Cleaner air may be accelerating warming by making clouds less reflective
Earth is reflecting less sunlight, and absorbing more heat, than it did several decades ago. Global warming is advancing faster than climate models predicted, with observed temperatures exceeding projections in 2023 and 2024. These trends have scientists scrambling to understand why the atmosphere is letting more light in.

Elon Musk's $1 trillion Tesla pay plan wins shareholder approval -
That's paying Musk 9 times the total turnover of Tesla in 2024 (which was 1% higher than that in 2023). Sounds a bit over the top. It's also more than $100 for every person on earth. The combined result of the greediness of Musk and the craziness of Tesla's shareholders.

Wavelet-SARIMA-Transformer: A Hybrid Model for Rainfall Forecasting
This study develops and evaluates a novel hybridWavelet SARIMA Transformer, WST framework to forecast using monthly rainfall across five meteorological subdivisions of Northeast India over the 1971 to 2023 period. The approach employs the Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform, MODWT with four wavelet families such as, Haar, Daubechies, Symlet, Coiflet etc. to achieve shift invariant, multiresolution decomposition of the rainfall series. Linear and seasonal components are modeled using Seas…

A proof of Witten's asymptotic expansion conjecture for WRT invariants of Seifert fibered homology spheres
Let $X$ be a general Seifert fibered integral homology $3$-sphere with $r\ge3$ exceptional fibers. For every root of unity $ζ\not=1$, we show that the SU(2) WRT invariant of $X$ evaluated at $ζ$ is (up to an elementary factor) the non-tangential limit at $ζ$ of the GPPV invariant of $X$, thereby generalizing a result from [Andersen-Mistegard 2022]. Based on this result, we apply the quantum modularity results developed in [Han-Li-Sauzin-Sun 2023] to the GPPV invariant of $X$ to prove Witten'…

Non-iid hypothesis testing: from classical to quantum
We study hypothesis testing (aka state certification) in the non-identically distributed setting. A recent work (Garg et al. 2023) considered the classical case, in which one is given (independent) samples from $T$ unknown probability distributions $p_1, \dots, p_T$ on $[d] = \{1, 2, \dots, d\}$, and one wishes to accept/reject the hypothesis that their average $p_{\mathrm{avg}}$ equals a known hypothesis distribution $q$. Garg et al. showed that if one has just $c = 2$ samples from each $p_i$,…

Quantum criticality in cuprate superconductors revealed by optical conductivity measurement
The ubiquitous temperature ($T$)-linear behaviour of the transport scattering rate in the normal state of strongly correlated electron systems is called strange metallicity \cite{zaanen:2004,phillips:2022,hartnoll:2022,chowdhury:2022,yuan:2022}. Although strange metallicity is crucial to understanding superconductivity in correlated electron systems, its origin remains elusive to date \cite{hussey:2023}. Here, we present the doping-, temperature-, and frequency ($ω$)-dependent transport proper…

Beamstrahlung monitoring at SuperKEKB upgrade 2023
Beam monitoring is crucial for particle accelerators to achieve high luminosity. We describe an upgrade of the LABM, a beam monitoring device utilizing observation of the beamstrahlung, radiation emitted by a beam of charged particles when it accelerates in the electromagnetic field of another beam of charged particles.

All Models Are Wrong, But Can They Be Useful? Lessons from COVID-19 Agent-Based Models: A Systematic Review
The COVID-19 pandemic prompted a surge in computational models to simulate disease dynamics and guide interventions. Agent-based models (ABMs) are well-suited to capture population and environmental heterogeneity, but their rapid deployment raised questions about utility for health policy. We systematically reviewed 536 COVID-19 ABM studies published from January 2020 to December 2023, retrieved from Web of Science, PubMed, and Wiley on January 30, 2024. Studies were included if they used ABMs …
