Intensivering grenscontroles tot op een niveau dat ze geloofwaardig worden is vrijwel onmogelijk, we hebben de mensen er niet voor, zoals ook door de KMar aangegeven. Tegelijk is er dan ook de politieke vraag, wil je die mensen dan allemaal aan de grens zetten of zetten we die capaciteit niet liever in voor criminaliteitsbestrijding en verhogen van veiligheid elders in het land, persoonlijk weet ik het dan wel.

Secure Multi-Key Homomorphic Encryption with Application to Privacy-Preserving Federated Learning
Multi-Key Homomorphic Encryption (MKHE), proposed by Lopez-Alt et al. (STOC 2012), allows for performing arithmetic computations directly on ciphertexts encrypted under distinct keys. Subsequent works by Chen and Dai et al. (CCS 2019) and Kim and Song et al. (CCS 2023) extended this concept by proposing multi-key BFV/CKKS variants, referred to as the CDKS scheme. These variants incorporate asymptotically optimal techniques to facilitate secure computation across multiple data providers. In this…

Accurate complex-stacking-fault Gibbs energy in Ni3Al at high temperatures
To gain a deeper insight into the anomalous yield behavior of Ni3Al, it is essential to obtain temperature-dependent formation Gibbs energies of the relevant planar defects. Here, the Gibbs energy of the complex stacking fault (CSF) is evaluated using a recently proposed ab initio framework [Acta Materialia, 255 (2023) 118986], accounting for all thermal contributions - including anharmonicity and paramagnetism - up to the melting point. The CSF energy shows a moderate decrease from 300K to abo…

By changing our diets now, we can avoid the food chaos that climate change is bringing
Climate change is pushing up the prices of the food that we buy and therefore changing what we eat. One-third of UK food price increases in 2023 resulted from climate change, according to research by agricultural economists. This extra cost contributed to food price inflation and the UK's cost-of-living crisis.

Density estimation via periodic scaled Korobov kernel method with exponential decay condition
We propose the periodic scaled Korobov kernel (PSKK) method for nonparametric density estimation on $\mathbb{R}^d$. By first wrapping the target density into a periodic version through modulo operation and subsequently applying kernel ridge regression in scaled Korobov spaces, we extend the kernel approach proposed by Kazashi and Nobile (SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 2023) and eliminate its requirement for inherent periodicity of the density function. This key modification enables effective estimation …

We provide two convergence results. A first result shows convergence with general entropies ($U$) (including singular and degenerate) if the initial datum d…

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…

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…

Solar Flare Prediction Using LSTM and DLSTM with Sliding Window Pattern Recognition
We investigate the use of Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Decomposition-LSTM (DLSTM) networks, combined with an ensemble algorithm, to predict solar flare occurrences using time-series data from the GOES catalog. The dataset spans from 2003 to 2023 and includes 151,071 flare events. Among approximately possible patterns, 7,552 yearly pattern windows are identified, highlighting the challenge of long-term forecasting due to the Sun's complex, self-organized criticality-driven behavior. A slidi…

The Density Profile of Dynamical Halos
Among the most fundamental properties of a dark matter halo is its density profile. Motivated by the recent proposal by García et al. [R. García et. al., MNRAS 521, 2464 (2023)] to define a dynamical halo as the collection of orbiting particles in a gravitationally bound structure, we characterize the mean and scatter of the orbiting profile of dynamical halos as a function of their orbiting mass. We demonstrate that the orbiting profile of individual halos at fixed mass depends on a single d…

Human-AI Technology Integration and Green ESG Performance: Evidence from Chinese Retail Enterprises
This study examines the relationship between human-AI technology integration transformation and green Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance in Chinese retail enterprises, with green technology innovation serving as a mediating mechanism. Using panel data comprising 5,400 firm-year observations from 2019 to 2023, sourced from CNRDS and CSMAR databases, we employ fixed-effects regression models to investigate this relationship. Our findings reveal that human-AI technology integr…

A Dormant Captured Oort Cloud Comet Awakens: (18916) 2000 OG44
We report the discovery of activity emanating from (18916) 2000 OG44 (alternately designated 1977 SD), a minor planet previously reported to be both an extinct comet or an asteroid on a cometary orbit. We observed 2000 OG44 with a thin tail oriented towards the coincident anti-solar and anti-motion vectors (as projected on the sky) in images we acquired on UT 2023 July 24 and 26 with the Apache Point Observatory 3.5-meter Astrophysical Research Consortium telescope (New Mexico, USA). We also in…

Phase II of the LAMOST-Kepler/K2 Survey. II. Time Domain of Medium-resolution Spectroscopic Observations from 2018 to 2023
The LAMOST-Kepler/K2 Medium-Resolution Spectroscopic Survey (LK-MRS) conducted time-domain medium-resolution spectroscopic observations of 20 LAMOST plates in the Kepler and K2 fields from 2018 to 2023, a phase designated as LK-MRS-I. A catalog of stellar parameters for a total of 36,588 stars, derived from the spectra collected during these five years, including the effective temperature, the surface gravity, the metallicity, the α-element abundance, the radial velocity, and v sin i of the ta…

Full Stokes magnetometry of the active M dwarfs AU Mic and EV Lac with SPIRou
We report in this paper circularly and linearly polarized observations of the young active M dwarfs AU Mic and EV Lac with the near-infrared SPIRou spectropolarimeter at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, collected from August to October 2023 over a few rotation cycles of both stars. Applying Least-Squares Deconvolution (LSD) to our spectra, we detected Zeeman signatures in circular (Stokes V) and linear (Stokes QU) polarization, and Zeeman broadening in unpolarized (Stokes I) LSD profiles, al…

A Tale of Two Shocks
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, . . . - for the thermal/suprathermal particle populations in the vicinity of two traveling interplanetary shocks observed by Solar Orbiter on 2023-11-29 07:51:17 UTC and 2023-11-30 10:47:26 UTC at $\sim 0.83$ astronomical units from the Sun. We investigate these two very dissimilar shocks and elucidate their non-equilibrium features. We do not provide explanations of all observed features, our aim is to report them here for future reference…

Spatiotemporal evolution of UV pulsations and their connection to 3D magnetic reconnection and particle acceleration
Quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs) are a common feature of impulsive solar flare emissions, yet their driving mechanism(s) remain unresolved. We study long-period (3.4 min) QPPs in the M3.7 flare on Feb 24, 2023, using SDO/AIA and Solar Orbiter/STIX to pinpoint their source and driver. We analyzed UV and HXR emissions from four subregions covering the flare ribbons and footpoints of the erupting filament. We find the QPP characteristics varied significantly across these regions. The strongest UV …
