The Story of Titanium
The earth contains a lot of titanium - it’s the ninth most abundant element in the earth’s crust.

Noor, my eldest sister Tasneem’s daughter, is three; she was born on May 11, 2021. My sister’s son, Ezz Aldin, was born on December 25, 2023 – in the early months of the war.
One morning, Tasneem walked into our space carrying them in her arms. I looked at her and asked the question that wouldn’t leave my mind: “Tasneem, do Noor and Ezz Aldin unders…

The HST-Gaia Near-Infrared Astrometric Reference Frame near the Milky Way Galactic Center
We present the first high-precision proper motion catalog, tied to the International Celestial Reference System (ICRS), of infrared astrometric reference stars within R $\leq$ 25" (1 pc) of the central supermassive black hole at the Galactic center (GC). This catalog contains $\sim$2,900 sources in a highly extinguished region that is inaccessible via Gaia. New astrometric measurements are extracted from HST observations (14 epochs, 2010 - 2023) and transformed into the ICRS using 40 stars in c…

For #MusicWomenWednesday this week, a killer new find-- Melbourne, Australia's PHANTASM. Some really ripping hardcore punk here highlighted by the raw, furious vocals of Bernadette Fitzgibbon. Stumbled across this 4 song 7" EP 'Conflict Reality' that Phantasm put out in 2023 via Hardcore Victim, and I've really been digging it this week.

Machine Learning Power Week 2023: Clustering in Hadronic Calorimeters
In both high-energy physics and industry applications, a crowd-sourced approach to difficult problems is becoming increasingly common. These innovative approaches are ideal for the development of future facilities where the simulations can be publicly distributed, such as the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). In this paper, we discuss a so-called ``Power Week" where graduate students were able to learn about machine learning while also contributing to an unsolved problem at a future facility. Here, …

Optimizing Districting Plans to Maximize Majority-Minority Districts via IPs and Local Search
In redistricting litigation, effective enforcement of the Voting Rights Act has often involved providing the court with districting plans that display a larger number of majority-minority districts than the current proposal (as was true, for example, in what followed Allen v. Milligan concerning the congressional districting plan for Alabama in 2023). Recent work by Cannon et al. proposed a heuristic algorithm for generating plans to optimize majority-minority districts, which they called short…

Soderle, und hier haben wir nun auch noch die kumulative Grafik mit der Anzahl der Balkonkraftwerke.

Wieso haben wir eigentlich eine Dunkelziffer? Faulheit? Ungenehmigt?

Comparing observations of the closely located JUICE and STEREO-A spacecraft during the widespread solar energetic particle event of 2024 May 13
JUICE was launched in April 2023, and it is now in its cruise phase to Jupiter, where it is scheduled to arrive in July 2031. JUICE carries a radiation monitor, namely the RADiation hard Electron Monitor (RADEM) to measure protons, electrons, and ions, detecting particles coming mainly from the anti-Sun direction. On 2024 May 13, a large solar energetic particle (SEP) event took place in association with an eruption close to the western limb of the Sun as seen from Earth. Providentially, at tha…

Nearly Optimal Bounds for Stochastic Online Sorting
In the online sorting problem, we have an array $A$ of $n$ cells, and receive a stream of $n$ items $x_1,\dots,x_n\in [0,1]$. When an item arrives, we need to immediately and irrevocably place it into an empty cell. The goal is to minimize the sum of absolute differences between adjacent items, which is called the \emph{cost} of the algorithm. It has been shown by Aamand, Abrahamsen, Beretta, and Kleist (SODA 2023) that when the stream $x_1,\dots,x_n$ is generated adversarially, the optimal cos…

The Observations of Magnetic Reconnection During the Interaction Process of Two Active Region Filaments
We investigate the interaction between two filaments (F1 and F2) and their subsequent magnetic reconnection in active region (AR) NOAA 13296 and AR NOAA 13293 on May 9, 2023, utilizing high spatial and temporal resolution and multi-wavelength observational data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory, the New Vacuum Solar Telescope, and the Chinese Hα Solar Explorer. The movement of F1 from the southeast toward the northwest, driven by the motion of the positive magnetic polarity (P1), leads to a …

Run 2/3 measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment by the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab

Run 2/3 measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment by the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab
The Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab seeks to measure the muon magnetic moment anomaly, $a_μ=(g-2)/2$, with a final target precision of 0.14 parts-per-million (ppm). The experiment's initial result, published in 2021 using Run 1 data from 2018, confirmed the previous measurement at Brookhaven National Laboratory with a comparable sensitivity of 0.46 ppm. In 2023, a new result based on Run 2 and Run 3 data, collected in 2019 and 2020, was released. These datasets contain four times the data from…
