their elements. As an application, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for global regularity -- within this framework -- for a broad class of constant-coefficient differential operators, as well as for first-or…
