A Comparison of Relativistic Coupled Cluster and Equation of Motion Coupled Cluster Quadratic Response Theory
We present the implementation of relativistic coupled cluster quadratic response theory (QR-CC), following our development of relativistic equation of motion coupled cluster quadratic response theory (QR-EOMCC) [X. Yuan et al., J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2023, 19, 9248]. These codes, which can be used in combination with relativistic (2- and 4-component based) as well as non-relativistic Hamiltonians, are capable of treating both static and dynamic perturbations for electric and magnetic operators…

On quantum ergodicity for higher dimensional cat maps modulo prime powers
A discrete model of quantum ergodicity of linear maps generated by symplectic matrices $A \in \mathrm{Sp}(2d,\mathbb{Z})$ modulo an integer $N\ge 1$, has been studied for $d=1$ and almost all $N$ by P. Kurlberg and Z. Rudnick (2001). Their result has been strengthened by J. Bourgain (2005) and subsequently by A. Ostafe, I. E. Shparlinski, and J. F. Voloch (2023). For arbitrary $d$ this has been studied by P. Kurlberg, A. Ostafe, Z. Rudnick and I. E. Shparlinski (2024). The corresponding equidis…

Constraining the Origin of FRB 20121102A's Persistent Radio Source with Long-Term Radio Observations
The persistent radio source (PRS) associated with FRB 20121102A, the first precisely localized repeating fast radio burst (FRB), provides key constraints on both its local environment and the nature of the underlying FRB engine. We present a seven-year (2016-2023) temporal analysis of the PRS, combining new uGMRT observations with archival data across L-band frequencies. We find no statistically significant long-term trend in its L-band flux density. The observed variability is consistent with …

Cosmic Axions Revealed via Amplified Modulation of Ellipticity of Laser (CARAMEL)
We propose a new axion dark matter detection strategy that employs optical readout of laser beam ellipticity modulations caused by axion-induced electric fields in a microwave cavity, using electro-optic (EO) crystals, enhanced by externally injected radio-frequency (RF) power. Building upon the variance-based probing method, PRD 107, 103005, (2023), we extend this concept to the optical domain: a weak probe laser interacts with an EO crystal placed inside a resonant microwave cavity at cryogen…

We firstly reprove the Theorem A of the paper (M. Wu and F. Xu. Skew category algebras and modules on ringed finite sites. J.

Ergodicity of the hard-core PCA with a random walk method
The hard-core probabilistic cellular automaton has attracted a renewed interest in the last few years, thanks to its connection with the study of a combinatorial game on percolation configurations. We provide an alternative proof for the ergodicity of this PCA for a neighbourhood of size $2$ and $3$, using the notion of decorrelated islands introduced by Casse in 2023, together with some new ideas. This shortens the previous proofs and provides a more intuitive and unified approach.

Scale-by-scale energy transfers in bubbly flows
Variable density buoyancy-driven bubbly flows allow for multiple definitions of scale-dependent (or filtered) energy. A priori, it is not obvious which of these provide the most physically apt scale-by-scale budget. In the present study, we compare two such definitions, based on (a) filtered momentum and filtered velocity (Pandey et al., 2020), and (b) Favre filtered energy (Aluie 2013, Pandey et al., 2023). We also derive a Kármán-Howarth-Monin (KHM) relation using the momentum-velocity corr…

We propose a formalisation of recursive semantic anchoring, attaching to every language entity $χ$ a family of fixed-point operators $ϕ_{n,m}$ that model bounded semantic drift via the relation $ϕ_{n,m}(χ) = χ\oplus Δ(χ)$, where $Δ(χ)$ is a drift vector in a latent semantic manifold.

Therefore, the development of advanced technologies harnessing chiral phenomena would critically benefit from measuring and controlling chiral electron dynamics on their natural attosecond time scales.

Krutrim finds few takers for its LLMs and cloud products
Ola founder Aggarwal first announced Krutrim in December 2023, launching an LLM that could support 10 Indian languages, starting with Krutrim chatbot in February 2024, and cloud offering shortly after. Two founders told ET recently that repeated sign-in attempts were blocked by a persistent “logged out of session” error, making sign-up via mobile or Gmail difficult.

Measurement of the Positive Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment to 127 ppb
A new measurement of the magnetic anomaly $a_μ$ of the positive muon is presented based on data taken from 2020 to 2023 by the Muon $g-2$ Experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL). This dataset contains over 2.5 times the total statistics of our previous results. From the ratio of the precession frequencies for muons and protons in our storage ring magnetic field, together with precisely known ratios of fundamental constants, we determine $a_μ = 116\,592\,0710(162) \times 10^…

A tightness criterion for fragmentations
This note presents a simple criterion for the tightness of stochastic fragmentation processes. Our work is motivated by an application to a fragmentation process derived from deleting edges in a conditioned Galton-Watson tree studied by Berzunza-Ojeda and Holmgren (2023). In that paper, while finite-dimensional convergence was established, the claimed functional convergence relied on Lemma 22 of Broutin and Marckert (2016), which is unfortunately incorrect. We show how our results can correct t…

Search for millicharged particles in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13.6$ TeV
We report on a search for elementary particles with charges much smaller than the electron charge using a data sample of proton-proton collisions provided by the CERN Large Hadron Collider in 2023--24, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 124.7~fb$^{-1}$ at a center-of-mass energy of 13.6~TeV. The analysis presented uses the completed Run 3 milliQan bar detector to set the most stringent constraints to date for particles with charges $\leq0.24~\rm{e}$ and masses $\geq0.45~\rm{GeV}$.
